I was actually worried someone had seriously reported you for sockpuppeting because of the jokes.

You see that IP address at the lower right hand corner of your posts?

Yes...but I don't know yours nor his, and I don't know that that's the sole criteria Tarn uses. It's not that difficult to have two different devices with different IPs (my cellphone connecting over 3G would have a totally different IP range than my laptop on home wi-fi, for instance).

Hm, some reports of voter fraud in Arizona: http://usuncut.com/news/arizona-polling-disaster/

Voter fraud is not the correct terminology here: that's only when the voter themselves have committed the fraud.

If it's deliberate, this is what is called vote suppression.

Yeah you're right actually.

Only you can see your own IP address anyway.

Yes, but you probably use both to post, right? So both have been recorded...

Buying an entirely new phone just to post on a forum with multiple accounts without getting banned would be pretty ridiculous. I'm not saying impossible, just... why would you bother?

Our (newly acquired?) Brazilian communist seems to be gone also. It's possible they were both the same person.

I know, I meant as far as forum users go.

Anyway REALLY early results in Arizona and Trump has more than twice that of Cruz, similar for Hillary too.

Nah, Magistrum has like nearly 1000 msgs. He's just missing from here because Toady did a blunt object removal. Hopefully, he'll come back and post some. Could always use more non-US, non-European viewpoints.


The results being shown from Maricopa County are apparently the early-voting absentee ballots. Apparently Trump benefitted from 18 percent of those going to Rubio (and hence not Cruz or Kasich).

The Guardian's AP livefeed of the votes has already called Trump for Arizona. Arizona is total WTA, so, whether or not he reaches 50% there doesn't matter, but would be significant if he did breach 50%

Ah, nevermind then; couldn't remember their name so I couldn't search for 'em. I was going to applaud the anonymous user for their dedication to character creation, but that was just too much to hope for.

Looks like Arizona had a lot of absentee ballots in both parties. I wonder if that's standard there?

@Magistrum: The proletariat salutes you, though in America the Proletariat is too busy watching Netflix to rise up and seize the means of production.


Clinton's got Arizona, by virtue of getting Maricopa county. Arizona is one of those "80% of the state lives in one place" wastelands. Sanders likely to win Idaho and Utah, but Arizona counts for more delegates than Utah and Idaho put together. Sadly, this is one Bernie really needed to win and win strong. He never developed the kind of support in the Hispanic community that Clinton to offset Hillary's black bloc and her dominating wins in the South.

Nah, I remember you. I just don't post in politics very often. Especially American politics. All I know about America I learned from Hamilton and Trump memes. And that's the way I want to keep it. More fun that way.

Communism is good and awesome and all that.

World's much simpler when there's obviously two sides and you can justify any action with that

It might have something to do with my former name being David The Master, but that was in a time before time.
Just bumping to say that this primary thing is totally bonkers, it is just a bad way to mitigate the spoil effect of the voting system.
