EXACT Rhode Island Ballot Count
Edited on Tue Mar-04-08 10:01 PM by Hissyspit
Caucus results:

11 for Hillary Clinton

9 for Barack Obama

Hillary wins!

I was driving along the interstate from Massachusetts into Rhode Island one night and fell asleep at the wheel. When I snapped awake a couple of seconds later, I was in Connecticut. :7

Flame away Rhode Islanders!

1. By all of two delegates!
If Rhode Island were a penis, women would laugh at it.

5. It's always kind of surprising how long it takes to geth through RI on I-95
45 minutes max to go through a state. :D

6. VT will more than cancel out RI. It will go 10-5 or 9-6 for Obama.

13. 9 to 6 because of the award rules.
Obama isn't going to win by by 66 percent or more... after the final counts are done.

Still from the two small states today, it will be Obama +1 delegate.

And I'm sticking to my prediction that Obama wins the TX/OH delegate race by +10 or more

So tonight is still going to be a +11 to +16 win for Obama.

That's adding 10 percent onto his delegate LEAD.

Hillary had to CUT into the lead tonight, not let it expand, even just by 10 or 12.

Big night for the O man.

8. I heard Fred and Mildred couldn't make it this year.
Fred's limbago, don't ya know. That's what threw it for Hillary.

10. Actually, that's a major loss for Hillary
she needed to net more than 2 from a supposed "solid Hillary" state.

almost every calculation on the delegate counts had her at +3 or +4 delegate from RI.

That isn't going to catch Obama.

But hey, knock yourselves out with some fizz water or something.

12. Odd thing about RI
You can tell when you have entered the state by the tire tracks up and on the jersey barriers, every block has a ginmill, a package store and a coffee/doughnut shop, CVS pharmacies are a good way to judge the population. one CVS per 350 residents seems to be the average.

Boy I miss RI
