The Predictit map went from Biden winning 10 states in the Confederacy to Biden winning everything outside of NNE and the Pac/Mountain West.

Looks like they are going heavy off of 538's current projection.

Just voted for Tulsi. Not lying when I say I've had more than 10 Trump voting friends post/text today that they crossed over and voted Biden to stop the Communist. The precinct my dad works at, he's guess >50% voters voted for Biden. On the way to vote I heard a black-themed pro-Biden, anti-Bernie ad. Biden may pull this off afterall.

The Trumpers are voting against their interests for November, that's for sure.

Not really.  Tactical voting can have a way of backfiring!  2016 showed us that the unexpected can actually happen, so it makes sense to vote for the "least bad" of the opposition party that you could come closest to living with.

Put it another way: if you were a Republican who voted for Sanders to help him win the nomination, and then he somehow beat Trump... how would you feel about having helped to elect Sanders?

Or the flip side: if you were a Democrat who tactically voted for Trump in the 2016 R primary because you thought he'd be a weak opponent in the fall... how do you feel about having helped to elect Trump?

Roughly 70% of Vienna Dems Abroad voters are for Bernie:

It is "incredibly important to her that the candidate has a chance against Trump," says architecture student Laura, who has lived in Austria for six years and is participating in a Democrats Abroad area code for the first time. And that, in her opinion, was Sanders, whose policy she also found right overall. "He represents interests that are extremely important in foreign policy, for example," she says.

With Joe Biden, she fears that "a situation like 2016 will repeat itself" when Hillary Clinton was unable to prevail against Trump. That is also what Bill thinks, a little older, who hopes to take steps from Sanders to combat inequality. Anyone who lives in Europe knows that Sanders' social-democratic proposals for health and education systems will work, Sanders is "not a radical". But: "Whoever is the opponent of Trump, I'll choose him - even Bloomberg, although I hate the idea," he says.

Aren't Berniebros the ones telling us that climate change is an existential threat as is Trump to democracy.  So you're now saying you want him to run third party to help Trump get elected and continue the current trajectory?  Interesting.

[GeneralMacArthur]

I hate to bring this up because 22 people have died and it’s not appropriate to put politics ahead of a community that has been devastated, but will the Nashville tornado seriously reduce Bernie’s numbers in TN?

They should postpone the primary.

I agree.  Give people another week.

Oh yeah, Sanders is gonna dominate Dems Abroad. It will be fun doing a country by country map of the results.

I know it's an "out-of-touch rich people thing", but wine caves can be quite a cool experience.

[Fmr. Pres. Duke]

Sanders should run as an independent if he wins California even if he can't win the nomination. Biden is a loser who can barley speak & will get destroyed in the rust belt with his record in NAFTA. Anyone who can't win California in 2020 has no business running in the Dem primary since California is the heart & soul of the Dem party today.

This is a really stupid post.

[Tender Branson]

The left-liberal Austrian newspaper „Standard“ has a Super Tuesday live ticker and you can choose between Sanders and Biden as a registered user.

Sanders currently leads Biden by 60-10 votes among registered users.

Voted for Sanders as well.

I agree, there is no point in running a third party candidacy.

[GeneralMacArthur]

Biden should run as an independent if he wins Virginia even if he can't win the nomination.  Sanders is a loser who can barley speak & will get destroyed in the ACELA corridor with his record on economics.  Anyone who can't win Virginia in 2020 has no business running in the Dem primary since Virginia is the ultimate swing state today.

What time for first exit polls?

Yes because weather rigged the caucus.

I already know that reading all the comments back and forth that one way or the other tonight is gonna be fun.

Loudoun County is going to shatter the turnout from 2016.

[Interlocutor is just not there yet]

Since I won't be around when results actually come in, let me predict some of the reactions...

When Sanders underperforms in a county/state/overall:
"Bernie is done!"
"I knew Bernie was done, you all should have listened to me."
"LOL Bernie!"
"Congrats, nominee Biden!"
"Socialist Bernie Bros owned!"
"If Bernie doesn't drop out tomorrow, he's just dividing the party/helping Trump like he always does!"

When Biden underperforms in a county/state/overall:
"LOL Biden!"
"B-b-b-but muh Biden surge!"
"LOL at Atlas for calling the race for Biden!"
"So much for moderate consolidation!"
"Congrats, nominee Sanders!"
"Biden should drop out and endorse Bloomberg/Warren, it's the only way to stop Bernie."

You forgot "LOL suck it, BernieBros" and "B-b-b-but I thought Bernie was gonna win Texas and California by 15‰ because muh Hispanics and muh early vote!"

[Tender Branson]

Democrats Abroad can also vote here in Salzburg, but the Vienna restaurant precinct is the bigger one.

More than 400 voted there during the 2016 primaries between Sanders and Hilldog.

It is expected that 500 to 1000 Democrats abroad will vote in person this time.

That’s quite interesting because there are only a few thousand Americans living in Austria at all.

[Diabolical Materialism]

Been making calls to voters in North Carolina. Talked to four people so far. Two have already voted for Sanders, one is planning on voting for him this evening, and one got disconnected. Gonna keep doing this until I go in for work.

Saw this concerning Boston turnout: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1yZ6KNqOT29hyYiNIqoEcPEwhTDxGC3Z-DjiII9XTsi8/edit#gid=265520355

Turnout so far is highest relative to 2018 in Wards 2-5, 21, 22. That's the area immediately around Cambridge. Turnout is lowest in Wards 14, 15, and 18 which are in southern Boston.

Ok, 8.360 American citizens live in Austria right now, 4.365 of them in Vienna.
