Well, when you are winning states like Wyoming with 34 total delegates, and none of them are winner take all states, you are not going to make up much ground.


I didn't hear any Sanders supporters complaining on the day of the AZ/ID/UT primaries/caucuses, when Clinton got far more total votes but less delegates.
Truth be told, the Sanders supporters were a little busy dealing with the voter fraud and vote suppression of Sanders voters in Arizona to worry too much about other things. :coffee:

False.

The issues with the voting in Arizona impacted likely Clinton voters far more than Sanders voters. It is just that Sanders voters think the entire world is against them and accuse anything that happens that is not 100% in their favor of being some conspiracy theory. If it had rained that day, the Sanders voters would say that Hillary was manipulating the weather.


There was voter suppression in Arizona. No doubt about it. But since the entire state is GOP controlled, it was likely mostly aimed at Donald Trump.

What? You didn't see that the GOP induced the Democratic party to cheat in its own primary? Word is that Bush was involved too. Maybe Nixon. Certainly Kissenger. :ohno:

I think there are 18 delegates from Wyoming. But you're right about it being hard to make up ground when you beat your opponent 56/44 and you get 7 delegates and she gets 11. :coffee:

Kasich just opened a campaign HQ in Delaware. Did he get a two-week lease? :lol: The primary is on 4/26.

Most of DE's disaffected Jeb and Marco supporters have migrated to Kasich.

You expect me to do your google work for you?

Really easy to find. The effected areas in Maricopa County were primarily either retirement areas (Trump) or minority areas (Clinton).

any credible reporting has been saying that.

Now you are being ignorant. the State controls the number of polling locations, the distribution of ballots, and voter registration. All were issues. All are controlled by GOP elected officials.

The Democrats in office in Arizona DID protest these issues before the election. they were ignored.

You can try to be cute and snarky, but in the end, you are just being an ignorant ass :nod:

Not really sure what the confusion/ignorance is:

1) Secretary of State (Republican) controls voter registration
2) Legislature (Republican) controls funding for election
3) County Recorder(Republican) and County Board of Supervisors (4/5 Republican) control number of polling places.



As usual, I am correct, the rest of you are wrong. It sucks being the only correct one in a board full of ignorance. :nod: :nod:
