Well it’s Iowa tonight. Give me the top three R’s with percentages. And the two nitwit D’s with percentages.
Question of the day, Feb 1
Well it’s Iowa tonight. Give me the top three R’s with percentages. And the two nitwit D’s with percentages.
Bea, the polls were more accurate than I thought. I thought trump would overperform. Didn’t happen. The bad news for cruz and rubio would be if the polls continue to be accurate.
And let’s give credit where it’s due. ILuvC02 with a perfect prediction at 5:31. Very impressive
Since the only people willing to even try and explain the world today in cogent terms are already on TPB, would someone, anyone, please try and explain to me why the media deliberately showed the tallies for the Iowa Caucuses in such a bifurcated manner.
Democrat reporting showed delegates awarded all night long on every major media platform with the final tally of Clinton 696 Sanders 692- no vote totals anywhere that I can find.
Per CNN-

Republicans on the other hand were shown with totals-

However the number of delegates awarded to the republicans are single digits.
What’s up with disparity in reporting?
Are you Trumpet-eers suicidal today?
Wha’ happened????
Iowans eat shit.

This is just a GUESS …….. but the Democraps have something called super-delegates and they can vote ANY way they want, regardless of the people’s voting ………… sooooo, again, I’m guessing here, but it might mean that Bernie actually WON the popular vote, but Hillcunt got the delegates.
Can anyone find the number of VOTES cast for the democrats last night. I have gone through every major news reporting org and cannot find a single mention of votes cast.
FOUND IT!
Had to go to a foreign news organization to discover that the votes were running about 2-1 R to D.
I wonder if that’s the reason to mask the turnouts?

HSF, from NPR:
“Iowa Democrats don’t record raw-vote totals and instead award “state delegate equivalents” to candidates based on support candidates receive at precinct caucuses.
There are many ways to win your precinct, but they all have one thing in common: your candidate must be viable.
The winner of the Iowa caucuses is the candidate who wins a plurality of state delegates. Precinct caucuses elect county delegates. The county delegate totals are converted into estimated state delegate equivalents using a mathematical formula. You want your candidate to win as many county delegates as possible, and to do that, you need your candidate to be viable in as many precincts as possible.
Iowa has 99 counties and 1,781 precincts. Most of those precincts will elect four or more county delegates, and a candidate will need the support of at least 15 percent of the people in the room to be viable.”
If you are interested in a interactive map showing percentages county, by county….

I think they keep this crap confusing to keep us interested.
Based on these comments from Bernie, the POPULAR vote will remain a secret. That’s the way the Demoncraps work in Iowa.
“Bernie Sanders has called on the Democratic party to release a raw vote count in Iowa after a nail-biting finish left lingering doubts over the first, much tighter-than-expected, clash with Hillary Clinton for the presidential nomination.”
““I honestly don’t know what happened. I know there are some precincts that have still not reported. I can only hope and expect that the count will be honest,” he said. “I have no idea. Did we win the popular vote? I don’t know, but as much information as possible should be made available.”

Ha! I was just about to post that Guardian article.
Well, I’ll post this instead.
“Iowa Democrats don’t record raw-vote totals…”
That sounds totally above board. Glad to see that there is a sensible system in place that is predicated upon the time honored traditions of one Xer, one vote.

-Thanks man.
Trump ends up one point ahead of RUBIO?? I’m shocked, shocked I tell ya.
Seriously bad showing for the Donald. Can you all now see why from day one I have asked you to embrace Hitlery as your next president? And may God have mercy on this country.
The fix is in lads.
this morning i am finding it comical to listen to the analysts and read a few articles
-They are touting cruz as the winner.
who were the last 2 Iowa cock-us winners? Santorum and Huckabee… now that’s some great success for Cruz to follow. prior to 2008, iowa was accurate but those we’re talking nearly a whole generation ago (GW ran unopposed in 04 but did win in it in 2000).
-Trump didn’t win 1st so therefore he lost. hahaha, like the people of Iowa are a good measure of how the rest of hte US will go. if you think thats the case then refer to above point
-RUBIO RUBIO RUBIO won by coming in 3rd. hahaha this one is funny too. this is complete media and establishment games here. the biggest thing out of iowa will be how rubio hwill likely get all the supprot of the establishment to defeat Cruz or Trump.
Hitlery- how is she still not indicted? still waiting for hte FBI to “go on strike”…
Da Bern – he’ll likely look strong because one has to assume he’ll win in NH. but when they start hitting up the south and west hitlery will run away with it.
bea,
i agree, i think she is “it”. especially once we start rounding march she’ll be the choice.
after seeing the results this morning i honestly think there is a very good chance the race will be between clinton and rubio.
harry p-
I’m sticking with my original prediction from many moons ago, they will make sure the Repukes run the candidate from the bottom of the toilet bowl in the Iowa Caucus against Hitlery in the election. Look for someone REALLY unpopular like Jeb.
Between Diebold and 30 million Mexicans and a dipshit Repuke candidate……Hitlery can’t lose.
I pray Trump is smart enough to swallow some pride and ego along with the crow. Stop giving Harpy money, kind words and your company because nothing will rub off of her and her kind but stink. People are concerned that if you started a war with Kelly over a question about your own words, would you start stupid feuds with foreign leaders because they don’t say or do what you want. Evangelicals want you to Come to God and come back fighting for America and the causes we supported you for. Cruz is a Federal Reserve Lackey and RINO liar; that’s two things Americans really hate. Lead the Revolt at the Polls and promise to turn Obama and Harpy inside out.
