2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumHere's a prediction:
eight years from now, people here will be complaining that the Iowa Caucus vote is unrepresentative of the Democratic electorate, and that it's rules are arcane and subject to fraud....
...and in the 8 years before that, they'll have done nothing to try and change the Primary process.

(30,481 posts)I have many posts talking about the flaws in the system. One group here took issue with me discussing the serious flaws in the system. Interestingly enough, they weren't Clinton supporters.
It is my belief at this point Clinton needs to get some people involved in Iowa. Some of the verbiage coming out of the Sanders campaign is sounding like '04. It's sad what they are doing.

So personally I have worked for and helped make changes in the last 8 years in my own State. Iowa and Iowa's reputation are in the hands of Iowans.
What advances have you made in NY in terms of voter access?

(45,319 posts)Did you assert that people do not seek to improve our elections systems? Yes you did. I corrected that assumption and then asked you what you have done to make elections better in NY over the last 8 years.
You seem to be complaining about other Democrats, characterizing them actually. When asked to actually discuss, you do not seem able to do so.
