2:40 p.m. It's 39 for Clinton, 200 for Obama at Woodward Middle School on Bainbridge Island, where participants describe the scene as like the "rotary auction," with no parking and cars lined up on the sides of roads. Kathleen O'Connell says participants said they usually vote Republican, but decided to support Obama this time around.

1. Glad those Republicans are helping to decide our candidate for us

I think?

4. I expect a Washington republican is pretty moderate ...

I'll take any we can get.

5. I bet your right.

Obama is getting allot of republican votes.

[Alexander]

8. Glad some Democrats think we don't need crossover votes to win...

After all, that worked so well for us during the last two presidential elections.

[HughMoran]

10. So these Republicans are sure to vote Democratic in the Fall?

Are you sure?

2. Thank you for posting this. I live in a red

district in Cali and Obama beat Clinton in my precint by a lot. I've been wondering where all of the votes are coming from. He seems to be garnering republican votes.

3. They caucused in their cars?

6. Great news...

Bodes well for the general.

7. Now all the Indies and Repubs who like Obama

can vote for him.

If they really want McCain to win, they'll vote Hillary.

Ergo, they really DO like Obama.

9. I think the Western libertarians

are starting to go to Obama. And they are mostly Republicans.
