March 2 Open Thread!

by — ,

It’s obviously not huge news (I heard it on KUOW yesterday morning, but I don’t see it on their website, and there isn’t anything more current than the link below in a Google Search) but I’m surprised there isn’t more coverage of the legislature’s plan to kick McCleary down the road. Or, more formally: to start a task force.

I mean, don’t get me wrong, I’m glad there’s even a tiny amount of forward motion. But the decision was 2012. The contempt was 2014. It’s 2016 now. We’re past task force time.

Super Tuesday Discussion Thread

by — ,

There will be lots of election results coming in today. Here is a thread to discuss ’em. Note that this is NOT an open thread. If you want to engage in baby talk, poo flinging, or non-election discussions, kindly take it to the previous thread.

Unfortunately, I have an afternoon and evening packed with non-blogging stuff, so I’ll update this post when I can.

Here are the poll closing times tonight:

  • 4:00pm PST: Georgia, Vermont, Virginia
  • 5:00pm PST: Alabama, Massachusetts, Oklahoma, Tennessee, most of Texas
  • 5:30pm PST: Arkansas
  • 6:00pm PST: A bit of W. Texas

And here are the Caucus starting times tonight:

  • 11:00am PST: American Samoa (D)
  • 5:00pm PST: Minnesota (D & R)
  • 6:00pm PST: Colorado (D)
  • 9:00pm PST: Alaska (R)

6:45: Don’t forget American Samoa…where Clinton won four delegates.

6:48: Clueless Mr. Drumpf: “I don’t know if Hillary will be allowed to run!” What…did Hillary start a scam “university” or something?
