Ummm....

9% of Clinton voters would back Trump over Clinton
39% of Sanders voters would back Trump over Sanders

Looks like we may have some Trump supporters causing shenanigans in WV.

More like a closed primary with lots of conservadems

Huh? Are you sure that's not a typo, and that it shouldn't be 9% of Clinton voters backing Trump over Sanders and 39% of Sanders voters backing Trump over Clinton?

Not a typo

I know I mentioned this but the early exits in Indiana did not take into account early voters, is it the same here? That could boost Hillary somewhat.

The first exit polls in Indiana had Sanders up 53-47 IIRC and the final was Sanders 52.5-47.5.

Are you sure? I could have sworn the first exits were showing a Sanders +10 win.

Looking back, it was 55-45 on CNN, but I'm pretty sure they always take the early vote into consideration. There's selection bias problems, though.

Who's listed first on the ballot?

It varies by county.

Anyone else shocked of how close it is? I expected Bernie to demolish Hillary at the start. I bet the delegate spread will be tied.

Way too early to conclude that.

where are you watching? It is not, yet, on NYT.

NYT's usually behind. CNN's faster.

Clinton now back down to a 0.1% lead.

More of Monongalia came in, which is where WVU is.

Sanders has over 2.5x as many votes as Hillary in Logan County, which lies in the heart of coal country.

Nebraska:

Clinton 10835 (61.26%)
Sanders 6851 (38.74%)

All early vote, I think?

I think that is the caucus result for a couple of months ago

No, Sanders won the caucus

Nebraska Dems are not voting today. Only Reps.

Nope. There's a beauty contest there

Sanders' campaign is such a joke. His entire campaign strategy was to win places where the vast majority of the electorate is disenfranchised (caucuses) or by tacitly appealing to racists and misogynists (OK & WV.) And to top it all off he still lost in a landslide! Hope it was worth it to him represent the party's vilest elements! Good use of 100 million dollars!

Why should his campaign worry about a beauty contest?

If he loses the Nebraska primary, it might bode poorly for the South Dakota primary.
