    Some of the local races I didn't have a strong preference for, I simply voted against someone who resorted to negative campaigning.

    If that makes me a naive voter, I'll bask in that.

    I heard this morning that most of the ballots in Pa. are Diebold machines.

    If that's true . . . Clinton by 28%.

    Rules are the rules.

    If she'd had a f'n clue about caucuses, she'd be in much better shape. But she
    finessed them, anxiously awaiting anticipated cascades of rose petals in her path (a presumption all too common in multiple arenas, these days). She failed to capitalize on the rules in place, coming into this one. She's running second, and she ain't winning. Play on.

    Al at The Field has a great rundown up, district by district.

    Also, from the Dept. of What The Fuck:

    At least one Obama watch party tonight in rural PA will be at the Black Elk's club. Am I the only one who didn't know that in rural PA, they have segregated service organizations?

    What happens in rural PA stays in rural PA.

    Seriously, a quick google search shows that there are/were Black Elks Clubs in a lot of places.

    Yes, it does.

    I had no idea.

    Hillary by 9 percent.

    And the people running the massive manna tanks in Heaven impatiently continue their holding pattern.

    What's the prediction for which network will call PA first and how minutes after the polls close at 8 will they declare a winner?

    I'd guess CNN calls it first, but I doubt it will be right away.

    The way elections have gone in PA the last few cycles, you're going to need to have substantial samples from several different regions before you feel comfortable calling it.
