Update on counts or nothing official yet?
[QUOTE=Sableye;49854569]Stop please, every thread, she has won 577 to his 386, lumping in superdelegates is just shit posting at this point[/QUOTE]
a dose of reality =/= shit posting lol. His post is perfectly fine...

I think the point is mostly the superdelegates can flipflop however they want, and have in the past. They are still up for grabs, and will be up until they cast their vote.

Supers can change their vote at any time iirc.
If he bombs Michigan it's pretty much over. He needs like 10% margins in each of these states except Louisiana [i]at minimum[/i].
It's getting to the point that he'll have zero chance to catch up. If he can't get very solid margins in these more northern states and claw back some delegates to at least tie out Louisiana's delegates and [i]maybe[/i] gain a few on Hillary, it's pretty much done for.
Saying this as an enormous Sanders fan who's been campaigning for a while and spent the day facebanking - if he has a net delegate loss today it's probably going to be the end of the ride. I'll still campaign until the last minute, but seriously, good margins are essential at this point to make up for Super Tuesday. If he loses Michigan, hardly a chance.

Don't worry, Hilary will get indicted in May!!! Then Biden will run with the DNC's superdelegates on his side.
Cruz has won Kansas and is currently in the lead in Maine with 18% votes counted
man sure felt REAL GOOD
to put my signature down for hillary

Super delegates aren't official until the convention and they'll almost definitely go to whomever wins the most delegates
For now, they mean nothing and aren't worth mentioning

I'm sure. Thank you for doing your civic duty and letting your voice be heard.

Which was my point days ago that every flipping thread they start by saying Hillary has over 1000 deligates, when most of them don't count until the convention and should not be part of any count until such time that they have cast their actual vote
If you support Sanders, [I]every last one of you[/I] needs to get out and vote/caucus for him if you live in any of these states. We cannot afford to sit this out.

What basis do you have to say this? For all we know they could be corporate shills and political elites looking to use the Clintons to rise in status or centrists that hate any idea of socialism

Bernie won't win, if he is nominated Dems lose the black vote and hand it to the republicans

The only thing Blacks don't like more than Bernie is anyone in the GOP.

Wow, Cruz is winning in Maine and tying with Trump in Kentucky.
Not everyone is in yet but the first few votes are looking mediocre for Trump.

I'd imagine they would still vote under party lines if the miracle of Sanders winning were to happen. It be like saying that Republicans against trump would vote against him if he were to win the nomination
sheesh, Kansas is taking a while to get in their dem votes.
I can't find the results for any of the Democrats in any of the states

It seems like Trump is quickly pulling away in Kentucky as the results come in, but any wins today are huge for Cruz. It further cements himself as the only real contender to Trump.

Does Trump have the black vote?
[QUOTE=Rangergxi;49875113]Does Trump have the black vote?[/QUOTE]
I think it's more that the black vote will stay home.

They announced that they won't be releasing results until everything is tallied

Louisiana is open until 8PM so I guess they're not posting until then
Shame I won't be able to vote. Oddly everyone I know is voting for Kasich
[QUOTE=Rangergxi;49875113]Does Trump have the black vote?[/QUOTE]
Strangely he does. I don't know whats wrong with the minorities liking Bernie, considering he's the one who fought for their rights and Clinton's the one who made it harder for them and will continue to do so.

There's very few minority voters in the GOP at all anyway.
To say he has the black vote is to say he has 5 black people voting for him across the country :v:
[editline]5th March 2016[/editline]
Trump has only a small lead in Kentucky and has lost in all other reporting states so far.
I guess to call Trump the nominee isn't true just yet.

True but they are indirectly voting for him, Hilary can't win. Too much controversy and what Donald Trump is good at is using that in the debate and destroying her. I wish I understood why the black vote is going to Hilary and not the man who has a real civil rights record.
bernie ballin in Nebraska
Caucused this afternoon for Sanders in Kansas, he won by a large margin in our precinct.
It was an interesting experience.
