Charlottesville, VA - 5PM
In line for last names P-Z, 110 voted Republican, 312 voted democratic when I checked in. Only an Obama table outside, so I asked if there was a Hillary table, and the Obama volunteers said "they went home when it started raining."

3. I'm surprised at so many GOP votes in Charlottesville
I thought Charlottesville was deep blue.

11. Ah, okay. That explains it.
I know there are some very wealthy country estates around there so that would make sense. Gotta protect those trust funds.

16. One time, I drove to work, and there was a fox hunt going on!
Not really killing foxes, but horses, red jackets, beagles, the whole 9 yards!

7. I understand they're not dedicated enough for caucusing
(which is why it's unfair), but primaries are supposed to be their thing.

Are they just packing it in in despair like the campaign appears to be getting ready to do?
