I know we are hating reality here today but...

I am going to post some info here regarding the reality of the at large precincts in Nevada. I fully expect it to be denigrated by all the blind supporters of either candidate but in the interest of cutting through some of the bullshit here today here it is anyway.

Nevada Caucus Key Facts:


· The Rules and By-Laws Committee of the Democratic National Committee approved the Nevada Democratic Party’s plan to include additional At-Large precincts.

· Each of the presidential campaigns was fully informed about the rules on May 2, 2007, and throughout the process.

· Allied organizations INCLUDING THE NSEA political director were informed on October 4, 2007.

· The allocation ratios assigned to at-large precincts were derived from an objective formula set out in Nevada law and follow precedent in Nevada as best as possible. NRS 293.133 outlines the delegate allocation based on size of county in a sliding scale. The statutes themselves give more weight to attendees in smaller counties by granting lower ratios – the intent and purpose of which is to ensure under represented areas/communities, etc… still have a meaningful voice in the process.

· When you apply the allocation formula to the At Large precincts, the potential weight of a caucus attendee relative to the number of delegates in a voting precinct is actually greater than those in at-large precincts because the voting precincts have a guaranteed number of delegates based on registration

only in finding some way to bash the opposing candidate. Carry on with the fake outrage posts spinning the truth into some insane distortion of the truth.

I got my Orville Redenbacher at hand.

I'm sorry, but I just saw this. It got buried in all of the "Obama is Reagan's evil concubine" posts.

In any case, thanks very much for the information, particularly the dates. I think those highlight what bullshit this lawsuit really was. I only wish that the MSM had done their homework and had the dates as well.... It's pretty damning.

it just might be a bit higher than the average - and based on those projections the potential weight of a casino caucus attendee may well be 5 to 10 times other voters.

but I doubt anyone is interested in read this court document either. What's a democrat to do?
