Petition: We Demand the DNC Rescind Clinton's Massachusetts Delegates Due to Breaking the Law

"In Massachusetts, it is illegal to campaign within 150ft of a polling place on election day. There is overwhelming evidence that Bill Clinton did just that on Super Tuesday across polling places across the state. Not only that, but there is also evidence of Clinton campaign signs being placed directly outside of these locations--again, this is illegal.

Rules have no meaning unless there are consequences.

We demand that the DNC declare INVALID Hillary Clinton's win in Massachusetts, and forfeit all delegates (including superdelegates) that she won from that state, and give them to Bernie Sanders.

If the DNC does not acknowledge this, and appropriately discipline the Clinton campaign for their under-handed and corrupt tactics, then voters will have to conclude that the Democratic Party is also corrupt, and then only god knows how you will win in November, when we withdraw our support. We the people believe in democracy, and we will not tolerate elections that are won by breaking the law."

Bill should be prosecuted for electioneering within a polling station.

Of course, he could be offered immunity if he's willing to testify that he was told to do so by someone ... higher up.

But that doesn't mean I get to specify the consequence.

Bill really should be held to account. And I don't assume we'll see that.
