I will keep doing, but not worth it! The 2016 Presidential Primary Voting Thread

i'm sure that'll be the narrative he tries to sell ("they were plants! Cruz paid them!"), but I doubt it

This is hilarious

Well ok not the kkk stuff ugh

Xp

the "not having enough ballots, voting twice, no caucus site set up" shit is hilarious for sure

no way, haven't you been paying attention to his campaign? he'll shrug give a smug smile and say something like "my supporters are passionate" or more likely "i didn't ask them for their support," or something like that. calling them cruz plants would be totally off-brand

heh, good point!

― never have i been a blue calm sea (collardio gelatinous),

This didn't sound right. A reporter friend of a friend wrote, "The total size of the Nevada GOP caucus is about 37,000 people. Nine percent of that is Latino/Hispanic, which means 3330 people. Forty six percent of that is 1531 people. The total Latino/Hispanic population of Nevada, meanwhile, is 373,970. So we're talking 0.4% of all Latino/Hispanic people in Nevada, which statistically speaking, is NONE OF THEM."

But the 1531 people are a sample of the population? Statistically speaking

a sample of the population who happen to be enthusiastic about voting in the Republican caucus

The sample of the Hispanic people exit polled was likely in the hundreds meaning a huuuuuge margin of sampling error.

Plus Hispanic voters make up like 8 percent of registered Republicans so while it still would have some significance in the GOP nom if Hispanic voters eschewed one of their own for Trump, hardly means much for the Gen Elec.

"Marco Rubio's a nice young man, right?" Trump asked members of the audience. "I can't hit him, he hasn't hit me. No, no, he has not hit me. I'm treating him nicely."

But, Trump warned, "When he hits me, oh is he going to be hit."

Not to be confused with the guy he wanted to punch in the face.

do the Bern thing

He talks to his supporters like they're his pet pitbulls.

I'm not looking forward to a cruel and unusual president.

lol

DON'T NOMINATE REAGAN THEY SAID

PEOPLE LIKE HIM AND AREN'T PHYSICALLY REPELLED BY HIM THEY SAID

What is that map of? It's neither 1980 nor 1984....

Pretty sure that West Virginia is not voting Democrat in 2016 though...

it's 1980 but they got Georgia's vote wrong.

i bought one :)

at least as an artifact of the shitshow, dunno if i'll ever wear the thing

It's unfair to assume Cruz was the Zodiac Killer. We have no way of knowing the true face that lies beneath that shapeless, oily mask.

pretty sure first thing prez trump will do is shut down ilx

Keep Planned Parenthood and shut down ILX. Ok, you've got my attention. What else can we do to keep America strong?

"These people, they're not very nice you know ... They say they Love Everything . They love music, they love football, they love this they love that ..,and you know what? They're confuuused. They don't really know what they love. And they're sick ! Oh I don't even wanna tell you some of the horrible horrible things they say. Don't get me started on Ned Raggett ...what kind of a name is that? But like I said, they're just not very nice people and we're going to close them down and shut them up and we're going to make our country great again"

Wow, you've really perfected his cadence.

what might Don 'n' Glenn think?

Imus and Beck?

Don't get me started on Ned Raggett

Aw man.

who do these people think they are, trying to tell me what's a classic and what's a dud? Let the American people make up their own minds.

I actually think, I have to make deals with ILX and a lot of these people, they are great people. Terrific people. You know what they say we need to do? You know what they believe in? TAKING SIDES. They take sides. That's what we need to do. That's why we don't win anymore! Everybody says, Donald, you can't say that, you can't take sides, you might offend somebody! Well I'll tell you what, come 2017, that's outta there. We're gonna take the sides, we're gonna take the oil and we're going to win against ISIS, we're gonna win against Radiohead, and we're gonna make America great again.

tick vg!

"Picking only ten! That's for losers."

prescient: https://storify.com/sethnotshep/2016-gop-field

so apparently 75k people voted in the GOP caucus in Nevada compared to only 12k Dem voters. that's a pretty stark disparity for a "blue" state (per the last two elections), no?

Clinton's "wins" are that much less impressive when a few thousand people vote

Where are you seeing 12K? I see 84.

oops i guess morbz is very impressed w/ clinton's win now!

i suppose those #s aren't final are they

anyway, look at this weird shit

something fishy going on here

Wonder if the "Trump campaign" part of that is just an assumption or if there's anything to back it up.
