2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumBernie is killing it in Alaska.
Anchorage was packed, 5000+ caucus-goers, all local districts seem to be going for Sanders. My district was 243 for Bernie, 109 for Hillary, and from what I've seen from the other districts, this was one of Hillary's stronger showings. In many of the smaller districts around the state, she didn't even make the 15% threshold. I have yet to see Hillary with the lead in any of Alaska's 40 districts.
It's been an amazing day and exciting to see so many enthusiastic people. And for those who say that Millennials only go to rallies and don't vote - NOT TRUE, at least not here.
