Iowa Caucus Live Thread
2/1/16

Posted on 02/01/2016 3:07:17 PM PST by markomalley

A search shows that nobody's opened up a live thread for tonight's caucuses. So here goes.

Predictions? For both the GOP and Dem nominations?

Eyewitness Accounts? See any funny business going on?

Don't expect to hear anything soon.

The Caucus starts at 7:00pm central (8:00pm eastern). In 2012 some results started trickling out about 8:30pm central. So 9:30-10:00pm eastern at the earliest.

This year is a whole new ballgame. The precincts will all be reporting electronically via phone, tablets, and computers. The whole system has been set up and tested by Microsoft.

What could possibly go wrong?

Prince, “1999”. Don’t know why, just seems fitting.

Bernie is nothing more than this year’s Howard Dean. He will fade, and quickly.

All of the big “capitalists” are socialists.

That includes Trump, obviously.

Our system has never been capitalism; it is Free Enterprise, for all. That is anathema to capitalists and other socialists.

My daughter told me that Carl Cameron on Fox News stated on the Five that Rubio and Cruz threw in together that if there is a sweep going to Trump that they would combine forces.....

She was at the gym working out so there may be some distraction but anyone else hear this and set the record straight?

...how does one identify a Trump supporter.

It's too early in the evening for a straight line like that.

They’ll have results tonight. I would be surprised if they aren’t coming out by 9 or 9:30 Central.

My best guess is 9 pm.

The story is that the Cruz supporters would show up early, take up the space in the lines, take their time filing in, then - promptly at 7PM - they’d shut the doors on anyone who was behind them. Leaving thousands in the parking lot.

I’m chalking this up to the rumor mill.

Of course, I have no idea how the Iowa caucus’ work. The article says that the doors must shut at 7PM and anyone outside would be shut out.

I’m hearing from Iowans now that this is NOT how this works.

I though only Democrats were pro-cheating.

My prediction is:
1. Cruz 28% of the vote.
2. Rubio 24% of the vote.
3. Trump 20% of the vote.
with those three sharing the delegates in about those percentages.
