Did the DNS outage cause the participation to drop last night? I couldn’t get on myself until just a couple of hours ago.

I was able to get here using the numerical address about noon today but I couldn’t get logged in until about 5 PM.

I did manage to keep my perfect voting record intact by voting for yesterday’s caucus this afternoon.

I suspect after the Wisconsin victory today, the cruz people will be fired up and ready to vote in today’s caucus.

Yes, I was pretty much locked out for about 18 hours.

I was very very lucky to get the thread up last night.

I found a window of about fifteen minutes and got it up.

Then it was spotty from then on.

I can't say, but the numbers of voters for both "major" candidates did decrease over the past day compared to recent trends.

(I myself never had any noticeable problems with this site. I'd guessed that participation in yesterday's discussion thread was low because I posted it later than I intended.)

It sure looks like the totals were down, so it had to be the DNS problems that dampened them. Last night should’ve been a busy one here becuase of wisconsin, but instead, it was slow both in the forum and the voting. It’s gotta be because of the DNS problems.
