Make unfounded or misinformed assertions, then pick fights with people over semantics when the allegations are proven misleading or contrary evidence is provided.

Just a guess, but I'm pretty sure it's intentional.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

So, NH was a semi-open primary, apparently. [View all] bluewater Feb 2020 OP

right keepthemhonestO Feb 2020 #1

You can only pick D or R if you were previously undeclared Dem2 Feb 2020 #5

And repubs could NOT switch by then. squirecam Feb 2020 #10

ok keepthemhonestO Feb 2020 #23

People who are reistered as "undeclared" were allowed to vote. bluewater Feb 2020 #26

No squirecam Feb 2020 #33

Yes. Voters registered as "undeclared" were allowed to vote in the Democratic primary in NH. bluewater Feb 2020 #43

You have not made your point squirecam Feb 2020 #44

lol My point is simple and has been proven. bluewater Feb 2020 #46

No that was not your point squirecam Feb 2020 #47

lol we were discussing REGISTERED "undeclared" voters, that still seems to escape you. bluewater Feb 2020 #56

Stop digging..... squirecam Feb 2020 #57

Wow - those are almost exactly like the final results! jmg257 Feb 2020 #58

Imagine that squirecam Feb 2020 #59

Warren did 4% worse with the registered undeclared. bluewater Feb 2020 #64

Yes - Amy did a little bit better...a big issue going in was the battle for the undeclared. jmg257 Feb 2020 #67

NH takes its job seriously squirecam Feb 2020 #68

Going in, semi-open could make you nervous, but with so many discontent with trump, jmg257 Feb 2020 #69

"You tried to claim the results were tainted by ratting." FALSE, nice strawman attempt. ;) bluewater Feb 2020 #71

oh ok keepthemhonestO Feb 2020 #21

Works the same way in Maine primaries Zing Zing Zingbah Feb 2020 #35

Good, because caucusing sucks Dem2 Feb 2020 #37

When you are registered as undeclared, when the election, such as this primary has Democratic snd CentralMass Feb 2020 #27

What is your point? squirecam Feb 2020 #2

More cheating True Blue American Feb 2020 #4

Cheating how? squirecam Feb 2020 #6

+1000000 wisteria Feb 2020 #30

My point is NH was a semi-open primary. bluewater Feb 2020 #7

And? squirecam Feb 2020 #8

Um, everyone running was a Democrat. bluewater Feb 2020 #12

I assume most of those 33% "undeclared" Republicans either didn't vote, or voted (R) Dem2 Feb 2020 #14

That's quite the assumption. bluewater Feb 2020 #18

Did you watch the returns on MSNBC last night? squirecam Feb 2020 #17

"Because this question has already been answered." bluewater Feb 2020 #20

No they are not squirecam Feb 2020 #28

You seem confused about what "undeclared" voters are in NH. It's an official catagory. bluewater Feb 2020 #34

No you are the one confused. squirecam Feb 2020 #36

This is kind of the OP's thing. TwilightZone Feb 2020 #77

Yes squirecam Feb 2020 #78

Now the strawman argument becomes an ad hominem attack? bluewater Feb 2020 #80

Failed to win a discussion? HeartlandProgressive Feb 2020 #81

"No republicans could possibly vote." You still seem confused. bluewater Feb 2020 #79

Thank you Dem2 Feb 2020 #24

Again, are there links to anything official you could provide? bluewater Feb 2020 #25

Live TV Dem2 Feb 2020 #31

All righty then. No links to any actual data. bluewater Feb 2020 #38

What evidence do you have? Dem2 Feb 2020 #40

You made the positive claim the "undeclared" tracked the same as registered Democrats. bluewater Feb 2020 #41

Hmmm, I'm not liking this sort of discussion Dem2 Feb 2020 #42

You made the positive claim, the burden of proof is upon you. bluewater Feb 2020 #45

Bluewater squirecam Feb 2020 #51

Oh there's proof... jmg257 Feb 2020 #55

Thanks for the link, but you posted only half the story. bluewater Feb 2020 #61

Yes - thanks - the bar below the Undeclared noted the Registered as Democrats jmg257 Feb 2020 #65

Nice Dem2 Feb 2020 #70

Aw - thanks so much!! Cheers!! nt jmg257 Feb 2020 #75

Seems so Dem2 Feb 2020 #62

Exactly squirecam Feb 2020 #66

You keep pushing strawman arguments. bluewater Feb 2020 #72

Here ya go .., jmg257 Feb 2020 #49

+100000 wisteria Feb 2020 #32

According to Kornacki, they followed the trend of those registered as Democrats pretty closely Dem2 Feb 2020 #3

Since 41% of the NH electorate is undeclared, that's a LOT of Republicans. bluewater Feb 2020 #9

No way to know Dem2 Feb 2020 #11

Do you a have a link where they showed most of the undeclared tracked like Democrats? bluewater Feb 2020 #13

The undeclared results as read by Kornacki aligned with the overall totals Dem2 Feb 2020 #16

Do you have any links we could look at? Anything from official sources? bluewater Feb 2020 #22

Do you have any links that can support your assertions? Ace Rothstein Feb 2020 #39

Here- knock ur self out! jmg257 Feb 2020 #48

nothing in there that tracked how REGISTERED undeclared voters voted. bluewater Feb 2020 #50

Sure it does... jmg257 Feb 2020 #53

Love it! squirecam Feb 2020 #60

It was down in the subcatagories in the drop down menu. bluewater Feb 2020 #73

NP! That's why I said "knock yourself out..." :) A ton of data there that needed some jmg257 Feb 2020 #74

Good. The dis-illusionment due to trump continues...Get them votes!! jmg257 Feb 2020 #15

That IS a good sign. n/t Laelth Feb 2020 #19

Yes, I wondered how many Trump spoilers voted last night. wisteria Feb 2020 #29

Little to none squirecam Feb 2020 #63

Me too. I was wondering the same thing. bluewater Feb 2020 #76
