Cult Watch Title: GOP Nevada Caucus Results in Accusations of Polling Irregularities, Double Voting ("Trump supporters") GOP officials are reportedly looking into accusations of voting irregularities including ballot shortages and double voting, after reports of a chaotic scene unfolded during Tuesdays Nevada Caucus. RNC spokesman Fred Brown acknowledged that there were reports of long lines and not enough ballots at Palo Verde High School Tuesday night, which resulted in some voters being turned away and directed to another location. In response to reports of double-voting, political reporter and commentator Jon Ralston reported that one GOP official said the party takes reports of double voting very seriously and we will be reviewing ballots. Obviously we take reports of double voting very seriously and we will be reviewing ballots. There is a master sign in and that we will be checking closely as well. In terms of running out of ballots, we were prepared for that, and more were on site in a matter or minutes. Other thing to know is because you have multiple precincts in one spot, not the entire place was in chaos, just a select few that were rushed, which contained the problems. Business mogul Donald Trump was declared the winner of the Nevada Caucus, taking 45.9% of the vote. In a rally prior to the caucus, Trump warned voters to watch out for Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, claiming that he is the single biggest liar Trump has ever known. Watch out for dishonest stuff because Ill tell you what, a lot of dishonesty with this, Trump said. You just gotta be careful. They have paper ballots. They have the whole deal going. So just watch out. Trump claimed Cruz is the best Ive ever seen when it comes to lying, and then added, Of course, really, the great liars are the ones that dont get caught, right? However, many of the polling irregularities that were reported Tuesday night were in connection with Trump supporters. Twitter user Josh Jordan posted a series of pictures of caucus-goers in Trump gear, claiming that ballots were being tucked under envelopes, and voters were not being checked for ID.

Perfectly acceptable and very common for Nv caucus workers to festoon themselves with all manner of political paraphernalia of their faves.
