I think these “problems” are intentional. We have been voting for over a century, there is absolutely no reason for us to have problems in doing this at this point. Criminal activity is the reason we still have these issues.
I have no doubt that you’er right.
Especially when some of the issues are direct human involvement… like closing polling stations, getting rid of early hours or same day registration.
That has nothing to do with exit polls.
So, I’m not sure what point you were trying to make with that.
The point was that exit polls showed Sanders winning but the actual count showed Hillary winning.
In other words, you can’t explicitly trust exit polls.
I think it may also influence west coast voters. An example would be the voter who feels his candidate might have it wrapped up by the east coast exit polls and therefore might not feel so inclined to even vote.
People who go that way are also not bothering to vote for the other positions that are up. Election day is not just about the president. And the other positions have a greater, more direct effect on the average person.
I am not sure how this affects the delegate roulette the party is playing. I am surprised (pleasantly so) that Gov. Kasich did not fare better in the northeast states.
In my opinion, Kasich would be the most competitive candidate for the Democratic nominee. Maybe some of his ideas are far right wing crazy just like the other GOP candidates. But what is important is that his persona is not. He comes across as an even-tempered likeable guy, which he may be once we ignore politics.
Hillary Clinton is not my first choice for the nomination. But as of tonight, the writing is on the wall for Sen. Sanders.
Bernie-or-Bust folks, please remember Florida 2000. We cannot let that happen again. Hold your noses if you must, but it is imperative that we support the Democratic nominee in November, no matter who it is.
No matter what you might think about HRC, remember the Supreme Court where the next President could make at least two selections. I think even her worst progressive critics would agree that a SCOTUS staffed with Clinton appointees is infinitely preferable to a SCOTUS with 2-3 new justices nominated by Ted Cruz or Donald Trump.
Presidents come and go. Citizens United will last for decades.
You’re right, at least according to months of polls, Kasich would be the hardest for Dems to beat… or rather, a challenge for Bernie while Hillary would likely lose against him.
And the thing is…. going by their records, Hillary isn’t much of a Democrat, whereas Bernie exemplifies what I always thought the party stood for.
And if I don’t vote for Hillary, it’s not because I’m mad Bernie didn’t win and it’s not because I don’t like her… it’s because I don’t trust her and feel like she would be bad for the country.
I know it’s important to get our government as Blue as possible, but when so many Blue members are shades of purple, it’s hard to want to vote for any of them.
Bring on the true blue Berniecrats and I’m all in.
Otherwise, I’m not sure my soul would forgive me for voting for Hillary.
There’s a good better chance I’d write in Bernie or vote for Jill Stein instead.
Basically, our party will never change for the better when we hold our noses to vote for who they foist upon us.
You should NEVER have to hold your nose when voting.
It’s kind of the point of individual votes.
With a Republican President nominating court justices, our country will never change for the better. To paraphrase my earlier comment, Presidents are around for a maximum of 8 years. A Supreme Court justice will influence policy for 2-3 decades.
If Hillary is the Democratic nominee, writing in Bernie or Jill Stein makes it more likely that Republican court appointees will define American policy for the next 20-30 years. Please keep that in mind when you get your ballot in November.
Us old farts can remember when every Dems platform looked like Bernie’s. It’s sad how things have changed to where standard fare from 40 years ago is considered communist today.
agreed, we absolutely, positively, cannot have a republican controlled government. it will take generations to repair the damage they will inflict on the citizens of this country.
I know Bernie said HRC will have to win over his supporters but I believe he’s going to make the case for them. He knows the stakes too. I hope HRC takes advantage of his revolution and accommodates some of his platform. A big Dem sweep, pushed by Berniecrats, will help her administration immensely.
Madam President is no longer limited to the presiding officer of the U.S. Senate. The glass ceiling just broke! HRC 2,141 delegates needs 242 to win vs BS 1,062.

It’s hilarious that Maryland is called for Hillary before a single precinct has reported results.
She may well take it, but it seems like that may be jumping the gun by just a tiny bit, lol.

I’m not saying it isn’t, I’m just saying that it’s jumping the gun to call a race before even 1% of the results are in.
Plus, if you go by exit polls, Bernie should be in the lead with pledged delegates.
