    ***Official Super Tuesday In-Day Thread******

    Lots of talk about today on the board. What happens? Do we see Trump or Hillary take commanding leads today? Insurmountable leads? Where do we see the surprises happening? How many combined primaries can Rubio, Cruz, and Bernie take first in? Over under 3??

    People voting for Donald Trump in today’s Super Tuesday Texas Primary are seeing their ballots changed to show a vote for Marco Rubio.

    Numerous callers flooded Austin-based radio station KLBJ this morning with reports of mistakes after they tried to vote for Trump.


    According to KLBJ, “computer freezeups” and other “glitches” are causing voting snafus at locations all around Travis County.

    Trump supporters previously accused the Rubio campaign of stealing votes in Iowa after the Florida Senator achieved a surprise third place finish.

    If Rubio fails to secure a strong finish in today’s primaries he could be forced to drop out of the race altogether.
    Rubio’s Super Pac has poured $1.5 million of its budget into Texas in an effort to take delegates away from home state favorite Ted Cruz.

    Interesting he would steal from Cruz - they should both be attacking Trump to make sure Trump doesn't get the required delegates for longer period of time. Very interesting early results if that report from Austin is right. Have to hope everything is on the up and up. This is politics so I am sure nothing silly happening.......

    Was thinking of making one of these........

    but thought it would just turn into another one of the Bernie supporters "Lets moan and bitch because no-one understands bernie like we do and you are all corporate trolls" threads

    They rarely get it wrong. If their exit polls show a big enough advantage they would rather be first to report and eat crow on rare chance they are wrong.

    Republican party is dead

    Dems going forward united

    Republicans are deeply divided with R senators saying no way they vote for Trump, and they'll vote for a 3rd party candidate

    Trump backers, enjoy your money on the primaries, hopefully you sprinkled a bit on Criz a few weeks ago at +2200

    But when it comes to national election, get ready for 8 more years, and a weaker Republican party going forward

    Its not weird Booya

    Its a sign of the times

    They're trying smoke and mirrors, to appear more friendly to minorities

    Expect even more of this going forward,

    In 8 years, the two major parties will be the traditional Democrats and the Neo-Democrats, formerly known as Republicans

    Good job America!

    Yes I do. So do the books.

    A big problem is that there are factions within the GOP that will not vote Trump, and thats a huge problem going forward

    He's anti-establisment and that appeals to people, and turns others away

    In a close race, I dont think he can beat Hilary

    Kraken....Some of the GOP leaders and media are saying and threatening things about Trump right now but I think ultimately they will choose him over Hillary

    Also the actual voters matter more than what some of these guys have to say.....As we are seeing in the primary race. "No one" likes Trump in the media/Establishment but he's winning almost everything

    This is a possibility I admit

    First, I think Trump winning is like the less of all evils. This has to be the weakest group the GOP has ever put out since 2012 It's kind of like when a sub .500 team wins it's division in NFL or NBA, they won basically because someone had to win. Trump is the same way I think.

    Hilary is a big time player, well connected and there will be a lot of support from people that loved BILL. She's probably the most qualified person ever to run for president as a former first lady, NY Senator and Sec of State. That's an uber impressive resume.

    If Trump beats Billary, I will to him because that will be a magic trick, and I'll look forward to seeing what an anti-establishment candidate can actually achieve

    I don't even think Trump is on pace yet to reach 1,237. Does he have half of the delegates awarded?

    I think yes he's 268/529 so far (50.7%).

    Florida, Ohio and Illinois will be key on March 15. If Trump wins Florida then it's practically over.

    After the end of yesterday, Trump has less than half of the delegates allocated. And yet, the sheeple think it's over.

    March 15th is the key day in this race. If Trump sweeps Florida, Ohio, Illinois and Missouri -- then it's over.

    The odds of that disastrous scenario did increase yesterday. I was hoping Trump would have won 10
    of the 11 states having a strangle hold on the nomination. The sportsbooks had Trump -240 in Oklahoma
    and he lost, -800 in Alaska & he lost & even money in Minnesota & he lost. That's a little discouraging.
    I think he will win the nomination either before or after a convention fight but I was a lot more confident
    yesterday.

    I agree, but on the other side of the coin I thought Cruz would drop out after yesterday, now he stays in and Rubio stays in, should make Florida easier for trump and if he can win Ohio also it would be huge for him
