Feb. 9th primaries & caucuses--Dem. results thread

[JohnnyLongtorso]

Washington, 65.8% reporting, 67.3% Obama to 31.6% Clinton

Has King county come in yet? If not, could Obama keep Clinton under 30%?

She's getting 29% in King County, so she'd have to do worse than that in the rest of the state to stay under 30%.

I knew it, the Clinton campaign has already spun that "he was expected to win there by large margins, he spent more money in these places than us...so we dont care."

in other words...you lost big and you couldnt afford to campaign there. Interesting....

Washington with 70.3% reporting, 67.2% for Obama and 31.6% for Clinton

Considering the number of robocalls Alcon got I would say she campaigned there enough.

By the way, everyone, don't pay attention to the LA results yet. Romney at 24% means that what we're seeing now are all absentees or something.

[Lief 🗽]

Also Edwards at 15% (though he will probably do better than usual, like 2-3%).

[Verily]

It's just a few precincts so far. Less than 1%.

What will be the impacts if Clinton gets shut out tonight (very likely), gets shut out Tuesday (likely), and gets shut out on February 19?  How will that affect the March 4 states of Texas, Ohio, Rhode Island, and Vermont?

She'd have to be shut out tomorrow, too. But I think it will look interesting.

Romney at 24%

ROMNEY WILL NOT GO DOWN SO EASILY

Well, Maine is sooooooooooo tiny by itself that it doesn't really matter a whole lot. (Don't tell that to the residents of Maine).

It partially depends on how well she spins things with the expectations game, but it would mean a serious loss of momentum. Superdelegates would possibly refrain from endorsing her, and it would cut into her leads in Texas and Ohio due to the momentum being on Obama's side.

That is what Obama needs to stand a chance in those states

I don't know. Obama was expected to win these caucuses. He, like Romney, does very well in them. He hasn't won a state that he wasn't supposed to win. He'll win Vermont easily, but I still think Texas, Ohio, and Rhode Island will go to Hillary, though closer than expected.

CNN has "updated" their exit polls. Obama 52.6 to Clinton 44.8 if you do the math.

That's exactly what they had before (only more specific).
