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!

Hillary is so arrogant and such a bad ass
nothing embarrasses her. Face it she hasn't an ounce of humanity and is incapable of feeling embarrassment. Embarrassment is a human reaction and a admission from inside yourself that you were wrong and made an ass of yourself. Do you really think she is capable of embarrassment? Not likely. She's a bad ass who is incapable of being embarrassed. Hey get real she will prevail as her sick reality is inevitable ad we are at war!
I don't think she's a "bad ass."
I think a "bad ass" is a pretty good person.
I think Hillary is just an ass.
(Just learned how to find comment replies
Hillary is making herself scarce today
For some reason, Hillary doesn't seem to be on the campaign trail today at all. Bernie doesn't ever seem to take a day off.
"We've done the impossible, and that makes us mighty."
Demonstrating her "faith" doncha know?
She's a real, and bonafide Christian, now that it helps her, so she's praying, or some such bullshit.
Her church 'the Family'
is just nasty so she doesn't really preach it's tenet's as it would freak everybody right out. Or maybe not some people like the concept that power is bestowed from above and any means regardless of how vicious and inhumane is 'worth it '.
How is Hillary not embarrassed with the results of
Washington and Alaska?
How is Markos not embarrassed
How is Markos not embarrassed over his calling it at March 15?
So long, and thanks for all the fish
Because he will not.
It does not benefit him.
Markos is a twit
Of the first order.
Anyone who thinks he has some 'wondrous political nous' is sure to lose any money invested.
He's just an average bloke who made good in the mid naughties.
Gëzuar!!
from a reasonably stable genius.
$$$ that's how
He demonized her, then *poof* became her worshiper to the point of totally fucking off people who post TRUTH about her, her policies, and her connections.
He's a paid shill and I seriously suspect the vast majority of front pagers are too, at least indirectly - which they're all fine with. Meteor Blades is the only one I worry about, which is stupid, because he's been a major force of social causes since before I was born! MB fucking ROCKS!

Only five precincts left
3 in Kings county (currently 66-34); one in Pierce (72-28); and Whatcom which will likely be well over 70% if neighboring counties are a guide. Looks like we've got our 70% margin!
Thanks for keeping track, A.
Please help support caucus99percent!
Only one county to go in WA and if goes to Bernie that is a
clean sweep for Mini Bernie's map!
I love seeing that whole thing colored that soothing light blue.

Clean sweep in Alaska too.

"Religion is what keeps the poor from murdering the rich."--Napoleon
Although
the delegate count still seems weird, the latest little google chart has Bernie at 72.3% Hillary at 27.5% in WA with the 93% of polls reporting in. Add to that the reports of wins strong in Hawaii despite the Hillary campaign hi jinks to suppress Sanders support votes, looks like a triple play for Bernie tonight!
I was hoping for some mega strong wins past Subir's 58-60% margins and Bernie, with so much support has crushed them today so far!
So long, and thanks for all the fish
still waiting for the Washington delegates to be allocated
hey, Christin got banned over there. Think she'll come here? That'd be funny.
poligirl caught her and her sock puppet.
It's at the help desk.
"Religion is what keeps the poor from murdering the rich."--Napoleon
I wonder if she was running my "sock"
That would be my guess, but dk admitting that would be admitting they were wrong in banning me.
I Don't know if it's true, but someone said that Kos reversed
Your ban and turned it into a TO?
Either way, fuck his oppression.
"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 looked. Still banned.
Quite a well-run organization. Guilty until proven innocent. Oh wait, we won't bother investigating since we hate you.
I read the speculation at the help desk that she was.
I would put nothing past her. Christin and Phoenix Woman are two peas in a pod. Now they're both bojo'd - until the come back as Zombies.
"Religion is what keeps the poor from murdering the rich."--Napoleon
They don't care why they banned you.
They just wanted you out of there. If not this, then the next thing. Still some good diaries there, but the comments turn to shit faster than Midas could turn things gold. As I look back on it, DK has mostly sucked for a while. All the sock puppet bullshit is more childish than thinking there's a monster under the bed with all the drama of pro wrestling on a soap opera.
Haha, agreed.
I read a tiny bit there on a Bernie wins thread. Same arrogance, same bullying of Bernie supporters. It's really pathetic. Kos gave them the stick to beat Bernie people with, and they are doing it 24x7.
This! Exact! eom
Someone sure as hell was....
It's wildly obvious that something rotten was going on especially because you of all people had no need of a "sock". You were constantly on the rec list.
It gets on my nerves, and you know how I am about my nerves...
Interesting, not surprising
"Kicked Out" is the least that should have happened.
She should be arrested.

