    Julian Castro is OUT. I think this man deserves at least 1 Trump tweet exit ribbing. He earned it

    Hmm... define "soon". I agree Gabbard has no chance, but don't think she's likely to drop out "soon". She seems to be the type to stay in as a protest candidate. She could actually outlast Warren who would probably drop out after Super Tuesday if it seems inevitable she won't win. Yang could possibly stay in for a while too. Klobuchar could stay in for a while hoping Biden has a heart attack. Not sure what Bloom and Stey Guy are thinking. Booker probably will drop out soon. I think he's just sticking around hoping people will eventually realized he's the only colored guy remaining. And I had to google to make sure Bennet hadn't already dropped out yet. Indeed he is still running... for some reason.

    Actually what happens if Biden amasses a ton of delegates and then dies/becomes incapacitated? Do those delegates become unbound and we have a brokered convention?

    Speaking of having the field whittled down, it looks likely that we'll have a 5 person debate in January. Yang only has 1 of 4 qualifying polls, and only 8 days left to get the remaining 3 polls. Prediction markets only give him a 16% chance. The pollsters have been sleepy because of the holidays. There's simply been very few qualifying polls released since the last debate.

    The debate's on the 14th and is the last debate before the Iowa Caucus, and it's being held in Des Moines. Little Amy has to be happy about that.

    I really hope this shit happens.
    The media would go fucking nuts and people would go fucking insane. Complete Chaos.

    In the presidential election, the Democrats will flip Arizona, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin but the Republicans will flip New Hampshire. The result will be a tie in the electoral college. Under Article II, section 1, of the Constitution, the choice must then be made by the House of Representatives.
    The 26 states that have a majority red House delegation will vote Republican; the 22 states that have a majority blue delegation vote Democratic. The other two states, where the delegations are divided, will cast no vote, resulting in another tie.
    Before the courts can rule, the political parties will agree to hold a new presidential election in February of 2021. Under the agreement, Trump will remain in office until that time but can take no action without the concurrence of Congress. Lawsuits will immediately be filed to block the plan, including by Trump himself, who will claim that not having been defeated in the election, he should win by default.

    If democratic nominee dies after the convention, the most recent living nominee assumes the nomination by default.
