In case you're still wondering what happened in the TX caucuses....

Read this. And weep. Or scream. And keep watching this story, because this is the nut:

Ironically, only in very well-organized areas like El Paso were we able to even identify the scale of the attempted irregularities. In these areas, we were also able to rebuff most attempts at fraud, correct fraudulent delegate counts, and protect our voters. In less well-organized areas, we did not have enough eyes and ears to identify or stop fraud, and our numbers plunged.

Although affidavits have not been made public, I have copies and records of the voter complaints for which I did interviews. Although the Hillary campaign has not gone public with evidence of fraud, the national legal team has approximately 200 such affidavits and 2000 voter complaints. The campaign intends to win the popular vote without airing these charges in public, but I suspect the campaign will provide authorities with this evidence upon request.

Maybe Obama knows this, and that’s why he’s been phoning it in lately?

Readers, RL calls me, so I can’t do the detail on that post correctly. (In particular, I think I remember the handle, TrapperJohn, but I forget in what context.)

Readers, do any of you have similar caucus experiences?

My caucus, in addition to being obviously skewed to Obama’s demographic, has run by an Obama supporter, who let his people sit in the bleachers, called us down to the floor (twice, so no accident), the lines had Obama electioneering constantly, and so on. The secret ballot has a lot to be said for it.

Lambert, I've not heard back from my precinct chair

but I know he intended to file a protest because we were told repeatedly during the county convention that all at-large delegates HAD to be Obama delegates, that that was the word from the State Party, and that if we replaced an Obama at-large delegate we HAD to replace that delegate with another Obama delegate (IOW we couldn’t replace even an alternate at-large delegate with a HRC or ’undecided’ delegate).

If you have time, Sarah....

… please follow up. Stupidly, I forgot that we have first hand knowledge on the ground here from a real delegate! (Gad…)

This is an interesting story

That was published a couple days after the caucus. I’ve posted it before, but here it is again.

I'm glad I live in a democratic state

(small “d”) where we get to vote in a primary, instead of one of those banana republic caucus states.

How the fuck can you have primary results that differ so dramatically from caucus results in dual caucus-primary states like Texas and Washington and nobody wonders WTF is going on?

In caucus only states there is nothing to compare it to, but the dual states beg the question, how did Obama win so many caucuses?
