Turnout high thus far in RI

Weather not great either and the elderly in RI almost never come out if it is like this.

I think we are going to take RI today and wait until you see the numbers Drumpf is going to get here.

It's scary


How we looking elsewhere?

In PA, I hope supporters come out for Bernie as they should, and possibly some pick up in northern Del.
I know little about CT voting. Hope you're right about Rhode Island, nice Atlantic coast state from what I've seen.

It's not just delegate numbers, it's the psychological impact on the remaining races.

By the way, I'll be doing GOTV phonebanking, for Bernie, from home today!

I'm guessing CT would be a state that Bernie can win since it's his backyard. Is CT possible?

I am predicting that will be Clinton friendly.

But other parts of the state are more middle class and just might be hopeful for Bernie.

But, I haven't lived there in over 15 years so not sure if this is valid anymore.
