Our first caucus...

In Utah, if you vote Democratic at the Presidential election your vote won't count because of the stupid U.S. electoral system based on “grand electors” that will only take into consideration what the (conservative) majority of our theocratic state will chose.

So, when we could pick between primary candidates, this was the only time our vote did count, so we couldn't miss this and last night we join 2,000 people who joined in at the local Democratic caucus and cast our vote.
The crowd was huge, the tension palpable and this morning we learned that 67% of Park City voters picked Bernie Sanders over Hillary Clinton. We were elated and will do it again, because we might be gone when this stupid electoral system is finally changed...
