The Nevada Democratic Caucus - some early results already in

And what credentials does a humiliating result with 0.2% of the vote deliver to her for a 3rd party run???

One fifth of one percent of voters in one half of the electorate want her... and she thinks she can put together a successful third party run?

What 0.02% percent of the vote looks like in the flesh.

Clint Eastwood is not just some Hollywood actor. He is a conservative icon, very involved with the NRA and he has been invited to speak in the Republican convention in 2016, so obviously the party believes it is worth hearing from him. The reason he mentioned is that Trump does not have presidential decorum.

I found it interesting that for the first time, a Republican publicly asked other Republicans to vote for someone who is running with the Democratic Party (although Mike Bloomberg is not exactly a Democrat)

Oh wow, I didn't know she had supporters other than her husband and her parents. Good for her, this doubles the number of her supporters.

The Fox News website says only 1% of the vote is in.

I am watching live coverage and raw vote counts.
Now the vote % has changed because it is the second stage of the Caucus that determines who receives the delegates.

The GOP thought Clint was important enough to speak at their RNC convention soo......
 
Fox News live TV coverage has just corrected their obvious percentage blunder, and now they are saying that 4% of the vote is in.

They didn't say "we made a mistake", LOL, they just said "forget what we said before about percentage of votes in."

Nevada Dem party is withholding results so far. This time in the day back in 2016 they had 54% reported. Today... 0%.

Just for you, pR, from the green papers.

Nevada Democratic Delegation 2020

Note there are FOUR tables, the last one with projected delegates.

They jumped to 2% at 2:18 Pacific time.
 
The Nevada Dem Party is not reporting anything yet. These are results from media spotters located at some caucus locations.

By this time in 2016, Nevada Dem Party had reported 54% of the caucus tally. Today, to this time in the Caucus day, 0%.
 
With 4% of precincts reporting, Sanders is at 55.6%, Biden 20.7%, and no other candidate is making the 15% threshold for delegates, third place is Steyer at 9.6% followed by Warren at 7.7% and Buttigieg with 5.1%.

Like I suspected, Buttigieg is getting cut to size, will probably make no delegates in South Carolina either, and will get to Super Tuesday with his campaign completely stalled.

Nate Silver now gives to Buttigieg a 1 in 100 chance. I always said that I didn't think that Buttigieg was viable. This will become increasingly clear with the more diverse states.
 
Fox has determined Sanders the HUGE winner.

Well in Donald's case it was Russian assistance...
 
Wow, this early, Fox News is already predicting that Bernie has won Nevada.
I guess they are right, though.
 
Sanders now at 56.1%.

This is a huge victory.

This early in the primaries and he is already breaching the 50% threshold.

Does this mean you’ll be supporting Sen. Sanders against trump in your swing state of Ohio?
 
Klobuchar, 1.2%, wow! What a rebuke!

Can you link your source for me greatnews?
 
Turnout predicted: 176,000 which is better than in 2016.
 
Despite all the bull**** the media was reporting about Sanders having some HUUUUGGGE spat with the Culinary Union, turns out in the heart of their voting district at the Bellagio Bernie dominated. Seems that "spat" was blown way out of proportion.