Wow, just wow...
There have been other reports of shady stuff like this at some of the other caucus sites in other states as well but I thought maybe it was just an anomaly, but there sure do seem to be a lot of anomalies in to Clinton's benefit...
I hope if it's true someone gets charged, and if orchestrated I hope the roll on whomever put them up to it.

Terrible but no surprise
During our caucus today we all talked about potential issues or problems by her supporters. I have great notes and a diary that will be published by Monday morning. I took a picture of our precinct results. Working from my iPhone so was unable to upload it.
By the way, a lot of young independents for Bernie (at least 50%) that said they will not support Hilton in the general election.
Great day!
Cant wait to see what negative spin msm and the hrc camp put on these blowouts. Go Bernie! The Bird is the word!
They will call it too little too late.
And then go back to the latest stupid thing Donald Trump said.
NYT
Simple: Obama won big in 08. White and liberal population. Barely dings her insurmountable lead. The NYT used some of these words and all of this sentiment.
more news from hawaii ...

Well past my bedtime.
I guess I'll have to wait until the morning.
man, what is taking those last few Washington precincts?
We will have Hawaii results before Washington at this rate, lol!

Finally an update! Whatcom county goes for sanders!
making it a clean sweep in Washington! (He took over 80% in Whatcom!)

Bernie Sanders

Still have 3 precincts to go in WA, hoping to see sanders nudge
that lead up above 73%. That would be kick ass.

So
Looking at it so far
Alaska: Bernie
Washington: Bernie
Hawaii: Bernie
the winner for the March 26 primaries and caucuses? BERNIE!
Can anyone feel that Bern?
So long, and thanks for all the fish
Delegate count for the Evening at this point.
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
Did you post the wrong graphic?
Those look like percentages.
Alaska looks like Bernie +10
Washington probably Bernie +45 (ish)
If Hawaii holds current form maybe Bernie +9
That's a net +64 for Bernie. A great night indeed!

another hour for results to start coming in, based on that spread sheet, another strong one for Bernie to look forward to.
So long, and thanks for all the fish
Agreed! Lets hope its right!
I must say some of the Shenanigans I have been hearing out of HI are disturbing.
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
Agreed
Very disturbing, crazy and outright audaciously brazen stuff.

Let's be clear here...
Voter Fraud
which is extremely rare and mostly a boogeyman invented by Republicans to disenfranchise Democratic voters, is when voters commit fraud.
Election Fraud
which is as we see today, practiced by both parties, is when Election Officials commit fraud.
What happened in HI was election fraud, or attempted fraud.

All of the Democratic Party caucuses/primaries
are proportional.
There are viability thresholds that could prevent a candidate from receiving any delegates. In Alaska, Sec. Clinton must have been pretty close to that threshold.

Thank you
Alpha thank you so much for keeping the virtual fire going. I have been checking periodically I am grateful for all your hard work and efforts. This might be the turning point in the election.
Thank you so much! I agree, in an election that has been ripe
with Turning Points, I think this one is the big one.
This is the one that tells the rest of the states, "FUCK YEAH HE IS VIABLE AND CAN WIN!!!!"
And maybe I am a foolish optimist, but I think they are gonna listen, and more importantly, I think they are gonna feel Bernie's passion and jump in the fire and be part of the BERN!
Ahh, who am I kidding, one of my old LT's told me, "The problem with you is you ain't a glass is half full or a glass is half empty kinda guy, your more of a, "Who the fuck drank half my glass!" kinda guy and go looking for an ass to kick."
