All voting is in Maricopa is controlled by the GOP

They control the County voting. They control the Secretary of State.

Both Sanders and Clinton voters are being affected by the heavy turnout and incompetent poll workers


Put down the tinfoil and unite to fight the common enemy - the GOP

this in the primary. They should have saved it for the general. Either one of our candidates will be able to beat their candidate in the general.

We better get a plan together for the General so that what is happening in the Primaries does not happen again in the General. In addition, they have the names of the people who came out in the Primaries so they may screw with even more voters prior to the General.

It is difficult to find enough poll workers to work elections. Yes there are some assholes that try to subvert elections. Try getting enough to work the long hours. 12 to 14 hours straight. And there are some that are not competent.

But issues I am hearing seem to be from untrained workers

Heck - they were trying to recruit people from the line

the chicanery is aimed at trump voters, as he really is turning out large numbers of disaffected voters.
