Alpha's Alaska-Washington-Hawaii Primary watchers thread.
Submitted by Alphalop on Sat, 03/26/2016 - 11:43am
Hi guys!
I missed the last couple primaries on here due to a combo of personal and a family members health issues so I figured I would check and see if someone had already jumped in to fill the void while I was gone. 
If not, we can do it again tonight on this thread or if someone is doing a better one just let me know and I will jump in!
Regardless of local, I look forward to watching the returns with you tonight! (Although I don't know if I will make it through to Hawaii being EST, lol!)
See you soon my C99P Peeps!

Seattle and environs not in
Billmon says vote there is splitting 50-50. Hard to believe, but if so, it's not over.
I am somewhat stressed about this and about the possibility of more dirty tricks.

if Seattle's 50-50 it's definitely fixed
Seattle's enough like Portland that there's no way Hillary could get 50% there.
Yeah, that must be from a very tiny precinct looking at how fast
it came in

OK, I just looked at the map
a)Billmon told me I misunderstood him; it's not Seattle but King County. b)it was only one precinct that came in 50-50, and looks like it was a small one: one delegate to each candidate.

Taking wagers
On just how close to 100% will be required for the first member of the MSM to call Washington. I'm thinking it's going to be ridiculously close to 50.
Do you think this would make the news?

My map shows King County as tied...50/50
Never mind...they just updated it.
Was told that was one tiny precinct with 1 delegate to each
and meaningless. More King Co. precincts should start reporting soon.

Hillary immediately Claims there's a vast Right Wing
Conspiracy, which is being aided by a even more vast Left Wing Conspiracy.
Which of course, is abetted by a conspiracy of white people, who are in cahoots with major minority celebrities...
(At a certain point, she really needs to look at the common denominator of all the people who dislike Hillary. That common denominator is "People who she hasn't bribed or intimidated properly")
I do not pretend I know what I do not know.

from a reasonably stable genius.
They had a decent chart guy on CNN
He was impressed with the size of these wins, used pledged delegates, and guessed that if Hawaii holds close to these percentages, HRC's lead goes down to around 230 from 304 at the start of today.
Wish I would have seen that. was still watching the live stream
of Bernies speech.
Man, he sure can get me fired up.

Hawaii
concerns me because you would assume they are big on Obama and so might go for the establ. candidate. This is just a personal impression. I've seen no polls or commentary. What do others think? Thanks.
i think it's gonna be another blowout
Got Tulsi Gabbard's emotional ad, plus strong Native American sympathies, plus just anecdotal reports of lots of Bernie supporters at caucuses ...
Hope so,
Sounds good to me!
Thank you, GrayWolf.
Take it for what it's worth, but they were actually showing a
persons ballot on CNN talking about the story and she's like, "This one isn't filled in" and the Camera zooms and the Sanders box was checked.
She's like, "Oh, this one is for Sanders!"

so if 74% is in from WA and Bernie's up big, why the dels?
there are over 100 delegates to be won in Washington. Why does Bernie show a lead of 18-5? How does that work? anyone know?
just corporate media dragging their feet
Basically, if Hawaii is a similar margin, HRC's lead goes down to around 230 from the 304 at the start of today.
Thanks for doing this, Alpha.
RAndy will be home from work soon. Better get dinner!

475 California delegates to be decided in June
if Bernie can win big in California....
Right now April 26th is looming large. A good result on that day plus big wins in Oregon and California would mean he could go ahead in pledged delegates. Wouldn't that be a surprise to some!

it's still early here in Oregon
I was born in New York City and, as a sports fan, got used to the NFL games starting at 1 pm and the late games at 4 pm. One of the things I liked about moving West was that those early games were at 10 am so I could roll out of bed and see the Giants play.
It's kind of like that now. It's coming up on 6:30 so Hawaii doesn't seem late at all. And we were able to take a nice afternoon stroll knowing that Bernie had won both Alaska and Washington.
Hasn't it made the evening somehow brighter!
I love basking in the comforting glow of all those feeling the Bern.
