Democratic Freak States Holy Saturday results thread (1st caucuses begin @1pmET)

[dspNY]

Are they counting absentees with these totals or are these numbers just the people who are showing up today?

Final tally in my caucus

Sanders - 45 (four delegates)
Clinton - 18 (one delegate)
Undecided - 3

Slight improvement for Clinton from eight years ago.

The delegate haul becomes 80% Bernie, 20% Hillary if this is true.

Did the undecided switch or something? 45-18 & 4-1 is strange!

The undecided would not be viable. 63 viable votes. 5(45/63)= 3.57; 5(18/63)= 1.43; 5 is a greater first decimal than 4, so Bernie gets the remaining delegate.

So what I'm getting is that my Google Trends prediction of Bernie getting 71.8% of the vote in Washington is about right on the money.

In a couple of precincts from what I heard Sanders won the absentee thing. Given the turnout, absentee is a small % & is not effecting much - Maybe I am wrong - People caucusing can give a better idea - Cheers!

True or false, Washington will be be Bernie's biggest state that he wins nationwide?

I'm gonna say true.

What about Michigan?

[MisSkeptic]

Yeah, I bet Washington will be feeling the Bern tonight! Now I'm wondering how well either he or Clinton will in California in the near future.

People on twitter are saying that old people are voting for clinton in their precincts.

WHY?

Why the F would an old democrat, one who remembers the new deal and the more liberal party of yore, vote for a third way milquetoaster?

Will be?

I'd go for CA - I know the sheer volume of folks we have & their passion - It's unreal, we area already close, there's time left - I think we will CA!

For whatever reason I thought Washington was bigger than Michigan. Doh!

Lot of old people for Clinton

Sanders is weeping the south & south-western part near Oregon - Pretty bad sign for Clinton in Oregon - He is absolutely sweeping areas near Oregon. Also doing very strong in areas around Idaho as well & the conservative areas.

I hope the western parts & Seattle does let Bernie down by making the margin of victory fall - Because he would be winning there as well but a lesser margin would dent the performance overall

[Matty]

so......when will results start coming in?

My super-unofficial twitter scraping (King County-heavy) has Bernie at a little over 75% of delegates in WA so far.

going by twitter reports was pretty accurate in utah on R side. I had cruz at 71% after adding all the tweets and he got 69.4 in reality,.

Seattle is a big city & could change a lot. I think if Settle doesn't play spoilsport, we will see Sanders crossing 70% & I don't think any Sanders supporters could complain with that!

[DrScholl]

Sanders needs to keep Clinton under viability in Washington in order to make a big dent in the delegate count.

Bingo. Originally, there was going to be an uncommitted delegate, but enough undecided voters made up their mind.

Under Viability means 100% of the delegates - All 101. I don't know what people want - More than 85% of the votes in all precincts to win 101 outta 101 Delegates?

Weird - Clinton fans would always have something negative to say!

[DrScholl]

There are a 101 delegates in Washington, if Sanders won all of them that would narrow the delegate gap by 100. That would be a lot better than narrowing it by only a few dozen. The point is a win means nothing to the delegate math unless it actually changes the count significantly.

[The Other Castro]

I have a feeling Sanders could break 70% based on these initial reports.

[RI]

King seems to be a bit more pro-Clinton than elsewhere, but still >70% Bernie.

[Xing]

King should still go easily for Sanders, though it might not be the blowout I was initially expecting.

[Matty]

any official results yet?
