(48 posts)I caucused in Las Vegas yesterday for Bernie. It was a disorganized mess from registration through the caucus and delegate selection. In my precinct, the guy running the process dismissed everyone before the delegates were selected. If we hadn't jumped up and stopped everyone and reminded them that we needed delegates to represent our vote at the next caucus - yesterday would have been a waste. Almost a deliberate attempt not to register delegates. So we got it straightened out but damn. I dont know if we would have won, but I'm sure it would have been a lot closer.
I am a delegate to go to the county caucus in April and I know we are outnumbered but we will be better prepared to document any attempt to misrepresent or affect the actual results.
Its a long race and if we have to independent so be it.

Endorsements, recognition, funds and supporters are growing week by week.
It ain't over, by far. Bernie was a long distance runner, and still is in this race.

But she lost the last one...so ....
Beside, Sanders has started something I hope won't just go away.
