As Mr. Graham said, it's like choosing between being shot or being poisoned in my opinion.

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

http://www.politico.com/story/2016/03/super-tuesday-2016-dirty-tricks-220067 Lol sheneinighans. I don't really think any particular campaign is behind them as there would be plenty of independent trolls.

Also, CNN has called Sanders for Oklahoma.

His victory speech is already up on youtube:

In other news, Kasich is only 2% behind in Vermont and the Burlington region which favors him has the most votes unreported.

So...are we agreed that polling is basically worthless from here on out? Because these fuckers are blowing my predictions all to hell.

It has been determined that Trump is an average unladen swallow travelling northbound at his maximum sustainable speed of -3 Obama-cubits per second in the middle of a class 3 hurricane.

Basically RedKing means that the polls haven't been too particularily reliable, take Oklahoma for example.

Colorado results (democrats only) are starting to come in and it looks like it would be a close one.

What's holding up the Minnesota results?

It's interesting how Sanders absolutely dominated every single rural county in Oklahoma while right next door in Texas he does not appear to have a rural dominance.


Basically RedKing means that the polls haven't been too particularily reliable, take Oklahoma for example.

They dont seem to have been too bad for me.  A 95% confidence interval is supposed to not have the result 5% of the time.  If it doesn't miss 5% of the time, you are doing it wrong.

I believe they keep things open the latest, crazy socialists that they are.

And first results from Minnesota are in.  It's a 15 vote difference!  Somehow Sanders is winning the only precinct to report while Clinton is winning statewide.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

On the Dem side, Alabama is a freakin' massacre. Sanders may not even hit the 15% threshold.

On the GOP side....

Alabama: Trump is performing 8 points higher than polls, Cruz is 6 higher, Rubio is 6 lower, Carson and Kasich are roughly on target. Looks like the late-breakers went to Trump and Cruz.

Arkansas: Trump +9, Cruz is on target, Rubio +2, Carson -7, Kasich is on target.

Georgia: Trump is +5, Cruz +1, Rubio on target, Carson -1, Kasich -3.

Massachusetts: Trump +4, Cruz -2, Kasich +2, Rubio on target, Carson on target.

Oklahoma: Trump -3, Cruz +14, Rubio +3, Kasich -4, Carson on target.

Tennessee: Trump +2, Cruz +1, Rubio on target, Kasich -1, Carson -2.

Texas: Trump on target, Cruz +3, Rubio on target, Kasich -2, Carson -3.

Vermont: Trump +1, Cruz -1, Rubio +2, Kasich +20, Carson +1

Virginia: Trump -1, Cruz on target, Rubio +9, Kasich +2, Carson on target.




You know what? I take back what I said....the polling was actually pretty damn good, with only three real misses: Oklahoma, Vermont and Virginia. Bama is kinda wobbly and Arkansas has some swings, but the polling data was a month old there anyways.
