The Official Dallas Hwy Caucus and Primary Thread

DeSantis camp objects to media calling the race so early.

They should have waited until voting was over, that's the usual procedure.

 
Evidently he won enough votes in the more populated precincts to call it with confidence.

Not true. The race was called before most precincts had actually voted. They called it based on entrance polls.
 
Wait just a minute, is DS claiming the election wasn’t fair? Sounds awful close to it to me.
Wasn't there a lot of bitching when Fox News called the win for Biden when not all the states had finished voting in 2020?
 
Ohhhhh, I thought you meant people here were bitching about it. I didn’t know you meant Trump, that doesn’t surprise me at all.

:coffeespit:
 
In all seriousness, we could all wake up tomorrow morning to find the actual results much different than the projections. Stranger things have happened at 2am. I wish all of the candidates good luck. We’ll, except for Haley.
 
If these numbers continue, it's clear that Vivek should drop out. Then Haley and DeSantis have to battle it out so only one of them is left to challenge Trump. They need to do it very quickly if either wants to have a shot at the nomination. Approximately half of the Republicans voting don't want Trump.

So much for my prediction....I knew it was a long shot but I was hopeful. Clearly the Republican party likes Trump more than I do. I still think nominating him will be a massive mistake given his upcoming trials, Biden's likely replacement before November, and with Trump being a massive motivation for Democrat voters to go out and vote against him.

Vivek should have already dropped out. He's waiting for a promise, as in cabinet level or VP.

While I'm not ruling a Biden replacement out, the chatter indicates it's becoming less likely. We'll just have to wait and see.
 
77% now. DeSantis up by 2

I really thought Haley would do better, and even cut into Trump's numbers some. But apparently not.

The Democrats would be exceptionally stupid to not replace Biden as long as his replacement is not named Harris. The Democrats are better at scheming elections so I doubt they will be that stupid.
