The Nevada Democratic Party is denying a shortage of volunteers despite what some of our reporters are hearing. Catch up: NevadaCaucus
LAS VEGAS — As Nevada Democrats began caucusing Saturday, Bernie Sanders appeared destined to clinch another early-state victory and become the unmistakable frontrunner in the presidential primary.Volunteers failed to show up at some caucus sites, but state party officials downplayed concerns.More significant was the prospect Nevada could do what Iowa and New Hampshire couldn’t: Bring clarity to the rest of a still-muddled campaign.
“It has the makings of a shitshow,” said a top advisor to Biden’s campaign. “We’ve been approached to help and we’ll help. But do we really want campaigns involved in tallying votes for the caucus?” Addressing reporters at a forum on Friday night, AFSCME President Lee Saunders said, “I am very, very hopeful that we will not have the debacle that we had in Iowa.”Early entrance polls suggested that Sanders has a significant advantage, with roughly a third of caucus-goers saying he was their first choice.
A third washout here could be too much for his would-be supporters to endure, presaging a collapse in South Carolina and on Super Tuesday.
