3. That's impossible.
They are probably talking about total vote WITH FL and MI.

The very basis of a caucus is by popular vote.

11. Actually, ...
One county or area can have a much more disproportionate tally than the rest of the state. That doesn't mean that Obama didn't win the collective delegates. It does mean, however, that the state, as a whole, didn't vote for him.

in the Texas primary, but. She won? WTF. Well, there are always caucuses.

41. Hillary lost Texas, and she sure as hell lost Wyoming
She has lost this contest.
She has proven herself with little aptitude for winning.

Any kind of semblance of the popular vote, then....I can't help you. Less than 20,000 total? Really? Nah...

13. Your own source concurs
Obama had 61 percent, or 5,378 votes, to Clinton's 38 percent, or 3,312 votes, with all 23 Wyoming counties reporting.

21. For the Obama Phenomenon Impaired.
Votes from caucus sites do not necessarily represent the amount of people at the caucus sites. Actual, real, people go to caucus one way, or the other. 5000 votes does NOT mean anything at all. <You would think that more than 500,000 people lived in Washington state.>

29. First you give a "source" which say one thing, someone goes to that source
supplies the link which contradicts what you just said:

"Obama had 61 percent, or 5,378 votes, to Clinton's 38 percent, or 3,312 votes, with all 23 Wyoming counties reporting."

and now you triangulate

Hmmmm, I am starting to understand

32. I can not find a link to the actual poll books
ABC News at 12:30 said, "Despite his gain in 2 delegates, Hillary Clinton won the popular vote in WY today. Local News, Sports, Weather, Funny Animal Trick, Leno.

25. Yeah! Wahoo!!!! You can google like a motherf***er!
The point of the OP <me> was that ABC (national) radio news said at 12:30 CST that Hillary Clinton won a majority of the popular vote in the WY Caucasus.

19. What are you talking about? It specifically breaks it down: votes and delegates.
Edited on Sun Mar-09-08 02:01 AM by zlt234
Votes:
Clinton: 3311
Obama: 5378

State Delegates:
Clinton: 129.5
Obama: 187.5

Yay for reading.

17. Yet another pro-corporate DINO/DLC loving HillBot grasping at straws.
Your candidate lost by DOUBLE DIGITS! I know that FACT has little chance of inflitrating the brainwashed state of your mind. Maybe it's time to support a populist candidate and not the faux Dem loser you currently love.

22. Reasoning with the koolaid drinkers in massive and deep denial doesn't work.
Having been around DU far before the current election, I can tell you with uptmost certainty that DU was NEVER a bastion of love for Hillary. Not because she's a woman or any other stupid false bigot claim, but because her political positions and philosophy are antithetical to liberal grassroots.

38. "Due to pre-contest rules"
Pre contest rules like:

Farm animals not registered to vote cannot caucus.
Imaginary friends unable to caucus
Mannequins ineligible to caucus

Rules like that?

50. I was actually quoting
FUCKING ABC NEWS.

Radio stations sometimes have more than just opinion. For some curious reason, exactly twice every hour from 6AM to 1AM, WBAP allows ABC News 90 seconds to broadcast national news. These events always happen at almost exactly the same time every hour. It is mind boggling.
