Emmanuel Stanus-ghibThank you.

Emmanuel Stanus-ghibAs the PCO i'm going to ask everyone in my caucus to write down the names of friends and family members who they know for a fact have submitted surrogate forms. I'm disturbed by this news because iv'e turned in approximately 16 surrogate forms from co-workers and friends, most of which are not in my precinct. Is there any way for people who have submitted surrogate forms to check and see that their forms have made it back?

Lori HeggemI would like that answered as well, Emmanuel

Bob BurrOnly if they have friends who will be at the precinct caucus. An incident report can be filed with the PCO or caucus chair. If enough people complain to the State Party. I would press them to set up a hotline, With 18 times more surrogate forms than in 2008, screw-ups are natural. I hope that this is not an epidemic problem.

Emmanuel Stanus-ghibMe too. Thanks for bringing this to our attention.

Annika FlemingWoah. Okay. How do I get in contact with someone from my precinct? I'm out of the state right now I want to make sure my form ended up where it needed to.

Paula SmithHUM!

John HoguePeople who filed surrogate forms and had a change in plans that now allows them to caucus can do so, just make it clear to the PCO (acting or elected) that you did so. If your surrogate form is not there for whatever reason of course you can turn in a new ballot.

Lyn BaileyThank you Bob

Emmanuel Stanus-ghibI'm at my precinct setting up looking through the surrogate forms and I notice my girlfriends is missing.

Alan HallGood job on the speech, Bob! Only Bernie himself could have received more applause! :)

Scott SandersonWE AWARDED DELEGATES 4 TO 1 FOR BERNIE IN 265 !

Mark WaschkeWe as well had missing surrogate forms. The PCO said take it up with the Bernie office [they faxed it in last fri.]. I said it was a Dem thing that it wasn't there. One or two more in our precinct and we may have had a sweep as opposed to 4-1. Four surrogate forms were included who were all for Bernie. I watched my girl friends be signed and faxed last week.

Mark WaschkeNatalie McClendon was our PCO for 135

Mark WaschkeIt would be nice to know how many surrogate forms are confirmed missing. I'm sure there are others without anyone there to confirm.

Mark WaschkeEvery delegate counts although without more than 1 it wouldn't have changed anything in my precinct. It is a vote not counted though. That's not right.

Lori HeggemWe sent in 4 surrogate forms for my household and we didnt have anyone to check - that bothers me.

Jean M. LaytonWe had one missing but luckily the person came into the caucus

Amy PashovThanks Bob, I had one neighbor who I personally know sent hers in (I assisted in this) and it was not there. I called the hotline number right away (about 9:00 am)given to us from the bernie folks here in Bellingham and reported it. There was nothing they could do however. I then came home after the caucus and called two other families (three people total) who I had thought they also had said they had sent in surrogate forms, just to double check if this was wider spread in my area. I have not heard back from those folks as of yet. I had yet another neighbor that I also helped to print/scan her form and I was happy to see that it was there when i did the tally for my precinct: Precinct 137.
