I voted about 45 minutes ago. Yay democracy!

Edwards or Van Hollen?

High turnout in Providence can only help Clinton. High turnout in PA and MD is probably due to the competitive Senate primaries.

Yeah, I remember Mook downplaying Michigan after Super Tuesday and thinking there was no way Clinton could lose there.

Well, I used a bunch of free phone call apps to phonebank for Hillary in Rhode Island today. Tongue The 93-year-old woman was my favourite. Also a mom who I laughed with about Donald Trump. It's kind of fun!

I haven't been able to work up the nerve to phone bank. People say its actually a good way to tackle anxiety when talking to strangers but god forbid I screw up and push an undecided voter to the other side.

Well you have a script, and the people on the call list are generally voters who have been identified as leaning towards your candidate, or going strong for them. Phonebanking is more for pushing confirmed supporters to the polls.

If you don't look in Rhode Island's general direction on the map, you can pretend that the map is contiguous.

Eh, McGinty's not bad. With Trump at the top of the ticket, she'll win by about 4-5%. Bookmark this for the general.

I'm surprised Hillary won southwest PA.

Hillary has 45 precincts in Philly to expand her margin over Sanders to over 200k votes. I think she'll make it.

Maybe fracking played a big role in Centre county, but the students saved the day for Sanders.
