Ace Beats Six: Hillary Clinton Wins Nevada Delegate in Card Draw Tie-Breaker
PAHRUMP, Nev. Hillary Clinton won one delegate in a tie precinct in Pahrump, Nev., because her precinct captain won a card draw against Bernie Sanderss.
The 30 voters in Precinct 10 at Morse Elementary School split even, 15 to 15. Per state Democratic Party rules, the precinct chairwoman, Peggy Rhoades, produced the sealed deck of cards she was provided to break the tie and award the fifth available delegate to the candidate with the high card. (Follow our Nevada live blog.)
Ms. Rhoades, a member of the Nye County Democratic Partys central committee, removed the jokers from the deck. Representatives from the Clinton and Sanders campaign asked her to shuffle the cards three times, which she did, before spreading the 52 cards out across a table.
Mrs. Clintons representative went first: She pulled the ace. Mr. Sanderss precinct captain couldnt top that with his six of hearts.

(14,733 posts)The coin flips in Iowa don't have any sort of quantum entanglement with the card cut in Nevada. It was going to be 50-50 one or the other here, no matter who won the coin flips. That's the least iffy part of anything that went on in Nevada.
