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!

I could go on KOS and right a Diary about how pathetic it is
that Sanders only won by 72.7% and not the 73 I was pining for I suppose.
Think that would be humble enough to avoid being buried in flags?

don't waste your time.
Regardless of the path in life I chose, I realize it's always forward, never straight.
Probably sage advice you just gave, lol!

I know! Right? That really kinda creeped me out, and for the
record, I literally spent 13 years interacting daily with murders, child molesters and some of the most viscous gang bangers you could imagine, and even in them I seldom saw levels of actual giddiness over killing.

Well, Sanders one EVERY district in Ak by 70% and WA by 60%
or more.
Lets see how the Media spins that to suit the narrative tomorrow.
Or, I guess they could just do like tonight and do reruns about Jeebus!
They seem to be more comfortable with Fantasy over Reality, so it could very well be the latter.

Latest unofficial HI update: Another Precinct another increase

It's a small one, but with 106 precincts still to go every small one adds up.

Lets call these media punks out for their shenanigans. There is REAL news and history being made and they are twiddling their thumbs?
Hmmm, I wonder why...

Before I pass out
I wanted to give a big thanks to you Alpha. It take more than a little fortitude to see our dreams being realized.
I'm going to stay until the first official counts are posted. Then I may just make it an all nighter just for fun. It's been a whole month since I've seen the sun come up twice without a nap.

I think I might be right there with you buddy!
The cocktails are going down smooth, the spirit is high and the Bern is stoked.
I think I may have to stick it out to the results are in. I don't think I could sleep with a handful of Klonopin right now.

Believe it or not, my current favorite Spiced Rum is from Costco
They have an amazing one, in a great solid corked decanter with a TON of character for a silly cheap price!
When I can find it they have a pretty amazing Scotch for around $35 a bottle that is better than some of the stuff I have had at 3 times the price.
The also have an amazing Vodka that is cleaner than Grey Goose or most of the other "Top Shelf" ones for like $18 for a 1.75L bottle.
Costco is such a great company with solid products that treats their employee's well so I love pimping their stuff.

Jersey was the first place I found their Rum, The scotch I
Started buying back when I lived in the Reno area.
Was way easier to get both there and NJ than down here in Florida. 3 years now and EVERY time I get to Costco they are sold out of the Scotch. It's so good it just doesn't sit on the shelf long down here compared to when I lived in NV or NJ for some reason. I even offered to bribe the clerk to put aside a case for me but no joy. Damn ethical people....
Next time I go home if they have it I am buying a case and just shipping it down here.

Yes, unless she is non-viable in a precinct they are awarded
proportionately.
She came real close to that in Ak tonight, REALLY CLOSE....

Strange jump in the spreadsheet.
Now it says 80.89 to Bernie with 153 precincts reporting!
I counsel taking a fairly large grain of salt when consuming this information.

Could have just been someone misentered some data
and then quickly corrected it?
It's just us "Citizen Journalists" doing the work since all the "Pros" decided to call it a night since nothing news worthy was occurring.

Yeah, that's what I thought.
I was kinda hoping that the errors were made early on, and they had been corrected to 81%. That would have been awesome!

Well so far it looks like our unofficial forecasts from our
fellow citizen journalists were pretty spot on!
Way to go to all those that helped compile that information tonight! Amazing job!
We don't need no stinking media...
"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me
Less than 1% off.
That's amazing! The error in Alaska was about 3%, which is pretty amazing in itself. They missed Washington by 8%, but that's still pretty good for self-reporting.

Yeah, it really was impressive.
I am so proud of the work all our fellow citizens have done to keep us all informed in the face of the #MediaBlackout.
Seriously, much love to all of those that shared information and added to the unofficial spreadsheet, it was truly an amazing feat considering the accuracy and quality in the face of a total lack of "official" information.
No wonder this whole "intertubes" thing has the PTB in such a tizzy.
The fact that we can inform ourselves quite accurately without them has to have them in a bit of a panic.
Nobody likes to feel unneeded or irrelevant, and the MSM is rapidly proving they are both!
