Democratic Ides of March Tuesday results thread (first polls close at 7pm ET)

Florida: Safe Clinton (Could be Sanders 2nd best Southern state)
Illinois: Toss Up (Not looking at the polls, gut feeling says Clinton)
Missouri: Lean Sanders (Plaines influence overpowers the Southern influence)
North Carolina: Safe Clinton (Will be Sanders best Southern state)
Ohio: Toss Up (Not looking at the polls, gut feeling says Sanders)

Very high turnout in Watauga County, NC, which could be good for college student turnout and Sanders.

Really hoping that Sanders can win some CD's in NC.

[Gass3268]

Big turnout in Orland Park (Black area in Chicago), IL, which is good for Clinton.

Orland Park, IL is 93% white and is in the Chicago Southland which is relatively blue collar. This could actually be one of Sanders best areas in Cook County.

It's also the type of area that could go big for Trump.

Very true, I imagine Trump and Sanders are both going to do really well in CD-3.

NC being NC - With stupid voter laws & ID's & so many provisional votes being cast by students. Possibly being loss for Sanders - This non-sense was not there last time in 08, GOP Governors!

And Bill Clinton being Bill Clinton - Violating 50m rule in & around Chicago - I think he did the same in NH or somewhere else

He did the same in MA, Hillary is doing events at polling places in NC too.

Dad voted for Sanders in Missouri, don't know yet about his wife.

Sanders has been running a nasty and divisive scorched earth campaign based mostly on personal attacks for the past month, so this isn't surprising.

There hasn't been any personal attacks on the Demoratic campaign. Clinton makes this statement in every debate and rally I've seen.

LOL! I mean how with honest face can you even think to write that..

These guys are nasty people - Paid Interns whose job is to throw dirt - Incapable of having a reasoned discussion.

I am seriously contemplating how much better Clinton would be compared to the Trump monster of the maniac Cruz now despite her being a phony! I would probably also say "Unsatisfied"

Clinton is of course better than any and all Republicans!

[Gass3268]

From CNN: Ohio is 76% White, 19% Black

What was Michigan?

[Gass3268]

The trustworthy numbers are killer for Clinton in MO and OH.

[Gass3268]

North Carolina almost as Anti-Trade as IL/MO? WOW!!

The US lost 900,000 textile jobs between 1994 and 2005, and I think hundreds of thousands of those were in NC.

I expect Trump to dominate in those areas on the GOP side.

[Gass3268]

MSNBC says Ohio is too early to call in Ohio, with a Clinton lead. Poop.

[Gass3268]

Sanders did better with whites in NC than OH?!?

[Gass3268]

Clinton is up on the absentee vote in NC, but her numbers are not that strong in Western NC.

[Gass3268]

If the racial numbers are accurate in Ohio, I congratulate the Clinton supporters on the site.

[Gass3268]

It's all early vote in Ohio so far.

She's done well with early vote everywhere too.

[Gass3268]

If Sanders can't win Mahoning County then his campaign is useless from now on.

There is a black core to the city of Youngstown. Probably from there.

[Gass3268]

I assume Florida gets called at 8.

Both sides

[Gass3268]

WHAT THE [INKS] IS CHRIS MATTHEWS TALKING ABOUT WITH KASICH AS CLINTON'S VP?

[Gass3268]

North Carolina results are showing me why Sanders screwed up by not targeting the Appalachia regions in GA, NC, TN, and VA.

[Gass3268]

Florida exit poll:
whites: Clinton +7
blacks: Clinton +56
Latinos: Clinton +38

Illinois exit poll:
whites: Sanders +20
blacks: Clinton +39
Latinos: Sanders +7

Missouri exit poll:
whites: Sanders +15
blacks: Clinton +39

Holy Illinois Latinos!

[Gass3268]

Hillary ahead early in Missouri as well 65% to 30%.  This is a slaughter.

Clinton has lead in the early vote/absentee vote in every state.

[Gass3268]

Bernie only up 51-48 in Orange County, NC (Chapel Hill).

Only 1 precinct, probably early vote.

[Gass3268]

I wish we could scrap the superdelegates.

Dude, what does that have to do with anything? Clinton is winning by a lot regardless of the superdelegates.

[Gass3268]

Congrats to Clinton supporters.
