Dem today and vote for BS.

Which so many @ at my polling place were doing. It seemed like the Twilight Zone to me.

Question: Why do you call it a Presidential Preference Poll and not a Caucus? •Answer: Because it’s not a caucus! The Poll has some similarities with other caucuses. The Democratic Party of Hawaii organizes and pays for the Poll. The Poll results will decide how Hawaii splits our 34 delegates to the Democratic National Convention. The polls are conducted at the local level. But unlike a caucus, the voting in Hawaii is by secret ballot.

Unlike Arizona's PP where you couldn't register Dem the same day you can in Hawaii.. so I pretty much know how that's going to turn out.
