1. Yeah Yeah Yeah!

Great to hear this news.

And I certainly hope no Bernie voters accidentally knocked over any chairs in those polling places there in KY. I'd hate to hear of another "Bernie supporter riot!"

[grasswire]

3. LOL

This is what democracy looks like.

[forest444]

9. Which is why Ms. Inevitable is so fond of e-voting.

She's seen democracy up close and personal, and isn't too sure she likes what she saw.

[big_dog]

12. SKYROCKETING EXIT POLLS!

great headline...lol

[truedelphi]

29. Why not go back to blathering on about how

Riotous Bernie supporters were, in Nevada?

Someone knocks over a chair and BOOM, it is the end of sanity.

Never mind that Hill's mentor Kissinger has done a whole lot more than knock over a few chairs.

[UnitedFront4Sanders]

54. In Philadelphia

Clinton and her supporters will show their true colors as the power structure and will use it to protect their interests and suppress the people.

[truedelphi]

59. I am very much hoping that pregnant women and

anyone thinking of bringing kids along, reconsider being in attendance!

[kayakjohnny]

7. Ha!

[RandySF]

2. Someone please correct me

Doesn't Oregon vote by mail? Where are they doing surveys?

[RoccoR5955]

4. They do surveys wherever they feel like. n/t

[ozone82]

6. There Are Drop Boxes....

In several places here where I live, Medford, for those don't want to mail their ballot in. I just mail mine back so I no idea about exit pols /shrugs could be though.

[roguevalley]

40. I grew up in central point. :-D

[libdem4life]

8. Try reading the article. It will answer ALL your questions.

"On Tuesday morning, a steady stream of cars pulled up to the drive-through Multnomah County ballot drop-off site located next to the McDonald’s drive-through in Northeast Portland’s Hollywood District. As the motorists deposited their ballots, a few pedestrians waited their turn. Cindy Dreher was one of them."

[LiberalArkie]

10. I think last election they had exit pollers at some of the drop boxes on election day.

[0rganism]

19. we often drop our ballots into drop boxes at public sites (libraries, elections offices, etc.)

while some do prefer to "mail it in" a week in advance, a lot of us like to take our time, vote over the weekend, and then drop off our ballots by hand.

if there are exit pollsters, they're probably hanging out around the drop boxes. naturally this underreports the "mail it in early" voters, but any early returns should be regarded with extreme skepticism anyway.

[pnwmom]

50. Why should early returns be regarded with "extreme skepticism'"? I sent my ballot in as soon

as i got it because there was no reason to wait.

[0rganism]

53. Multnomah often reports in late

for various reasons. plenty of times i was sure we had somehow elected a Republican governor and then realized Multnomah hadn't reported in yet.

[JDPriestly]

41. I have a daughter in Oregon. She has a mail-in ballot but delivers

it to the polls. Doesn't always do that, but she did it today.

Naturally, she called home to let us know she had voted.

Hurrah! It's going to be big for Bernie. It's Oregon after all.

[RealAmericanDem]

5. makes no difference at all. California will give it to Hillary even if she loses.

[kayakjohnny]

11. Blah blah, fuckin blah.

Thanks for your originality and insight.

Blah blah, fuckin blah....

[grasswire]

14. Keep up.

Polling tonight shows Sanders surge in CA.

[kayakjohnny]

23. Cool!

I'm all for it!

[EdwardBernays]

31. link?

please

[reACTIONary]

51. Oh yes, and by the way....

.... makes no difference at all. California will give it to Hillary even if she loses.

[MrMickeysMom]

25. Derp

[catnhatnh]

45. As have so many

media outlets...

[Recursion]

13. "Oregon exit polls"?

Umm....

[grasswire]

16. from now til 8 will come a HUGE vote in Portland

It's kind of a tradition to drive to a drop box and drop your ballot then.

That's how polling happens.

[Recursion]

17. OK, but that's then not a probability sample of the electorate

So I mean what good does polling the people who do that do?

[Arugula Latte]

30. Voting for Bernie in Portland ...

"and I helped."

(old Shake 'n' Bake ad reference)

[Viva_La_Revolution]

39. yep, 3 mailed in, 2 dropped off tonight out of the 5 in our house

[Codeine]

15. Didn't you just horribly misread the same site

regarding California? Read it before you deleted. . .

