Portland Maine Democratic Caucus Just Became A Primary! (Reddit repost)

The line is so long that they couldn't fit everyone in the building. Apparently we are now filling out absentee ballots. Lots of confusion on the ground right now. I've been waiting in line with my friends for over 3.5 hours right now.

BIG turnout in Damariscotta. Went to caucus but I was registered REPUBLICAN!!!
WTF?! I've NEVER in my five decades been a Republican! But that's what THE BOOK says so I couldn't participate. Someone's going to hear it at the Town Hall Monday. Sonuva...#%?!#*!
