Wouldn't that be something if Bernie beat out Hillary in Nevada?

That would be great; but Sanders winning in S.C. would be even better; that would really shake up the Hill; in more ways then one.

I agree. Sadly what would shake up the country is if she actually won the nomination and the office.

God forbid; I would almost rather see one of the Republicans (except Trump) win.

Looks like Nevada is going to be another close race for the Democrats; by the early reports.

I have a friend who says Hillary R.C has so much dirt surrounding her that she could pass for Pig Pen's mother.

And that if she remains unindicted and gets the nomination and wins the office he'll never vote again. And he's moving to Amsterdam.

I'll miss him.

What's your friend got against Pig Pen! And don't give up yet; there is still a long race to go; anything could happen.

If the Dutch will take him. They can afford to be picky.

It keeps bouncing back and forth, not good for hillary where this was supposed to be the start of her firewall.

 

[Hetta]

I early voted today ... must go and see whether there are any early figures for my city/state.

 

[Vylo]

3.5 point lead for clinton at 24% reporting. Hearing some universities have yet to vote, so could get interesting.

 

[Vylo]

Sanders gets 2 delegates already, Clinton 0 atm.

 

[ArmenianJohn]

If Bernie wins, he's going to tax everyone at 90%. He has no experience. He keeps attacking Hillary with an artful smear campaign by saying she gets money from Wall Street. And he's a SOCIALIST!

He's obviously a time traveling secret muslim too! Or was that Obama?

That was Obama. Bernie is an atheist jew!!! Hillary has experience. She even said also that you can ask ANYONE if she can be bought, and ANYONE will tell you "No, Hillary can NOT be bought!" See? She said so!

Well; as you probable know; they are voting for delegates to county conventions, who, in turn, elect delegates to state conventions, where Nevada’s national convention delegates are selected; it's complicated and could change by the end.

A democratic socialist at that.

There's some back and forth as to what Sanders actually said about the 90% tax on the rich. And his flip flopping is decades old apparently. Some excerpts from the Fact Check article linked below.

Fact Check:"It appears that Donald Trump, a pathological liar, simply cannot control himself. He lies, lies and lies again," Sanders stated. "Today, he repeated his lie that I want to raise taxes to 90 percent. Totally untrue."

Is it actually untrue?.....

.....According to his debate statement, the exact number is still pending. “We haven’t come up with an exact number yet” for the top tax rate “but it will not be as high as the number under Dwight D. Eisenhower, which was 90 percent.”



....In a 1974 article titled “Concentrated Wealth Is Causing Economic Illness,” from an unidentified newspaper that was in his papers at the University of Vermont library, Sanders is described as wanting to “make it illegal to amass more wealth than a human family could use in a lifetime.” He would do that, the article said, with “a 100 percent tax on incomes above this level ($ one million per year)” and “would recycle this money for the public need.”

Sure that's 1974. But he seemed interested in it even in the 90s. Just this year, Bernie Sanders talked about a 90 percent tax rate.

And Bernie S on the gun control issue. I used Bernie's initials at first and got the system edit , [bless do not curse] Didn't even occur to me those would pop when I did that. Irony though I do admit if someone isn't a Sanders fan.

T.B. I thought you were on Bernie's side here; The tax rate is negotiable; just so it helps with the income inequity to be changed toward the middle class.
