Trump has a good shot at sweeping Bama. There's a 20% threshold and Cruz is in 2nd place with 20.1%.

EDIT: First results from Colorado, and Sanders has a slight lead.

EDIT #2: The GOP has a caucus today in Colorado, but it's a fucked-up one....they're selecting delegates, but the delegates are not based on any kind of Presidential preference. There will be another vote in April to determine who the delegates will vote for, and that's a winner-take all vote. So....yeah.

Some of it are probably those who were undecided and the late deciders.

Minnesota results starting to come in, Rubio has a bit of a lead. Maybe he'll actually win a state tonight.

Somehow Sanders is winning the only precinct to report while Clinton is winning statewide.

wat

*Shrug*

Maybe that's coming from absentee voters or something.

Hinsdale County, CO: 100% reporting, 14 votes, 10-3 to Sanders

A triumphant and decisive victory. I guess 7% of the vote in that county went to Vermin Supreme.

Hah.

Now that I think about it, I'm not sure Cruz could broker his dels without trading away his T party cred. What could he possibly win for his supporters that wouldn't still disappoint them over the fact that he played the insiders' game?

[RedKing]

Sanders sweeping every county in Oklahoma except Oklahoma County (OKC), presumably because it's about the only place in the state with any concentration of black people.

Yet, cross the Red River into northern Tejas, and it's about a 2-1 split for Hillary in most places.

President Trump. No US president has been assassinated in my lifetime, and I want to see the spectacle.

If Obama wasn't assassinated by the NRA crowd, what makes you think Trump would be by the Granola (and pretty much everyone else BUT NRA) crowd?

You mean in the convention? It's something that he doesn't exactly have a choice not to play. Well, he COULD chose not to play the convention, but he'd just lose that way.

Or maybe it's where theres a higher concentration of establishment people. Rubio also has that county.

Granola crowd? You mean the crazies? The Secret Service is pretty dang good at it's job (despite it's public shortcomings). So, short of some kind of insider job, I don't see it happening because it's like Mission Impossible difficulty.

I always wondered why the unabomber thought he was attacking the global order by hitting Oklahoma City.

The hippies I believe.  Judging by LCS they are pretty scary when provoked but I've never seen an angry hippie so I dont know how common that is.

Looking at Dem results vs. polling:

AL: Clinton +12, Sanders -8
AR: Clinton +12, Sanders -1
GA: Clinton +7, Sanders -0.6
MA: Clinton +3, Sanders +3
OK: Clinton -0.4, Sanders +15
TN: Clinton +4, Sanders +1.7
TX: Clinton +5, Sanders -3
VT: Clinton +2, Sanders +4
VA: Clinton +9, Sanders 0


Looks like a lot of late-deciders broke for Clinton, except possibly in MA and VT (and to a lesser extent TN) where they broke evenly.
And what the hell happened in Oklahoma? Did Hillary flub up and say "Hook 'Em Horns" or something? That is a huge swing. Or, given how bad they missed on the GOP side as well, did the pollsters just fuck up in general in OK?

[Descan]

I mean the left-wing. Hippies, socialists, Obama, you know, secret muslim kenyans. That sort.

Looks like Rubio will get his only state victory in Minnesota.

It might be that Sanders did well with Native Americans which was hard for the polls to pickup on.

From what I've heard and know, that anger got worked out of them during the 70's and 80's.

The left-wing really aren't the ones typically inclined towards terrorism right now. Not sure if there HAVE been any left-wing based attacks in the US in the last, say, 20 years, or perhaps post 9-11.

[mainiac]

Yeah, that's his point.  Hippies talk about president murderin' a lot less then the good old boys.

There have. Mostly eco-terrorism. Plus there was that one unhinged dude that shot a guard at the Family Research Council's office in DC.
