(02-04-2020, 11:24 AM)HURRICANE!!! Wrote: OMG --- I watched it unfold on MSNBC last night. So, we essentially have a bunch of old people congregate in gymnasiums and was 4 hours getting headcounts of people supporting each candidate by sitting in sections of the stands. The headcount is done by hand and written on tablet paper. If a certain candidate doesn't get 15% of the vote, his supporters then migrate to their 2nd choice, and the count is done all over again. Only old or unemployed people have time to sit in a gym for 4 hours to get his single vote counted.

[BLEEP] !!! Are we still back in the 1800s ? Someone please notify Iowa we have this thing called software that can actually tally up votes.

It blows my mind that Australia, New Zealand, and Ireland voters have been marking their first, second, and third favorite candidate on paper ballots for decades, and we still have people spend a school night shouting across the gym at the high school just so maybe they can register their second choice.

My fellow southpaw Mark Brunell will probably always be my favorite Jaguar.
