Bernie Sanders has been winning about 68.9% of the votes that are still being counted in Oregon!

UPDATE: The Oregon Primary Strikes Back!

Greetings, my beloved friends! I have a special treat for you, today — and it has to do with the real numbers of the Oregon Primary that took place on Tuesday, the 17th.

First, a Bit About
How This Article Happened

I know that many of us (me included) felt somewhat disappointed by the Oregon results — we had hoped to win a bit bigger there. Indeed, I expected us to! Alas –! On the night of the 17th, around 60% of the vote was reported very quickly (those were the earlier mailed-in ballots) — then, we watched as the percent of the reported votes crawled slowly up to around 92%, at which point I collapsed from exhaustion around 4:30am. The next day, our numbers continued to rise (but at a snails pace!) until the Associated Press was reporting that we had won Oregon with about 56% of the vote, with about 93% of precincts reporting. On the night of the 18th (if I remember correctly), the % of precincts reporting stalled at 95.5% and hasn’t moved since (I’ve been watching it like a hawk!).

Then, today — the 19th — I grew impatient!

I thought to myself, “I’m going to call the Oregon Board of Elections and see what’s taking them so long!” Yesterday, at some point, I had learned that Oregon doesn’t have precincts (because of our mail-in ballots) and it therefore seemed odd that the AP was reporting that 95.5%, or 955 out of 1000 precincts, was reporting.

1. That's why I mentioned to you that the last delegate count for Bernie was updated from his number :)

2. Thank you! And thank you for all that you do and share! I am exhausted from so much

going on not only with the election, but in my personal life at the moment. I went to bed last night and slipped into a coma. Just woke up and read this good news!

Today is my birthday, so I'm busy yet again today, but at least I"m refreshed again!

4. Happy Birthday!

3. Interesting, and something I haven't seen/heard before.

This is the sort of wonky story Rachel used to cover.

6. I've been reading his posts for some time now. I do believe his writings are responsible for a lot

of the snarky posts around here about Bernie Math.

7. No wonder the queen, the DNC, DWS and the CORRUPT Corporate Owned MSM are apoplectic!

They know Bernie has a VERY GOOD CHANCE of ending up with more pledged delegates than the queen 👑....going into the convention. And that means the SDs would be OBLIGATED to vote for Bernie or face the consequences. If California turns out in huge numbers for him (and it looks like they will), he could do that!

I absolutely LOVE reading John's stuff! It's a real pick-me-up!

Thanks for posting!

PEACE
LOVE
BERNIE

9. HRC won ONE county (Gilliam) by ONE vote.

101 votes to 100 for Bernie

Thanks for this article. I was bummed Oregon wasn't a huge blowout like Washington.

[silvershadow]

10. Well it was the only county she won! So it basically was a blowout. :D nt

[Ino]

11. Not a voting blowout

He won Washington by 45.6 percentage points!

Oregon by only 12 points (so far). I had expected so much more (sigh)

[silvershadow]

12. It continues to climb. Look at John Lauris' math page, updated today. I posted it earlier

here in the group.

13. Yah... this thread!

That's why I thanked you for the article I had been bummed, but I see it's still improving

[silvershadow]

14. It does appear so. If this pans out, we are still where we need to be. :) nt
