According to what I’ve read, each local caucus has the same “weight” in the final results. Therefore, a high turnout in a few areas, with a large number of votes for Bernie, doesn’t benefit him much overall.
The Dems and the GOP do their presidential straw poll very differently.
The article I’m recalling vaguely was definitely about the Democrat caucuses.
Sounds like AlGore scheduled another Global Warming conference in IOWA. That man is Magic.
lol...no kidding.
Wow...some tough folks up there. I would not wish this weather on them but some folks love it.
Well, most of us don’t particularly love it. But we learned how to live with it. lol...
Maybe God is intervening in the Iowa Caucus.
He always maintains the Divine Veto.

Very true. There are several occasions in the Revolutionary war that seem to be like that where the British would have won but for some very opportune and unusual weather occurring at exactly the time that the Continental Army needed it.
Yeah, no doubt.
I guess the people who got a creepy mailer from Cruz now have a really good excuse for not showing up.
Divine intervention?
Lol...”This is why God created hot chocolate...”
Both my brothers had the polar bear blood. They live in places that are freezing In the winter. I took off back home South as soon as I could.

...Delegates shall be bound to the candidates in direct proportion to the candidates’ respective vote shares in the Iowa Caucuses regardless of whether any such candidate has withdrawn from the race or otherwise does not have his or her name placed in nomination at the Republican National Convention...

Des Moines only expecting 2-4” snow by Tuesday AM drive time. That won’t affect the caucuses at all. Sun is out right now.
Yep. It’s a gorgeous day in NW Iowa as well.
