Finally. Here is how my entire county voted.

This includes all candidates from all 4 parties on the ballots.

I thnk Cruz has won Missouri on the recount, with c8000 votes going missing (5000 for Trump, 3000 for Cruz) giving Cruz just enough to take the state and the 12 state wide delegates. One district also flipped to Cruz meaning in total the delegate count switches from 42/10 in Trumps favour to 27/25 in Cruz's favour. This also give Cruz another state with 50%+ of the delegates which he needs going into the convention to meet rule 40.

I smell a rat!

If you're solidly middle class in America, Bernie's policies bang you in the tailgate.

Tailpipe, banged without remorse. Sander's tax plan is the fiscal equivalent of personal finance rape.

These ideas that we just need to tax the rich and make companies pay their fair share need to look at real numbers. This breakdown of our wealth will really open your eyes.



You can take all the profits from all the companies and all the wealth from every billionaire and you won't have enough money to run the country for 1 year! Then, once it's all gone, what are you going to do? The death by a thousand cuts is whats killing jobs and opportunity. When you make it more profitable to leave the country than stay here, no wonder there are no jobs!

OMG I think Bernie is a nice enough guy but OMG that made me shut the door in his face. From your link:

According to the Tax Foundation’s Taxes and Growth Model, Senator Bernie Sanders’s tax plan would reduce the economy’s size by 9.5 percent in the long run. The plan would lead to 4.3 percent lower wages, an 18.6 percent smaller capital stock, and 6.0 million fewer full-time equivalent jobs. The smaller economy results from higher marginal tax rates on capital and labor income.

Bernie means well, but he lacks even a frog's hair worth of economic intelligence. He may well be the most fiscally inept and ignorant man in Washington DC.

Not that I support Bernie, but this is only part of the story. His plan includes significant reduced expenditure for the lower deciles - e..g. free tuition. The best way of looking at his plan is to look at the effect on disposable/discretionary income.
