[findrskeep]

1. ahhhh yeaaaaaaaaah nt

[Svafa]

2. Sweeet!

Did you notice what district it was? How commonplace is exit polling? I've never been polled....

9. They do exit polls in areas that represent the broad spectrum of the population.

Urban area, rural area, university town. Like that.

3. On the first day my husband did phone banking

for Bernie in Missouri, he got 19 for Bernie, 1 for HRC and one undecided. One of the fellows he talked with said he is voting for Bernie and so are his wife and two sons, so I guess that would really make it 22 to 1 for Bernie.

Hope that trend holds in other areas of the state.

4. Just voted in St. Louis at 3pm...

only a handful of people there.

Guy in front of me was confused about what this vote was for. (We have an open primary.) After looking at all the ballots, he was surprised to see Bush's name on it (they were printed before he dropped out). He finally decided on a Democratic ballot "for now"... after assurances that he could vote for either party in the general election.

Low-info voter (sigh).

8. In minor defense...there were 4 party ballots in my precinct

It can be a bit frustrating to non-political junkies...I'm just glad the guy got out to vote instead of sitting on the sidelines.
When turnout is high, Bernie wins, period.

10. Low-info voter (sigh). I'm sorry but always makes me laugh......I know it shouldn't but it does.

when lots of them vote we get a tRump.

14. Were you in the city or the county?

I thought it would be packed when I went before work, but there was hardly anyone there. I'm hoping that, because I live very close to where I work, I got there shortly after a big rush.

15. City (nt)

[Svafa]

17. Same here (District 10 fwiw). Maybe we both just happened to go at slow times.

[Ino]

22. Ward 24, Precinct 6 here

Whatever that means

Yah, I always pick a slow time. Still, I was surprised to find it sooooo dead.

[wcmagumba]

5. I did my part...

About 6:45 AM in my crazy extreme red district of SW Missouri...I voted for the Bernster....!

[Rebkeh]

6. Go, Bernie!

Come on, Missouri. Make me proud!

[Don Draper]

7. Missouri is gettin' put on the Bern notice!

We are headed out to vote for the Sandman here in SW Missouri in just a few minutes.

[gordianot]

11. Two undecideds went with a family member to see Sanders.

Both said they voted for Bernie.

[AzDar]

12. Go, Bernie...GO!!

[zentrum]

13. Go!!

[RayOfHope]

16. I live in SWMO and was at his rally on Saturday

The rally started at 7 and lasted for 2 hours. The line to get in was so long that people continued to file in the entire 2 hours.

The only signs I saw at local polling places today were Bernies's. There weren't even any repub signs.


Turnout was also extremely high at my polling place. Over 500 by noon at a place which usually only has 300ish total during a general election. I voted at 7:20am and had to wait in line. Usually I walk right up to the table an am out of there in about 3 minutes or less.

I'm hearing the same from my friends in other precints/towns.

Go Bernie Go!

[Duval]

18. Yayyyy!!!! K&R!

GO BERNIE GO!!!!!!

[PatrynXX]

19. ol NBC

naturally had the old old outdated line that Hillary has a massive lead . sigh Andrea shut up. 200 delegates is not a big thing.

[watoos]

20. Exit polling has historically been very reliable

until electronic voting machines showed up. If there is a big discrepancy between exit polling and actual votes you can bet your marbles that the machines flipped the votes.

[Tiggeroshii]

21. Or maybe that a lot of people were turned away. North Carolina had some 280,000 turned away so far
