It sucks when you live in the wrong state and the party decides to have your primary at the end.

Where do you live? Maybe next time your vote won't mean anything.

How about every primary is held on the same day?

How about shuffling at random every season?

How about we go football with some 'wildcard states' to replace IA and NH every time?

If national elections can take place on the same day, then so should ALL state/district primaries when federal offices are involved. And abolish the useless caucuses. Proper Primaries Elections or don't bother.

CA, is a toss up. But after the polls close in NJ, it won't really matter, Hillary with 65% there. No way a Democrat wins ND or MT in November anyway.

How mentally simplistic it must be. Sanders wins are righteous and pure, Clinton's win only through fraud and deception. How convenient that particular yet consistent irrationality must be to one's carefully-nurtured bias.

No doubt, creating your self-fulfilling prophecy this early leaves room for drinking later.

Is that it? Or do you just not want to admit she's the more popular candidate?

What is wrong with you?

Everyone who is anyone, knows the voting machines are owned and controlled by the establishment. Bernie is not establishment, so he gets screwed.

Obama got screwed by about 7 million votes, the math showed.

I guess if one is blind to the fact that votes get stolen, then none of this makes any sense to them and all they are left with is personal attacks on the Truth tellers.

Polls varying wildly between +1 and +15.

*something* is obviously broke with polling if they are that far apart, maybe cellphone users or some subtle demographic shift or first-time voters?

I wonder where such a huge gap is coming from and which agencies are going to be off by >10pts tomorrow.

It's easy to run astray with likely voter models in California when something closer to a basic registered voter sample has proven far more accurate over the years.

They still get to vote, but many pollsters don't even bother surveying them because hiring translators is expensive. And there's a lot more such people in CA than in most states.

NJ: Clinton
CA: no matter who wins it won't be decisive because republicans and future trump voters will have impacted the results and their will be many claims about election fraud and 'never going to vote for a democrat' participation in the primary
NM: Clinton
ND,SD,MT: Sanders cause Clinton is gonna take their guns
