HEY, SW....at our Caucus they had us sign in and INDICATE our PRESIDENTIAL PREFERENCE right on the sign in sheet. They were going to use THAT to report back the candidate numbers. THEN, we went and “caucused”....completing a platform like questionnaire, and then electing our delegates.....where we had those who were running as delegates tell us WHY they were running and WHO they were supporting, and why....

OK, we signed in and indicated our preference, but there was no reporting or discussion of this at the caucus. There was no discussion of the candidates whatsoever. There was no measure of the "will of the precinct" or whatever you want to call it. That is why I feel shafted.

If they are going to report the results of what was written on the sign-in sheet, they could actually "report" whatever they want. I have ZERO faith that what will be reported is actually what was "voted".

Shit, I hate being so cynical..........

Very similar to my experience. What county are you in?
