Is there a link to an official report on the voting in Massachusetts by precinct

Most states post official election return result almost immediately, but I can't find anything on the official Massachusetts website for the 2016 primary results.

keep in mind, that while that is important, it's not the only factor. It's the arrogance. It's the purposeful manipulation that we have seen in the closest states. It's keeping people from voting. It's much more than the votes he could have cost Bernie at the four? stops he made.

It's the obvious willingness to fuck with an election.

But I still would be interested in knowing what impact it may have had on the voting results.

Doesn't seem like an unreasonable thing to want to know, particularly since there are a lot of threads assuming various motives.

(My view is that his motive was probably to feed his insatiable ego by going to a precinct where there were going to be a lot of fans and basking in the glory. I can imagine that sharing the stage with his wife is getting to him).

I would like to know too. I read that it was areas that were strong Bernie areas. If he wanted to roll I'm fandom, he would have gone to strong Hillary areas. One duer told me that Hillary pulled this stunt in O8 too but they were unable to find anything on it now.

If he actually stopped anyone from voting, it's far more likely that he prevented Clinton voters from getting in!
