Voters across 12 states are hitting the polls today in a string of primaries known as Super Tuesday.
New York is not one of the states voting, but that hasn't prevented New Yorkers from voicing their opinions — many of them biting, despairing and downright hilarious — on Twitter:
With Donald Trump poised to win in several states today, some are choosing optimism.
I, for one, welcome our new crappy-haired, orange-faced, stubby-fingered overlord. #SuperTuesday

Others find hope in different places...
It's already a Super Tuesday because I had hash browns for breakfast and I believe Donald Trump is going to hell.

...or perhaps just in the bottle.
My #SuperTuesday drinking game: a bottle for every state Trump wins. Hopefully I'll pass out and wake up in time for the next election cycle

Actually, drinking seems to be a pretty common, nonpartisan response among New Yorkers.
I invented a Super Tuesday drinking game: Consider the future of the country and drink.

In general, New Yorkers hope that voters will do their states proud...
Happy Super Tuesday, everyone. Let's try to not embarrass ourselves. pic.twitter.com/5kjcP8dghm

...lest they have to stay in New York indefinitely...
It's Super Tuesday, or the day I learn if I want to ever go back to my home state.

...or move to Canada.
Keeping an eye on Super Tuesday to know if I need to start working on my visa application to Canada.

Instead of lamenting presidential contenders, some offer advice...
If you live in a #SuperTuesday state, please vote. But before you do, ask yourself who the KKK would vote for. And then don't do that.

...while others stick to the bigger questions...
What kind of #SuperTuesday has no new Beyoncé albums?
— Jonathan Gardner (@JonnyGards) March 1, 2016
...including the biggest question of them all: how is anything "super" without our involvement?
How can Super Tuesday be super if New York isn't involved? #whatnyersthink
