Also, targets I came up with the other day for Bernie to hit to be on pace to come back
Alaska: Sanders 12, Clinton 4 (72-78% of the vote)
Hawaii: Sanders 16, Clinton 9 (63-65% of the vote, 66% would be a coin flip for the 17th)
Washington: Sanders 71, Clinton 30 (70% of the vote)

Very possible that Hillary fails to get to 15% in Alaska. Still more likely than not that she does, but it's going to be close. She might be shut out of delegates there.
Tell me,[ NYT linky], what dumbshit thing is TehRump saying now?
Donald J. Trump, the Republican presidential front-runner, said that if elected, he might halt purchases of oil from Saudi Arabia and other Arab allies unless they commit ground troops to the fight against the Islamic State or “substantially reimburse” the United States for combating the militant group, which threatens their stability.
“If Saudi Arabia was without the cloak of American protection,” Mr. Trump said during a 100-minute interview on foreign policy, spread over two phone calls on Friday, “I don’t think it would be around.”
(cough) China would get involved in SA's defense, stat (cough)
Congratuations to Team Bernie. Rough night for my candidate, but we saw it coming and now it's time to move on.
And I agree that Bernie should stay in the race for as long as he wants: the contrast between the mostly civil competition on our side and the train wreck on their side should be a wake-up call to the mushy middle FFS…
Also hearing that Hawaii results will come all at once at around 6-7 local time. Which is 12-1am here on the east coast. Not planning to stay up for that.
Well, today will be better than when I had to get my car fixed yesterday, anyway
Congrats in advance to Team Bernie for what is likely to be a good night for him. Meanwhile, [fivethirtyeight has an interesting piece on how the Reeps could still pull a divide and conquer move on TehRump].
And in that case Trump goes third-party. Win-win for us!

[ Yooge lines, heavy to younger voters, ] might portend Washington is Berning up.

What today will probably feel like
@berniethoughts
SPORKS—TOO MODERATE
My favorite Bernie Thought (so far): I CANNOT PROVE IT—BUT WHEN YOU BITE INTO A MUSHROOM I THINK IT KNOWS
It's a gold mine.
@berniethoughts
I HAVE IT ON GOOD AUTHORITY THAT CLINTON DOESN'T PEEL HER STRING CHEESE—SHE JUST BITES THEM
WHILE OTHER NATIONS EAT WITH CHOPSTICKS WE ARE HERE USING MOUTH SHOVELS

10% reporting in WA, Sanders up 72-27.
15% reporting in AK, Sanders up 82-18.
And with Dems in AK, that's probably the actual vote tally.

Bernie Sanders wins Alaska.
None of this can be settled until we find who Lincoln Chafee is going to endorse.

I feel like I've heard this speech before.

Alaska has all results in. Bernie wins 81-19. That should be a 13-3 delegate split, which is above what he needed but Hillary did stay viable.
Also hearing that Hawaii results will come all at once at around 6-7 local time. Which is 12-1am here on the east coast. Not planning to stay up for that.
Go Bernie! Glad he's staying in. Elevates the debate.
Also too, thanks to those of you here who are Team Bernie for being civil. We've got an insufferable Bernie Bro at Wonkette just now.
|Well turns out Hawaii has its own problems with long lines at polling places.|
What is it with people named Sanders and birds? Bernie, Colonel…
One slaughters millions of 'em, the other is blessed by sparrows.
