We HAVEN'T won Nevada YET

No pledged delegates (the national delegates) from Nevada have yet been allocated. They will be allocated based on the results of the District/State conventions happening in about a month. So the delegates elected today need to go to those conventions and vote for Bernie. If we keep all our delegates and get them to vote there, we have won Nevada. It's not over yet.

I can add this to the list of reasons the entire system is broken beyond repair. It's not just the elections either but all of it and the way it's administered by incompetent and corrupt individuals. It boggles my mind.

My mother was a Precinct Captain and Bernie delegate to the county convention. She's never done anything like this in her life. She's already signed up for the state convention which is also in Vegas so folks won't have to travel far. It's looking pretty good.

She's almost 70 and has definitely been feeling the Bern. She hated being a precinct captain because they were forced to wait hours and hours before they could vote, but while the fifteen or so phone call reminders about attending the convention annoyed her, those calls sure paid off!

I received messages continually for the past 48 hours with instructions on where to go, when to go, and why it was important for people to show up and volunteer to be 'alternates', etc.

It will be the same for the next level. Nevada Berners will not let him down.