[RandySF]

18. Newspaper interviews. Not an exit poll.

[hedda_foil]

20. From your lips to God's ear on Oregon, but ...

It's a mail in only state, so election day drop offs don't necessarily mean much at all.

That said, there's no way Oregon doesn't go big for Bernie provided the vetting and counting process is as clean as Oregonians think it is.

[passiveporcupine]

38. I read that the polls favored Hillary, so I hope you are right.

I didn't understand that poll (from Oregon Live), because everything I've heard from Oregonians was pretty positive for Bernie.

Will be on pins and needles till tonight. This is my state. I want my state to be a Bernie state.

"Bernie or bust!" exclaimed Sellwood acupuncturist Amanda Real. That seemed to be the prevailing feeling at the Portland neighborhood drop-off site, with overwhelming support for Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders and, in some cases, extreme distrust of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

55. We Never Pay Attention to The Oregonian

The Oregonian used to be a good newspaper. Now it is owned by Right Wing Libertarians who worship pot, beer, sports and hate anything that taxes pay for. It is a hang out for right wing trolls.

[passiveporcupine]

56. Good to know, thanks

My Mom used to typset for them, but that was many moons ago when they still used huge typsetting machines that made lead slugs. I've spent the night there as a kid while Mom was working swing. Not comfortable staying in the break room, but fun for a kid. Got a tour of the whole printing process.

[Jackie Wilson Said]

26. Driving Hillary nuts, and her campaign. if she wins after all this, Bernie will have MUCH

influence.

[Beartracks]

43. Here's hopin'. We need a progressive push in this country.

You can't balance the rightward tilt of the nation's political scales by running to the center!

====================

[Darb]

49. Bernies influence went out the door last weekend with that idiot stunt in Nevada.

Not to mention his idiotic press release. So much for your revolution, it died last Saturday in Vegas.

[Attorney in Texas]

27. The slogon of The Marshall Report is Reality Has a Progressive Bias (not Real w/a Progressive Bias)

[CountAllVotes]

35. Welcome to the Democratic Underground spinboas

and Welcome!

[wisteria]

32. He still loses, even if he wins.

The end result is the same. He will not and can not catch up at this point. I don't say this in a mean way, but, Irvin's time to face facts.

[quakerboy]

33. Barring a California miracle, the math isnt there.

Although the more votes he gets, the closer he gets to her totals.. the more she really has to consider what he has to say and what she has to do to earn those votes in the GE. Every vote he gets is good for all the rest of us, and for the principles that Bernie has been championing. Thats a win, even if its not the win we wanted.

[truebluegreen]

48. That's it exactly.

Hillary and the rest of the DLC/Third Way/New Democrats need to realize that it's not their party anymore, even if they eke out a win this time.

[WHEN CRABS ROAR]

34. After standing on highway 101 in a small town in Southern Oregon

with my sign that read "HONK FOR BERNIE" I estimated that about 1/3 of the drivers going by honked.
So there you have it, a completely unscientific polling on what's going on in Oregon.
At least no one shot at me.

I just can't make up my mind who I want to win or lose !

(CNN)Hillary Clinton will be the "unofficial winner" of Kentucky's Democratic primary, the state's secretary of state told CNN Tuesday.

"I do believe ... that based on what we are seeing coming in, that Kentucky will remain in a win column for the Clintons," Kentucky secretary of state Alison Lundergan Grimes told Wolf Blitzer. "Hillary Clinton will be the unofficial winner."
It would be a razor-thin win for Clinton. With 99% of the vote in, Clinton is ahead of Sanders 46.7% to 46.3%. Clinton and Sanders have flipped back and forth in the lead through the evening as votes come in across the state.
For its part, the Clinton campaign claimed victory.
"We just won Kentucky!" the campaign twee





Chris here

donuts simply are too , winners one and all !



Hello folks Ben here !




You know i placed Bernie Sanders on Trump's short list for vp, but you know Trump rejected the idea . I think Trump wants Palin because he really wants somebody stupid to make him look smart.After all it is the stupid stuff that made Trump.And if Trump were to win than walk out on his first term ,the nation would be stuck with a deep dumb thinker. That or he's afraid of a vp pick who is in fact smarter than he is.
I am beginning to think the best bet is to dump Trump !

57. I LOVE OREGON.

I love living in
