Just got back from voting for Bernie in the North Dakota caucus.
There was very heavy turnout where I voted, about 400 people packed into a middle school cafeteria. People from 4 city districts in Grand Forks voted there, Bernie won the district I’m in 70-25.
I can’t remember the exact numbers, but Bernie won the other 3 city districts by a similar margin.
New Mexico numbers are holding steady
and they are almost identical to SD.

If only it was warm and had an ocean....
There are a lot of places I would choose besides Florida, but man, the never having to wear socks let alone a coat is pretty damn sweet, and the fishing, while worse since the spill, is still pretty damn awesome.
If Florida wasn't so awesome in some areas I would be gone for as bad as it sucks in others.

yeah, but I am a cool girl, my son is the hot one
so we will have Hawaii and ND duopoly. He doesn't respect me if I don't come to Hawaii and I don't respect him if he chickens out from the cold in ND. Bad parenting, I know.

The ocean is pretty yukky these days
and alas, will not get better with either Clinton or Trump in charge.
Yada, yada, yada Trump is bad: forty years from now our grandchildren will curse us for the Clintons' too, but "I've got mine".

One of the uber-machine politics states, NJ - a place to audit
results. They've been ready for today since IA. We need to be ready to reject the massively rigged process that will likely foist a historically weak and corrupt candidate on us and expect a nose-holding vote because...Trump.

I doubt NJ is auditable.
We have electronic machines here - at least in my county. No paper trail at all. Zip Zero Nada.
Screw "Efficiency" We need accuracy and accountability more...
We need to bring back paper ballots.
I never liked the idea of electronic voting, but then again that could be because I was a hacker back in the days of "Phone Phreaking" selling international calls at pay phones in Atlantic City to all the immigrants for cheap.

See mini Bernie here
We need more Mini Berni.... :) Oh, I know what I am gonna try...
Lets see, two Dakota's, one got called for Bernie right after I did a Dab, lets see if I do another the other Dakota will flip.
Either way, it's for a good cause.
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
Whatever it takes.
What's a Dab? Is that one of those funky acronyms that are going to confuse me forever? For my first few weeks here I kept seeing SOS Clinton and thought it meant "sack of shit". I thought wow. These folks are mean.
The people, united, will never be defeated.
A dab is when you
gesture emphatically into your raised arm, resembling a sneeze, and it comes from a dance
Weed extract
not an acronym. Some of the acronyms around here are a little confusing and I think I've figured some out, most of them referring to daily k. GOS = giant orange shit? TOP = the other place?
just some guesses!
Gold is the wealth of kings; silver is the wealth of commoners; barter is the wealth of peasants; and debt is the wealth of slaves.
GOS = Great Orange Satan, but I saw TOS tonight and
wondered about that because The Orange Satan doesn't seem Satany enough. Yes, TOP is either the other place or the old place.

I'm going to stick with giant orange shit
or gooey orange shit. or anything related to excrement. that's all that gets thrown around there anymore..
Gold is the wealth of kings; silver is the wealth of commoners; barter is the wealth of peasants; and debt is the wealth of slaves.
Great Orange Satan is the original, But lately I have changed
Satan to shit show since it seems more accurate and Satan is less scary...
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
The prospect of an orange turd is terrifying
much scarier than satan imo. I mean, orange poop is real
Gold is the wealth of kings; silver is the wealth of commoners; barter is the wealth of peasants; and debt is the wealth of slaves.
LOL! That's funny! Here we were even being a little
respectful! Your interpretation may fit better, though, actually...

To make Dab's is to make heaven in a little brown booger...
Basically you take a glass tube and put a fine micron screen on the end with a hose clamp and the other end has a very narrow opening that you place a Butane tip into.
You fill the tube with about an ounce of weed, and then inject the liquid butane through it and collect it in a basin.
Then you let that slowly boil off until it is down to a manageable amount of liquid and transfer that into another container lined with parchment paper.
After it has boiled down further (at room temperature it boils) you move that over to a vacuum chamber and set it at a negative pressure to evacuate the last of the butane.
What you are left with is 100% pure Goodness that you then place a bit on a stainless steel pick and then you heat up either a quartz or stainless steel "Nail" (basically a special type of bowl) and then heat the nail with a torch.
Once it glows, you remove the torch and touch the booger to the hot metal and it instantly vaporizes and gives you all the benefit with zero tar or other impurities.
Probably a longer explanation then you wanted but I got a buzz going so....
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
Too much work!
I'll stick to the old fashioned way: zig zags!
Gold is the wealth of kings; silver is the wealth of commoners; barter is the wealth of peasants; and debt is the wealth of slaves.
It sounds like it, but it's not to bad. I can make a months
supply in about 3 hours time. (Although that is work time, it spends at least 24-48 hours under vacuum and I like to be thorough.
Some people skip that stage entirely, but I like the cleaner taste.
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
I'm a fact freak.
So no explanation is too long as long as the information is concise and not verbose. Which you constantly succeed at. I was gonna say the same thing as the first respondent (along the line of zig zag is easier).
But in the interest of originality I'll just say I admire the connoisseur in you.
The people, united, will never be defeated.
oh yeah!
have you ever noticed obama's initials are BHO? I always get a chuckle
Gold is the wealth of kings; silver is the wealth of commoners; barter is the wealth of peasants; and debt is the wealth of slaves.
LoL! I never noticed that! How did I not?!? Good catch!
now that is some funny shit.
Despite his record, I would do a Dab with BHO just for the story.
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me

