Nevada Caucus Results Coming In--Bernie Declared Winner!!!
Updated again. Congrats Bernie!!!
Right now (9:54 PM NV time), second-alignment votes (1,046 of 2,097 precincts; 49.88%):
Sanders--46.6%
Biden--19.2%
Buttigieg--15.4%
Warren--10.3%
Steyer--4.5%
Politico is now showing Bernie as the winner. I'll change results as the day progresses, so check back!
Buttigieg has surged a bit, and even Biden has gained. Bernie is still very much ahead.
Sanders should (aside from shenanigans) win this one big. He is forecast by FiveThirtyEight.com to gain 19 delegates, versus Buttigieg's 6, Biden's 5, and Warren's 3 delegates.
This is really Buttigieg's last chance to make a big impression. After this, he is outspent and has difficulty in remaining states.
Warren really needs to land in the top two to be relevant anymore. It isn't likely to happen.
Bloomberg is not in play in Nevada. Too late to the game.
Biden stays relevant with a second-place finish. He is currently projected to win South Carolina, but just barely.

How odd that Mayo in 5th....
gets the 2nd most delegates.
Yes, that's correct if you use rigging math
Shenanigans have commenced
538 has good reporting

Lots of interesting comments
MSNBC has been top notch tonight
I swear Chris Matthews has called someone bawling about never going anywhere near Central Park again. He will age 5 years after tonight.
ETA (this guy is out of his tiny mind):
Matthews needs to get over himself
and sit out the rest of the election. But ain't it great seeing all the masks coming off today? His comment that Bernie's win is like the fall of France is so over the top. BTW has that idiot Jason been fired yet?
Anyone see that Bloomberg tweet crying about how mean Bernie's bros are while most of the tweets are from Trump supporters? I reported it for false advertising. As have lots of others.
There were problems with running a campaign of Joy while committing a genocide? Who could have guessed?
Harris is unburdened of speaking going forward.
Both he and Johnson deserve to be fired
And here is evidence that not all heroes wear capes:
There are some disturbed #Khive #Resistance whackjobs out there in the replies. I hope these people choose to live somewhere more comfortable with oppression, like Saudi Arabia. The Bernie rage is real and it is scary, but also confusing. Who the fuck cares if a sentient cabbage wants to work towards universal healthcare coverage? Watching these people going to bat for Joe Biden or Doomberg over poor people is disheartening.
#FireJasonJohnson was trending for a large
Portion of the night last night.
Not sure if it still is. Haven't checked today.

Screw that hack and his weak
Disingenuous non-apology.
He's not sorry about what he said, he's just sorry that people noticed and called out his dismissive misogyny.

I've been watching their hysteria on CNN
I was gonna set one up but my medical issues have had me up since 6am yesterday. Sigh
On a side note, I was just watching the coverage on CNN (Anyone know a better feed to watch it from?) Anyway, they were talking about Sanders comments about Bezos/Washington Post and clutching pearls about how this undermines people's faith in the media.
I was yelling at the TV, " NO! it's your lack of Journalistic integrity doing that!"
Then my wife went in her office to watch TV, she can't handle politics, let alone watching it with me. Lol

Twitter says Fox News is doing a good job
covering Nevada. I'm nauseated seeing the swine coming from CNN and MSNBC. Williams said something about killing Bernie. I'll try to find it again, but seriously? Why would anyone say that about anyone? The creeps don't even say that about Trump. Seriously the reality behind the news anchors mask is very ugly.

They really are a despicable bunch of out...
Out of touch elitists swine.
The progressive need to give up on trying to redeem the DNC and either start a new party or occupy the greens.
If they cheat Bernie again I hope he takes his infrastructure, momentum, find raising ability and army of volunteers to mount a third party run.
I was hoping he'd have done that last cycle.
If the Corpricrats in the DNC lose all the progressive members they will be down into the low 20% range at best.
He has the ability and his volunteers have the skills to make it so.

Hi, Alpha--good to see you back. Regarding
this,
If I'm not mistaken, because of the pledge/letter that Bernie (and, presumably, all the other candidates) signed, he could probably be sued by the DNC, if he should decide to make a third Party run. Right now, gotta run to the pharmacy, but, if I can find it, I'll swing back by, and post an excerpt, and a link to the pledge.
IIRC, it didn't just stop at him declaring that he's a Democrat, Bernie stated that he'll remain a Dem (regarding the Office of the President, that is)--and, 'govern' as one, and/or in the best interests of the Dem Party.
Thanks for hosting the Caucus Thread, this evening!

