8. Yep. Real democracy vs. activist sock hop

[MohRokTah]

2. I never expected that one.

Doing okay so far in Montana, too, which I would have never expected her to lead for even a few seconds!

3. Major Upset

Clinton's lead expanding in Minnehaha. We are ready to make a call - Clinton is projected to win South Dakota in a major upset.

4. How can the self proclaimed nominee winning be a 'major upset'

she shouldn't lose ANYTHING tonight.

5. Bernie has been doing the best in low minority states like South Dakota.

He did win North Dakota, probably because it's a caucus state.

9. You probably didn't hear me: How can the self proclaimed nominee winning be a 'major upset'? nt

[pnwmom]

11. It's an upset because most of the prognosticators thought it would go to Bernie

based on the demographics.

[Joe the Revelator]

14. This is what a presumptive nominee does

?1

Kerry was blue. It didn't matter what the demographics were. Is Hillary weaker than Kerry?

[pnwmom]

17. In this particular election, because of the two candidates, the demographics

predicted results as well as the polls.

There were no polls in the Dakotas, but the demographics are known.

10. Oh now you done made me do this

[Joe the Revelator]

13. Ouch?

[Barack_America]

6. Yeah, they might want to reconsider that. Her margin just plummeted to 3%.

[grossproffit]

12. Okay.

[Segami]

15. Benchmark Politics = DAVID BROCK

[Barack_America]

16. That makes a lot of sense.

Didn't realize that, thanks.

7. A bit of a surprise, though she won it in 2008.

SD/ND were split then, too.
