Iowa Caucus Live Thread

2/1/16

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?

CNN just reported it is going to be a record night in Iowa for GOP voters. Wasn’t the theory that a record high would be great news for Trump? Something not jiving

Agreed, the Rubio votes.

I’ll be happy if Cruz gets any of the top three places.....although it’s nice to win ...a winner is busy keeping the other guy from creeping up..second place is good because you have ore freedom to move and operate.....I tend to think it will stay neck and neck with Trump....that might change in NH and other states as this thing moves along....

I really like Tim Scott and this depresses me - wonder if Lindsey Graham pressured him or had something to do with it.

[Red in Blue PA]

Excellent!

Go Cruz!

[one Lord one faith one baptism]

Conservatives spoke loud and clear, Cruz is the winner!

[spacejunkie2001]

Agree.

[kabar]

They must still cast some votes. People must register someway when they enter the polls,

Hank, thank you, thank you, thank you. Why so many otherwise intelligent, conservative people believe in the fraud that is Donald Chump makes me fear for the future of the movement and the nation.

HILLARY IS THE BIG WINNER BECAUSE CRUZ CANNOT BEAT HER!

At some point we’re gonna need Trump to drop out so he doesn’t split the Cruz vote. We need to consolidate around someone who can win (Cruz) so we don’t end up with Rubio.... :)

[Jane Long]

Microsoft is counting the votes, after tallied, right?

Hmmmm..

[SeaHawkFan]

Your admission is very admirable, and I can respect that.

[usconservative]

Dang, I remember when caucus night was an all night affair.

[the jogger]

Dead people?

[luvie]

I just got on-line or I would have been annoying the Trumpies long before this! :)

[heights]

Amazing isn’t it, Hillary wins without voters.

[tennmountainman]

I could vote for Cruz.

I could never vote for Rubio under any circumstance.

[datura]

Cruz wins Iowa. Congratulations. It would be very odd if he didn’t.

[Red Steel]

Dropped 1% for Cruz 28%, Trump 25%.
