Rand Paul did much better than I thought he would. Good for him! Maybe all but the top 5 will drop out now.

There's an easy joke here, but I'll resist it.
The evening in this case. The Bernie side was mixed. A good deal of younger people, working class, and some older people.
C-Span's coverage is positively riveting. One eoman reading numbers to another woman who writes them down on a piece of paper. Then they get out their calculators and start adding up the numbers. At one point one of the women asked another person to go get some masking tape.
I agree with another poster that was surprised how well Cruz is doing in the bigger cities. My Des Moines district had Rubio winning with 63 votes and second place was Cruz with only 18.
The governor was at my site but didn't see who he voted for.
I should note that this was my first caucus and I can't believe the voting process and how loose it was. I registered at the location and they checked nothing. I could have voted without registering as no one was paying attention to the check-in or really checking. I wouldn't be surprised if there is cheating going on in places.

My Ankeny site went 109 to 90 for Hillary. Delegates split 4-4. Big turnout of new dems and voters both.
No way! HuffPo has assured me that election fraud is a total non-issue. Never happens. Nope, nope, nope. Everyone is totally legit when it comes to voting.

God, these officials are horrible. I can't believe Fran isn't going crazy.
Oops, wrong game thread...

The old people were told by the lamestream media that Clinton was the only choice. They were not on the Internet seeing the Sanders wave growing.
I'm SHOCKED that Hillary is under 1% over Sanders. There are a lot of Sanders supporters that are young and stayed home tonight because they didn't think it would be this close and were intimidated by the voting process.
Cruz declared the winner.
A lot of surprises in this, it was a weird race. Trump runs REALLY well in Western Iowa including Sioux City where you'd expect Cruz to run well. However, Trump does not run well in Des Moines, Cedar Rapids, Iowa City areas and Cruz runs really well/better than I thought in Eastern Iowa.

Dam, can't believe Obama stole our country. Thank god and baby Jesus and those evangelicals for taking our country back.
I just can't imagine how the Republicans can win the general election this fall. I know the Democrats haven't exactly put an A-list out there, but the three amigos of the Republican party makes Mitt Romney look like the greatest candidate ever.
we do? Obama took their guns and bullets away, cheered nadal hassan and told iran to nuke us??
On next year of the apprentice, the winner runs the Donald's farm!
I (and a whole lot of others) can't imagine how the Republicans can lose the general election.
The "Democrats haven't exactly put an A-list out there"?!
Hint: their situation is much worse than that.
Yeah...it's Iowa. Cheatin' and hustlin' aren't a way of life here Trad. We Iowans are by nature, honest.
Yes we do my friend. Despite that has been said, our military might has not wavered, except in the category of morale.
It's still the strongest, but don't kid yourself. The margin isn't nearly as wide as it once was.
They can lose it by selecting Cruz or Trump. Rubio is by far their best shot at winning the election.
I think the thing that disgusts me most about Cruz winning is knowing that Steve King & Bob Vander Plaats were his big supporters.
Nah.
Just about anyone who could support Rubio could support Cruz. They are very similar in their convictions.
