then they are going on about how bad Bernie lost in AZ. hey he's 40,000 votes ahead of Cruz. Right now vote totals for the moment are showing AZ to be a swing state O_O even handed the delegates out already on 2 % I smell a cheat sheet somewhere.

The others eh you wanna stay up late.

The same process that elected Bush is being used in this election. Hell, they've had 16 years to tweak the system.

It sucks, but the well meaning family will get pulled down with them. Our only hope is we have enough rope and ladders to get back out of the hole once they're done digging.

However, I don't think it's going to arrive like we would hoped it would.

My hope? We realize what's happening before it's too late. However, I imagine that was said by every generation that has proceeded me, at the same age I am today.

Retirement is shot, maybe I can become an expat and work an honorable subsistence living in happiness?

Utah and Idaho are caucus, AZ is primary.

or, conspiracy theory: they want everyone to go to bed without seeing the Bernie wins, only the Hillary win.

(paraphrasing) one wonders have to the ethics of calling a state when thousands of people are still waiting to vote.

the polls were to open at 8:30 pm. But I'm not sure whether they are on Mountain or Pacific Time.

Pacific Time north of the river...Mountain Time south of it.

Lewiston and Coeur D'Alene are the largest communities on Pacific Time.
