Despite my self-imposed news blackout, I was still following the blogs in my Google Reader. I also have one that my readers can follow, on my own website’s sidebar. If you had been watching it throughout the evening, you would have noted that there was a lot of primary reports highlighted from most of my favorite bloggers. Which is why I am glad I had the tv set to soft, soulful, music because I’m sure that the media noise...
I will not pretend to understand the very complex rules of the California Democratic Party with regard to delegate counts after the Primary. I do know these two things: A.

DemDaily shall attempt to bring you news periodically throughout the evening. Time willing the updates will be more frequent starting around 6PM PST. More as time permits. Of course it’ll be a late evening. Hang in there! A question: Why the hell are CNN and others calling states which can impact voting in other states yet to close?
