Did Hillary really just win on a coin toss?
pity that trump didn't win tbhbut this new idea, I love it.Replace all ballot boxes with coin tosses and who knows, we might have a 50/50 chance of getting a good leader and a 50/50 chance for Fallout 61 years early.

This places both Clinton and Sanders on an even level of viability. As s Sanders fan, this is almost exactly what I wanted.

Even though I'm a Republican, I'm going to vote for Sanders in the primary so that Shillary doesn't win.

lol IowaThat is all.
I understand it's odd, but caucus's are literally different than anything else in our election process. We're talking about a place you go and bundle into groups as democrats and people come over to you going "ayy lmao, so wanna cum over here and support this one?"It's not "lol democracy" because it's about as democratic as you get in this country.But what people also need to understand, is that every form of government has its flaws. This is obviously democracies.
There were six tie breakers between Sanders and Clinton, and they were all decided with a coin toss.

One caucus =/= the entire thing, and there are only 15 states out of the 50 that use caucus's. The rest are just walk in and pull. And Iowa has always had this one off decision for a lot of people, especially republicans.

QuoteThere were six tie breakers between Sanders and Clinton, and they were all decided with a coin toss.It was either that though or the people there being disenfranchised. No one said democracy was perfect.
Cruz won in Iowa, he's basically the next president already tbh imo fam
From what I've gathered, at a caucus people can convince others to chance their vote right? all they had to do was have a discussion, but instead they do something silly. I don't expect perfection or anything close to it from democracy, but decision by coin toss does defeat the point of voting.
