Has anyone talked about the Dem turnout being exceptionally high?
In all the previous primaries all the news broadcasts were talking about how much higher the Dem voter turnout was compared to previous years, and how much higher it was compared to the Pub turnout this time. I haven't heard diddely about it tonight! Don't they know, or don't they want to say?

1. I asked earlier and have been trying to do some quick scans of stats on TV
Seems the Dem votes generally outnumber the Repub votes.

3. Richardson mentioned it when he was interviewed by MSNBC earlier..
There was some remark by the commentator that some places had run out of ballots, and that there were lines to vote in the Democratic primaries. .

4. That's GREAT! To me, that's a much better indicator of a Dem win
in November that all the hoopla about which candidate is winning . I personally don't care which of our candidates gets the final nod, I just want a Dem back in the WH! I believe the large Dem turnout will do that!
