I fail to see why caucuses still exist as opposed to just going all-primaries. Seems inefficient, outdated and a poor read on the actual feelings of the electorate.

I'm glad I live in a primary state. Don't have to waste my time caucusing!

Fun story - my dad went to the GOP caucus across the street from his house in 2012 and somehow got roped into being a delegate to the King County GOP convention a few weeks later, which took eight hours to decide... nothing.

His reaction? "The whole experience definitely impressed upon me the efficiency of a primary system."

Didn't the WA GOP switch from caucus to primary for determining delegates this year?

I believe so. I hope so.

Fox reports women 56-41% for Clinton in their entrance poll, union 56-43% for Clinton, first-timers 54-43% Sanders, under 45 76-20% Sanders.

Curious that unions are that much stronger for Clinton than Sanders.
