complaints about caucuses -- and yet most people here didn't seem to have any problem with them, as long as they resulted in a win for Bernie.

Caucuses don't allow early voting. They allow only very limited absentee voting (my out of state college student didn't qualify). They are only open for a few hours and require you to stay for those hours.

Should I say that if you like caucuses then you aren't a Democrat and don't believe in Democracy? As much as i dislike caucuses, I've never said that.
