If they didn't think Bernie supporters voted, they wouldn't work so hard to keep them from voting.

State after state crap has happened to try to prevent Bernie supporters from voting. So cut out the b.s.

Does Joan Walsh have a modicum of integrity left? Her article doesn't have a ring of truth to it. Reading that claptrap your b.s. detector should go into overdrive.

As a woman I am simply DISGUSTED by how the female Clinton supporters have acted. We can no longer claim that women would do better then men at governing (just look at DWS). They are just as corrupt and deceitful as any male politician, and more so than some.

8. That is exactly what I was yelling at my television last time I heard her say it.

She says it almost daily, like if she repeats it often enough, she will believe her own lie.

4. To be fair, the list of donors is public.

There could be fraud involved. It could be that voters are mistaken about their status. It could be e-Polling book trouble.

My college logic teacher would probably agree that that's the way to start thinking about it. But that was a logic class, so of course he'd want it approached logically.

5. Most likely they registered as Independens at some point, or never registered in first place.

But it's not some conspiracy against Sanders.

6. That would be one.

Another would be that they re-registered as a Dem too late for it to be in effect for the Primary.

It's the reports of changed party when the voter claims they've been registered only as a Dem for years you'll want to pay attention to. And even there, the voter having moved could be the culprit...ie: voter didn't know the routine.

But I can tell you I have as much faith in the e-Polling equipment as I do the voting equipment. The latter has proven to be unreliable, easily manipulated, and easy to make a plain 'ol true to life honest mistake with.

Things to think about.
