Welcome to a WEIRD week in Politics!

Thursday, 2/8 - Now with 54% reporting in the Nevada Caucus, Trump was declared the winner after just the first percent was in:

1% results:
Donald Trump - 97.6% - 362 votes
Ryan Binkley - 2.4% - 9 votes

54% results:
Donald Trump - 99.3% - 32,527 votes
Ryan Binkley - 0.7% - 235 votes

Tuesday, 2/6, marks the Nevada Primary where Nikki Haley is running primarily (!) against “None of the Above”.

AP Results Page here, 88% counted:

On the Republican side, the AP has called “None of These Candidates” the winner.

None of These Candidates - 43,893 - 63.2%
Nikki Haley - 21,199 - 30.5%
Mike Pence - 2,752 - 4.0%
Tim Scott - 950 - 1.4%
John Castro - 235 - 0.3%

On the Democratic side, it’s Biden all the way:

Joe Biden - 98,358 - 89.3%
None of These Candidates - 6,398 - 5.8%
Marianne Williamson - 3,173 - 2.9%
Gabriel Cornejo - 630 - 0.6%
Jason Palmer - 385 - 0.3%

Which, in the end, doesn’t really matter because the delegates which determine who the party nominee are, are not apportioned by the state PRIMARY, they are determined in the state CAUCUS on Thursday, 2/8.

Trump is running largely unopposed in the Caucus.

We’ll leave the megapost up long enough to cover both events.

Please keep all comments and posts related to the Primary and Caucus in this Megapost.
