Caucus is a bunch of scheduled meetings, run by the party. Starting times can be whenever the locals want, as long as it is between 5 and 7 pm local time. Ending time can be whatver the locals want, as long as it is before 9 pm local time. There is no statewide "fixed" scedule, other than they all have to close their meetings by 9pm local time.

Clark County has 40 such meetings. The Clark County meeting schedule is ...

   5:00 pm - Sign-in Begins / PPP Polls Open
   6:00 pm - Candidate Presentations
   7:00 pm - Delegate Nominations & Elections Begin
   8:30 pm - PPP Polls Close / Count Begins
   9:00 pm - Meeting Closes

Trump donated to Reid, I suspect Nevada identifies with that too.

I never remember the Nevada caucus being a big ‘news’ deal before.

Here is the Nevada Republican primary system explained:

It's a sanity check / bellwether indicator for Trump. If he wins big here, it shows he

a) does respectably in the more staid, rural midwest (Iowa)

b) outperforms in New England (New Hampshire, big surprise) c) doesn't repel strong evangelicals in the Bible Belt (South Carolina) d) plays well in the West

which leaves basically California, Vermont, and Minnesota as Dem Shoo-ins, and maybe Maryland. Even New York and New Jersey will be in play.

Tomorrow is the South Carolina primary, and this week Donald Trump has been telling supporters that if he wins South Carolina he thinks he could, quote, “Run the table.” Yeah. And if he doesn’t win, he’ll flip over the table like an angry New Jersey housewife. ~ Jimmy Fallon

Trump said on Hannity last night that he had a lot of his people in Vegas because - Then he smiled real big- “We all know how Vegas is!” The audience had a big laugh.

Lol, no way Carson suspends tonight. Not when he can continue to limit Cruz’ vote totals in the “SEC primary”.

Now that is good news.

Lol excellent timeline!

May I add:

Cruz claims victory
Rubio claims victory
Press claims Trump hits ceiling

[Salvation]

Bumping the live thread for tonight.

I posted a thread about Hitler’s deformed private parts but it got pulled. Too much censorship. I think FReepers can handle a mature discussion on how Hitler’s deformed private parts may had made him crazy with devastating impact on the history of the world.

Still a six-way tie, with everyone at 0.0%. It’s a real nail-biter!
