2020 US Presidential Primary Election Results (and polls)

Post Reply New Topic

Here we go.

This thread is meant for discussion of the primary election results as they come in through the season, rather than for general politics. (It can run up to the nominating conventions when the parties select their nominees.)

Today is "Super Tuesday" when 13 (?) states hold their party primaries. It's now 6:30 p.m. on the east coast, so the first results should be coming in soon.

Just came back from casting my vote at the local Congregational church, so I've done my duty until November.

First polls close at 7pm eastern in Vermont and Virginia.

This is also a good factual site to find out what exactly is on each party and local ballot: https://ballotpedia.org/Main_Page

It's 14 states that hold primaries today: Alabama, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Maine, Massachusetts, Minnesota, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Vermont, and Virginia.

Biden takes Virginia and North Carolina

Biden forecast to take North Carolina. https://www.realclearpolitics.com/

Bernie will likely do very poorly in the South.

Biden now forecast to take Alabama also.

Biden forecast to win Oklahoma.

Biden now way ahead in the delegate counts, which is kind of what matters, but all kinds of funky stuff happens at the convention so delegate counts don't always matter either.

Not a good night for Bernie in Arkansas. Looks like MissLizard didn't register enough people at the local cemetery...

Biden had Massachusetts,which contradicts earlier polls.

Sanders leading Texas and California but polling data has proved inaccurate do far.
