What Time Will We Get Results?
As of this writing, 17 people in the comments section have asked, “What time can we expect results tonight?” Good question! According to our politics editor Micah Cohen, who apparently has time to go look this stuff up, here’s when the results were reported in 2012 (all times Eastern)
9 p.m. — 5 percent reported
10 p.m. — 25 percent reported
10:30 p.m. — 50 percent reported
11 p.m. — 90 percent reported
Midnight — 96 percent reported
So, that’s some context. We’ll likely know between 10:30 and 11 p.m. Keep in mind that this is the first year that results are being reported by an app, which may speed things up a bit. But it’s gonna be a long night. Chug a coffee.

I should note we have actual statewide delegate equivalents on the Democratic side: So far, with 6 percent in, it’s Clinton 52.5 percent to Sanders 46.6 percent.

Money. It's always about the money.
In Santorum's case, it's his money...wait, he's still in the race?

Hardly seems like they've had time to convince Jeb's people to join their side instead of Trump/Cruz/Rubio.

Sanders is starting to close the gap. I guess I'm going to be up late tonight.

We really [expletive] need baseball to start when GRB's finest have a big interest in the trivial circus known as Iowa Caucuses.
There is much out there more interesting. The Fire Log channel. The Extreme Sports thread...the update on freeds and jim's back issues thread...a bunch of threads about rappers. ...
