How did McCain win, if they still haven’t counted 13% of the vote? They suspended the count 10 hours ago, said they’d finish it in the morning. We haven’t had any new numbers since last night, but now we’re told McCain won? What is going on in Washington?

Then there's the fact that NONE of the media are reporting: the caucus only counts for half of the delegates from the state! The other half come from the primary voting that is still taking place (absentees) and isn't over until the 19th!!!

Add to that the fact that (at least at my caucus) there was no discussion of the candidates, no "bending of ears" and "twisting of arms" to get people to support one candidate or another. It wasn't allowed. People wrote down their preference upon coming into the room (I think this is what is being reported as the caucus result) and then people volunteered to be delegates to the county caucus and then we left. No debate was allowed.

Other caucuses around the state did debate and discuss, FWIW, but in the end, this caucus result is tainted. It is crap.

Good morning.
“What is going on in Washington?”

I’ll bet Governor Christine could tell you.
