She said there were lots of Bernie supporters there and no HRCers.
She and her fiancé are feeling the Bern!

She said the count was116 for Bernie and 29 for HRC--delegates: Bernie 6 and HRC 2

I misunderstood.

10. the R caucus was weeks ago

by the way Cruz won that

17. I really do not care who people vote for

I have made it clear.

But this election is quite ugly, and when people make all political... even a bird landing on the lectern... well... I do not expect healing. I do not expect many people voting for the other guy or gal in November and the party is indeed splitting. This is less obvious than the Rs. In fact, the ugliness reminds me of what is happening with the republicans as well.

This is dangerous... but hey... I just take notes.

I really should get back to the city budget. Over 1000 pages, thanks environmentalists, Dang Climate Action Plan added a whole section to it... so... more work. (And I love them for making that happen, alas those voters are about to get annoyed with your party...for wanting to remove roof top solar from the local plank. They vote and they are active)

18. I self-deleted my previous posts, because some have thought I was taking a swipe at the OP, which

I wasn't.

Just wanted to let you know that the self-deletes were not directed at anyone, but I am just tired of the cynicism, and I am not going to play that game.

Have fun budgeting

[nadinbrzezinski]

20. Reading

I just report on that shit

[still_one]

21. I know, that is your job

[Surya Gayatri]

22. Hey, still_one, watch out...they're on the prowl. I was N° 4.

26. Thanks for the heads up. I really wonder about comprehension skills. Regardless, I self-deleted

because some were offended because they can't distinguish between subjects/verbs/ and the objects they act upon. It was pretty clear I was referring to Trump, but that isn't my problem

I am pretty much done with the GD-Primary forum anyway.

Thanks again

[Surya Gayatri]

27. Me, likewise. Just too toxic and ultimately boring. They are SO repetitive and predictable.

And, yes, some of them are either extremely thin-skinned, or they need remedial reading classes.

[still_one]

30. yes, it is tiresome. Take care

[roguevalley]

35. GOOD ON THE DAUGHTER! I live down on the Kenai and I just got back

74% Bernie in my little conservative part of the woods. Your daughter is my hero. Getting to polling places around here sometimes requires a bit of ingenuity.

[still_one]

37. I think you meant your post for the OP's daughter, and you are right good for her being part of the

process

[Blue_In_AK]

38. After some kind of Republican hocus-pocus,

Trump and Cruz are now tied here. I think they split Rubio's delegates.

[nadinbrzezinski]

39. Ok that makes sense

[highprincipleswork]

11. No, it's the word "stooge". I think you're out of her for that one.

[panader0]

5. She has lived in Wasilla for three years and told me she has never seen Sarah,

only Bristol.

[still_one]

9. wasn't aware of that, but just curious. Anyway good for your kids

[Karma13612]

28. Lol! But the REAL question is,

can she see Russia from her porch?

LOL

Just joking, but couldn't resist, Wasilla and all!

I would love to visit Alaska some day. My dad went there many many years ago to watch a fellow dog musher compete in the Iditarod.

He never forgot that trip and the things he experienced.

[still_one]

31. Alaska is a beautiful state. I did some hiking there a few years back, and the scenery

was breath taking

[Karma13612]

32. You are truly fortunate.

I hope Bernie wins so we can see a stronger economy in time for me to afford such a trip myself. My wages are low and I work very hard to make ends meet. I will retire in 4 years, the legal retirement age at the moment. Hopefully if he wins, there won't be any cuts to my SS or increase to my retirement age before I get to the finish line!! I am worn out and just want to finally enjoy life.

All the best.

[roguevalley]

36. come if you can. its great up here.

[Karma13612]

42. OK! It's settled!

thanks!

[Blue_In_AK]

40. You would love Alaska so much.

I've known a lot of people who came for a vacation and never left. Or at least went home to get their stuff and came back.

[Karma13612]

43. Wow! that is a temptation! eom

[Blue_In_AK]

45. Let us know when you're coming,

and we'll show you around. I think you'll find that Alaskans are some of the friendliest people around.

[Karma13612]

46. wow, those pictures are amazing.

thank you!

And I will keep your offer in mind. Count on it!

[Faux pas]

2. That's great!

[dana_b]

3. thanks for the update!! n/t

[BernieforPres2016]

6. She's right down the road from the Wasilla Hillbillies!

Otherwise known as the Palins.

[nadinbrzezinski]

8. Fun fact, any state gets at 85 or above...

all delegates go to the candidate that pulls that feat.

the only state where that has happened this year is Vermont.

[BernieforPres2016]

15. But that wasn't good enough for sellout Howard Dean nt

[nadinbrzezinski]

19. I was sharing a fact not a smear

[BernieforPres2016]

23. It's a smear to point out Howard Dean is going against the voters of his state

When Bernie won 86% of the vote?

[nadinbrzezinski]

24. I shan't play this game with you

have a good day...

the budget beckons... ah some coffee first

[BernieforPres2016]

25. I'll make sure not to offend you by responding to any more of your posts

I won't see any more of them. You have a good day too.

[H2O Man]

12. Great!

Recommended.

(Please tell her that I said thanks!)

[Karma13612]

29. And the good news keeps rolling in. Excellent! eom

[Major Hogwash]

33. Excellent.

I didn't even know there was a Houston, Alaska until now!

[Blue_In_AK]

41. It's the only place in Alaska that sells fireworks,

plus they've decided to fully embrace the new marijuana industry here, unlike neighboring Wasilla that's too enamored with their meth and opioids, I guess. (I know that's mean, but I can't figure out why Wasilla wants to be a "dry" community when it comes to the pot biz.)

[panader0]

34. kick for the update.

[Karma13612]

44. keep those updates a-comin' !