damnit. time to break out the bong

Holy Crap!?! Bernie Flipped Warren County in NJ?
I didn't see that coming, I thought that was solidly hers, yet its the only turquoise on the map for NJ
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
It was a huge flip too, completely out of line with the rest of
the state.
Maybe they accidentally released the "unfixed" totals?

Never follow these things but
I am interested in what happens in CA. Any word on that yet?
No numbers yet for CA. polls are open for another hour I think?
We should see something pretty quickly after 11EST.
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
Thanks man.
I think it would be hilarious if Bernie wins CA. Like, take that Little Ms. Warmonger.
LOL!
I think it would be "Oh, you won?" "Well, that's just like your opinion, man."
Props for the dude quote
I found a Big Lebowski themed bar near my apartment. It's a little too high brow. More "Jackie Treehorn" than "dude"
Gold is the wealth of kings; silver is the wealth of commoners; barter is the wealth of peasants; and debt is the wealth of slaves.
There will be nothing until the polls close in an hour.
I'm very interested in California as well. I voted for Bernie here today. This is the big prize of the night (475 delegates). If we can pull off a 65-35 split in California which is not at all impossible due to the record number of new voters registered in the past few months (don't imagine for one minute that all the new voters registered because they were enamored with Clinton).
If we pull that off the Clinton nomination will not be "inevitable" and the contested convention will be "inevitable"
The people, united, will never be defeated.
65-35?
I sure hope you are right. Or even sort of close. I've just been hoping he wins it even by 2%.
I'm addicted to Hope
When hope dies no more dreams will come true.
The people, united, will never be defeated.
Many NPP CA voters were given
Provisional ballots. Many people had their registration switched. Many people didn't get mail in ballots, but records say they did so...
But enthusiasm for Bernie and voting was amazing.

What is wrong with South Dakota? How can SD and ND be
so different?
Please check out Pet Vet Help, consider joining us to help pets, and follow me @ElenaCarlena on Twitter! Thank you.
It's caucus verses primary
Both are pretty red, with spots of blue. I'm disappointed that Bernie isn't running a little stronger in SD. FWIW, it looks like he's got majorities in Indian Country, except possibly Yankton.
"Obama promised transparency, but Assange is the one who brought it."
She won SD in 2008 as well
Slipped in while Obama wasn't looking. Then again, Mark Penn finally saw how the 50 state strategy worked--on the 50th state.
Meanwhile N.D. is rapidly laying claim to most rational state of
the evening, with Sanders leading by over 30 points!

N. Dakota does have that very successful “socialist” state bank.
Perhaps that helps them grasp the needed 180˚ change in federal policies better than most.

I didn't notice that till you brought it up, that's brilliant!
Is that done in Clay?
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
Thank you, Alpha. :)
It might be clay - maybe ceramic. I can't remember. I ran across it online at a garden center web site. It's an outdoor plaque called "Bird Watcher." When I saw it, I said "Bernie!"
So I stole it. (The picture, not the actual item. lol.)
Either way would have been justified! That is awesome!
That has to be done of Bernie, that can't be coincidence!
I want one! If they have more if I gave you the cash would you grab me one?
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
I think it's a coincidence.
A strange one, but I do. It's online somewhere so If I can find it again, you can order it online. I had been just googling around for outdoor items and ran across it, so it wasn't a place I frequent. I'm happy to look for it, but not tonight. I'll keep in touch with you about it. So glad you like it!
Done. You left enough clews. It's available a few places.
And in a few different materials. One place was sold out. I bet we're not the only ones saying, Bernie!

Oh, hey Alpha, found it!
Didn't know it would be so easy. One search and it came up:
Google shopping page
Kinda pricey. I'm pretty sure my avatar came from the Wind and Weather web site. It's down a ways on the page and says "Birdwatcher Stone Plaque by Carruth Studio." They are the most expensive. It is probably all the same plaque and widely differing prices.
Ouch! That is cool but damn, $45 is spendy for a plaque
I will have to think on that, if it was $30 or less I would have been all over it. )

See comments above, Alpha. nt
Torture. Yes, I know.
I can't believe I watched it. I had to know what she was up to.
It is apparent to me that the strategy going forward for her will be to just ignore Bernie. It's over. His campaign doesn't exist. She will mention Trump only. I expect Obama to say something tomorrow, an endorsement, and to begin campaigning for her asap. They all will just pretend, with the help of the media, that the primary is over and she is the nominee. No need to wait until a convention.
Thank you re the avatar.
First time in history a woman nominee will be indicted.
Hey, we can still hope....
