New Hampshire Primary Thread (polls close at 6-7 CT)

[Florida Man for Crime]

What's with the DDHQ "Other" in Merrimack at 24%???

Seems like an error in one the largest places in Hillsborough County....

Pelham just reported, and Bernie only lost it by 3 points. So the lead should hold without a problem.

[Walmart_shopper]

Bloomberg and Trump have got to be loving this. A muddled primary.

To be fair, Democrats laughed their way through the GOP primary in 2016, too. Be careful what you laugh for.

[NOVA Green]

Where are you all getting results?  My sources have been rather unreliable.

DDHQ online (all the others s**k a*s tonight)

 plus MSNBC in the background....

Patrick could be out very soon:

Patrick getting into the race was one of the dumbest political moves in recent memory. Good riddance.

I will never be able to understand why Deval Patrick decided to run, to begin with. He was humiliated worse than Kamala Harris and Cory Booker were.

[NOVA Green]

Bernie wins the largest City Manchester 31%- 21% Pete

[Lourdes]

Imagine being told even two months ago that Biden would be closer to Deval Patrick than Amy Klobuchar in New Hampshire.

[Tender Branson]

Fixing the Merrimack error would give Klobuchar 30/150k votes, so 20%.

Not the 19% she’s right now ...

Hispanics matter in about 5-6 primaries max.  Sorry.

TX and CA have a lot of delegates.

Also there are a lot of Hispanic VRA congressional districts, and a lot of delegates are allocated at the congressional district level, so even if not many Hispanics vote, they assign a large share of delegates.

Bloomberg and Trump have got to be loving this. A muddled primary.

McCain had the nomination wrapped up 4 months before Obama did.

[Dr Oz Lost Party!]

It is going to be UGLY if Buttigieg does end up pulling off this win.

Ugly because Sanders supporters can't accept any result where Bernie doesn't win?  I agree in that respect.

Bingo.

Such unpleasant people.

Was the 2016 Republican primary any different? No.

There was no incumbent in 2016.

[MASHED POTATOES. VOTE!]

You're mistaking "not being able to accept" with "feeling unhappy about".

2008 was going to be a disastrous election for the GOP.  The Obama-Clinton prolonged battle for certain main the scale of the Dem victory a lot smaller than it could have been.

Obamaworld has been on about him for years. They likely talked him into doing a dumb thing.

[Zanas]

Can't wait to see the campaigns who haven't won any of the first two popular votes spinning this as a disappointing Bernie result.

Yeah I'm so worried. Your party can't even run a caucus and the frontrunner is a 80 year old socialist.

Again: You don't get to talk about civility when you recommended a post attacking me for sharing my abuse story.

So Deval Patrick is also likely out. Still need to hear from Gabbard if she  is going to keep going or follow the lead of her fellow minors.

Some of you are acting just like overconfident Democrats in 2016 who were delighted to be facing Trump.

You're mistaking "not being able to accept" with "feeling unhappy about".

Being unhappy with a result is not comparable to calling it "rigged", "stolen", etc., which is the default response in Bernie world.

[Zanas]

Reiterating my question about whether there is somewhere where we can see the results from the CDs ?

[Holmes]

Just tuning in. With Warren and Biden tanking I think it's safe to declare Sanders the solid frontrunner at this point, no matter what his margin of victory is tonight.

Biden is done.

Warren is done.

The "moderate" vote is going to be so split going forward now, I think the path easily gets cleared for Sanders.

Where is Bernie going to inrease his vote share?  Iowa and NH should have been some of his best states.  A heavily white, liberal electorate.  Its not going up from here for him.  The field is totally muddled.

As you yourself pointed out, Sanders' coalition isn't what it was in 2016. He is more reliant on people of color and educated people, and less so on rural white voters. As such - by your own previous argument - this isn't the concern it would have been in 2016.

He's still not relying on minorities.. that hasn't changed.  He's done nothing to reach out to them.  THey dont want free goodies.  Black voters are not democratic socialists.

Besides the fact that Sanders is #2 among black voters...

"Minorities" and "diverse" does not automatically equal "black". Black voters aren't the end-all, be-all of the primary coalition: 54% of Democratic minority voters in 2018 were non-black; stop erasing them.

Hispanics matter in about 5-6 primaries max.  Sorry.

Hispanics matter in California, Texas, Florida, New York, Arizona, Nevada, Illinois, New Mexico and New Jersey, among others. A lot of delegates in those states in a Democratic primary.

[Brittain33]

Gabbard’s playing a different game from everyone else. She’s not dropping out. That sends her back to obscurity.