The media pundits are freaking out
Matthews calls Bernie's win like the fall of France. You know to the Nazis. Brian Williams and Carvelle are saying that Vlad's giddy as punch cuz he wants Bernie to go up against Trump.
But by golly even someone as dense as Joy Reid has finally seen the light.
Welcome to the club, Joy. You're right that young people are angry. This is their future they are fighting for.

OMG her face! Like she's fighting hysterical tears
Meanwhile, I wonder what is happening tonight in a certain guarded compound in Chappaqua. It must have the atmosphere of the Gambino family Christmas.
Democrats!
Figure out what YOU'RE going to do to stop Sanders!
Clearly, when she says "Democrats" she isn't talking about "Democratic voters" who are after all the ones voting for Sanders.
I wonder who she means?
"The greatest shortcoming of the human race is our inability to understand the exponential function." -- Albert Bartlett
"A species that is hurtling toward extinction has no business promoting slow incremental change." -- Caitlin Johnstone
She means the Regan Republicans
That joined the Democratic party when theirs went off the rails.
After all, the DNC leadership are all to the right of Regan.
We won't take over the party if Sanders doesn't win the primary and general and even then we will still face massive obstruction.
The only way forward for progressive voters will then be to start building a third party to force them into the dustbin of history with the Whigs.
They only represent 27% of all registered voters anyway so the pros of starting a new party are higher than the cons of trying to start a new one...

Go Amy!!
Has she thrown a chair yet?
Gëzuar!!

Can her campaign afford chairs at this point?
The chair still stands,
but everything else is shattered.
What puzzles me about her
is that her husband only found out she was running for the Senate via a news broadcast.
You'd think that would be a major family conversation.
Gëzuar!!

Really?!?
She sounds completely impulsive in every way. You have to duck from those types. Poor husband, and family.
I thought she preferred throwing binders

Now, she's really angry with her staff for her own shortcomings.

He's off the rail and screwed up telling the truth
I've been saying since 2015 that the Corpricrat wing of the Democratic party would rather lose elections than control of the party to the progressive wing.
They are so terrified of losing a little extra money...
Worthless, shilling scumbags and Matthews is among the worst.
Soulless hacks the lot of them...

What about the early voting?
I heard (Rising I think) that there were 70k votes cast during early voting last weekend, versus 85k total votes 4 years ago. They've had a week to count them, have we heard anything about those results?

They're counted in the results you see.
Regardless of the path in life I chose, I realize it's always forward, never straight.
The best part is
warren fans are pissed because the early voting almost finished before the debate.
They're saying her strong performance would have made a difference.

They’ve also just discovered media basis exists
So boo frickin hoo.

Warren deserves whatever she gets
She is becoming a little shit just because people saw through her.
This just makes you look small and petty Liz. You keep throwing Bernie under the bus after running on his platform.
Aaron nails it too.
The propaganda people are exposed to is enormous, but hopefully people are starting to see through it. Next they need to wake up and see the democrats for what they are. Centrists are pissed that Nancy impeached Trump on just a narrow issue and they want her to go back and do it again and get it right this time. Sadly though they aren't giving up on her.

Idolizing a politician is like believing the stripper really likes you.
I agree that this is on her now
She has taken her mask off too and what's behind it is not pretty. One of her supporters is ticked about how the media isn't covering her and blaming them for her campaign not going anywhere.
"People begged her to run last time, but now she is being ignored."
It has always been up to the candidates to get people to support them, but not since Obama lost all of those seats. Oh no it's the people's fault for not voting for him. Not his fault for betraying everything he ran on. Apparently we are supposed to just get over that and keep supporting him. Same thing with Hellary. Just because she went back on being a progressive after she won the nomination people still owed it to her to vote for her. How anyone can believe that BS is mystifying.

Yep people have forgotten when the media totally blacked out
any coverage of Bernie's campaign. Both during the last election and earlier this year. But poor Liz not getting exposure after she went back on almost every promise she made. Boo hoo and cry me a river. If you keep changing what you're running on then how can anyone know where you stand?
The media hasn't called out her many lies either. If Bernie had said he was black to get ahead he'd be crucified for it. But Liz still says she is Native American and no one from the media has ever talked about it. I hate cry babies and hypocrites.
