They will grab any opportunity to commit election fraud. The prize is the presidency, and they will be highly motivated no matter who we nominate.

You better believe it and be ready. Have the money it takes to fight and expose it. Lets see how many of you will cry help from the establishment then. Bookmark this.

They won't have to against Hillary because they will beat her straight up. With Sanders they would have to cheat to win.

The one way to guard against fraud is to win with such a large margin that it can't be stolen.

6 of 7 polls show it and his net favorabilty is higher than any other candidate while Hillary's is within the MOE with Trump's for being the lowest.


Bernie is the better bet in the GE.

He gets bigger crowds, be gets more people volunteering, he gets more people donating.

If you want to win the GE, back Bernie.

those fear tactics are only effective against conservatives. True liberals don't seem to buy it.

I am not trying to scare you. I'm being real, I've seen it. If you really believe it's happening now just wait.

Is it enough to swing an election? Not sure.



Did Obama win because of election fraud in 2008 or 2012, or were there no cases of fraud that year?

What about when Bernie won his Senate seat? Had to be election fraud, maybe the reason why he won.
What about when Hillary won her Senate seat? Had to be election fraud, maybe the reason why she won.

It always seems like folks cry fraud when their candidate loses. What about when they win?

Shows your bias. Local elections are much different. Bernie is no Obama. He won't pull the numbers needed to beat the fraud. Bookmark this.
