Republican Wild Western Tuesday results thread

[Seriously?]

In 2012, American Samoa held their "convention" at a restaurant. In any event, we'll hear from American Samoa last, as it straddles the International Date Line.

Ironically, Western Samoa (now just Samoa) is on the other side of the date line. Even though the capitals of the two countries are separated by about 78 miles. It's 2:30 am on Tuesday in American Samoa right now, while it's 3:30 am on Wednesday on Samoa. Wild.

[Seriously?]

didn't these newtworks learn from la?

So much raw vote total in at this point, there's no other conclusion that Trump wins big. Some of these margins right now, including the margin in Pima County (Tucson) is insane. He likely won the early vote with 65% there.

[Seriously?]

Cruz campaign manager Jeff Roe on Twitter:

At the risk of going full Rove here, stay tuned to AZ. We will lose but not anywhere close to current margin and watch election day vote %.
8:58 PM - 22 Mar 2016

Lol, is he really trying to spin what might be a 15 point loss instead of a 20+ point loss into some kind of victory?

You gotta love politics. Rubio would be giving his participation trophy speech right about now if he were still in the race.

[Seriously?]

Has there been any tweeted reports of caucus results that show Cruz under 50%?

yes, someone tweeted results out of a centerville caucus

kasich 57 votes, cruz 54 votes, trump 8 votes.

I wonder if there will be a divergence between the caucuses where intentions are more public and online, where it's strictly secret ballot and you don't have to care about what your neighbors think.

[Seriously?]

Did Republican vote-counters in Arizona adjourn for the evening or something?  It's been a while since any results trickled in.

It's been inching up slowly. Some of the polls in the Phoenix area were still open as of a few minutes ago. The lines were terribly long.

[Seriously?]

why are utah dem votes being couted so much faster. at almost 20%

Probably because they're urban

I think the Democrats finished their caucuses earlier than the Republicans.

[Seriously?]

is arizona not counting again until lines are gone?

They are counting. One would think they would not have results from the precincts still open until they closed shop for the night. The number is slowly, but surely inching up.
