These stories of trading and cooperating for viability are remarkable. As are the stories about people who left after the first round.
The guy being on hold with party hq for a half hour is totally expected.

I'd be happy with that result JUST for this, I'm going to admit.
This here is peak caucuses, omg. It's horrible, of course, but, well, caucuses.
There's a merit to having small states as "preview" markets, not forcing a candidate to have to fundraise for NYC/LA/Chicago media markets and more all in one go.
Have Iowa be the preview market for the Midwest, everything from Ohio through the Great Plains plus Kentucky, NH for the Northeast, everything from DC up to Maine, SC for the South and Gulf, basically all of the ex-confederacy plus Oklahoma, and Nevada for the West, everything Mountain, Pacific, Alaska, and Hawaii.
Every four years rotate which of those states, and which region, goes in which order. Coordinate it with the GOP to have all primaries as open and on the same day.
Biden down to 4th with 13% but it's only 1.7% reporting so
it really feels like once Bernieworld turns on caucuses and Iowa this will be over come 2024/8

This was going to happen no matter what, especially with Bernie getting rekt on the 2nd round and then later on the allocation of delegates.
This is maybe my favorite thing to happen in the primary process so far.
Caucuses are dumb but this is hilarious.
Please show up to the debate just to troll everyone, Booker.
Cory Booker got a delegate out of spite from other candidates' supporters and now qualifies for the next debate despite dropping out weeks ago. He had previously whined about the debate criteria and now he's back in if he wants.
That's about all we know for sure so far.
Caucuses are cancer.
Real talk, the reason this is taking so long is likely due to the rule changes with more data. The data from each cacus site is sent out via phone calls, so... They're sending over 4 different types of numbers for each site, leading to... Well, a clusterfuck. Imagine being the person who has to write that down and never get any of the numbers in the wrong place.
Warren jumped like 400 votes ahead of Biden and broke 20%. Of course we still aren't even at 2% reporting so lol.
Bernie doing really well with Latinos and Muslims.
Iowa is getting ate the fuck up on MSNBC lol

I'M THREE DAYS FROM RETIREMENT AND THEN YOU THROW THIS CAUCUS AT ME!
It's like Game of Thrones but whiter, dumber and no sex or dragons.
I mean, if Bernie doesn't win the nomination in 2020, the Bernieworld voice is going to be diminished. Iowa should totally get rid of this mess of a thing, but it's going to take more than just pressure from the guy who came in 2nd two times in a row (possibly I'm not calling anything) to change it.
Only way I see this happening if there is some sort of deal where Iowa remains the first state, but gives up caucuses.
Im watching MSNBC and reading the chyrons and am in a state of confusion. Also I am pretty tipsy so i dunno
Eh. Hillary came out against Iowa (probably because she didn't do great there twice lmao) and tons of party people have been calling it racist. Can't see it lasting 8 years.
