Got a Call from a Friend who is a Precinct Captain down in Austin
He says that there was a very large turnout at his Caucus Location. Upwards of 300 people.

At one point he said that a Lady told the crowd that Hillary supporters could come to the other side of the room to vote faster, and nobody moved.

He said it appeared that over 90% of the people were for Obama.

Goooooooobama!!!!!

4. I've been saying for weeks that Travis County could go 90% Obama
and I wouldn't be surprised.

People here distrust candidates viewed as pro-global-corporatocracy, and very against the war, and there are 50,000+ students at The University of Texas.
