Default 2020 Politics Thread - Enter At Your Own Risk - RULES IN OP

This is the only thread on this forum where your political opinion is welcome.

NO INSULTS.

All other forum rules still apply.

If you feel the need to insult someone in this thread, you will be suspended.

If you make a stupid joke/post an image promoting the death (or harm) of a certain candidate, you will be banned.

Keep your politics here and here only. Keep them out of your avatar, your signature, and all others threads.

You are not going to convince anyone that your view is right. Nobody cares.

On Monday: "The Caucus will be done by 8:30 today"

It's Thursday and it's still not done

Only if there was a more efficient way. Maybe something like you give a piece of paper with a list of candidates on it and the voter marks who they want? Too bad there is nothing like that out there

Come on Houdini why are you opening Pandora’s box, hasn’t your 7 years as moderator on this site taught you that people won’t follow the rules.

Iowan here and I went to my first caucus on Monday evening. The process was civil and fast compared to what I've heard they can be. There was no foreshadowing of the troubles that were to come of reporting of the results.

Here are the results of my precinct (bodies counted for each candidate):
Pete 124
Warren 96
Bernie 83
Amy K. 80
Biden 71

There's going to be a lot of hurt feelings in this thread.

Anyone else remember the "Sports & Politics" sub-forum on here a couple years ago? I would purposely wait to read any threads until lunch so I could enjoy the hilarity while eating. It was a sad day when it all went *poof*

I’m not saying anything about anything other than Tulsi Gabbard is worth educating yourself on

If you are disenfranchised by either side, I think you will be just as confused on me on why all her momentum seems to evaporate no matter what

The whole thing is rigged and we will end up having disasters in power until you can’t buy your way into anything

My 7 years as admin has taught me that it is better to have all the politics in one thread than every thread.
