If caucus votes go un-counted and un-reported is it intellectually dishonest to claim

[DFab420]

that you have more votes reported? I mean aren't you basically telling states that have caucuses that their opinions don't matter?

1. Err...

How would it be dishonest to not include unreported votes in a tally of reported votes?

2. Now that we are in the General Election, OPs like this are not helpful. nt

3. Caucus turnout is very small

And how do you count the 15% rule voters who get thrown in with other voters?

4. Turnout is so small for caucuses that the numbers

wouldn't really affect the totals. And some states, like Minnesota, do report popular vote in caucuses. In my own precinct, there was a total of 58 votes out of roughly 2300 registered voters. That's a turnout of just over 2%. In our primaries, we average about a 30% turnout. In the GE, we typically turn out over 60 percent.

58 votes. It doesn't matter in a total vote count. Not one bit.

And Minnesota reports actual popular vote. Other states with caucuses don't. Still, the numbers are so small that it wouldn't really change the totals. You may remember that Hillary has also won caucuses.

5. I'll tell you what

say he beat her by 1 million votes in all the caucus states. I would bet that not even close to 1 million voted in them in total but just give him 1 million for them. She still is up by 2 million. Is that good enough.
