Statement From A.G. Schneiderman On Voting Issues During New York’s Primary Election

NEW YORK—Attorney General Eric T. Schneiderman today issued the following statement on reported issues with voting during yesterday’s primary election:

"Yesterday, New Yorkers turned out in impressively high numbers to vote for the nominees in their respective parties. By most accounts, voters cast their ballots smoothly and successfully. However, I am deeply troubled by the volume and consistency of voting irregularities, both in public reports and direct complaints to my office's voter hotline, which received more than one thousand complaints in the course of the day yesterday. That's why today, we have opened an investigation into alleged improprieties in yesterday's voting by the New York City Board of Elections. If necessary, we will initiate inquiries in additional areas of the State where voting irregularities appeared unusually high. Voting is the cornerstone of our democracy, and if any New Yorker was illegally prevented from voting, I will do everything in my power to make their vote count and ensure that it never happens again."

4. That was amazing

I still don't know how she keeps on knowing exactly which voters are going to vote for Bernie, since every single voter who has been unable to vote for whatever reason, seems to always be those would were going to vote for Bernie!

I know this for a fact because I heard it right here on DU from the most reliable Bernie bros in the whole country.

6. Samething happened in Arizona

Hillary, the mindreader.

14. You missed the change in talking points re: Arizona.

She and the DNC joined the lawsuit with Bernie and the state party.

Your inability to understand how management and executives work is also vastly amusing. No one with more than half a brain believes Hillary personally messed with people's right to vote; what sensible people understand is that as "boss" of her little empire, she tells her minions to do things, and then they come up with "creative/possibly borderline criminal" ways to make her happy. It's part of why people who pay attention to this stuff realize she inspires horrific behavior in her followers, and don't want her in a place to do do more damage.

15. So the GOP in Arizona work for her?

12. Assume that 126,000 Bernie supporters were targeted with lazer accuracy...

Go total paranoid conspiracy theory, give him another 126,000 votes and he still loses by 8.5%....

[beastie boy]

5. And he Hillary conspiracy theories and innuendo begin in 3... 2... 1...

Oh damn, I am late to the party again!

[Ed Suspicious]

9. Ignore the man behind the curtain! It is I, the great and powerful Oz!

13. Regardless of the cause, or who does or doesn't benefit if it's fixed,

it needs to be investigated and anyone who should have been able to vote but couldn't should have their vote counted.
