1. Well with the ballots that were locked out

and the exit polls showing 52 to 48 perhaps it will change. It is odd how bad the exit polling has been in a few of these states with closed elections. I wonder if that is a sign of something.

But it's obvious to me! Hope they don't lock this thread or kick us off of DU!

I will say it over and over again. Entire BUILDINGS of people were not allowed to vote! How is that NOT rigged??

This woman has been following it all and she has been right from the beginning.

The south of NY, which is mostly establishment.
Bernie took 49 of 62 counties. My county, Ulster went for Bernie by almost 30% more than Clinton!

10. People vote. Tracts of land don't.

Heard it far too much, living in blue states where "a (geographically) tiny part of the state gets to decide it for all of us".

It's a solid win, but hardly an upset.

Main thing is to look at the demographics, and see what can be different moving fwd.

Is it going to come down to the West Coast having to clean up the rest of the country's mess? And will we be strong enough to do that?

11. So she managed to widen a narrowing gap by... 39?

Maybe less, as numbers finish coming in?

No wonder her supporters on DU are so mad about winning.
