Related: About this forumWhat if Bernie Had Lost Delegates in NV?
GDP would be fire and brimstone right now.
For the record, I don't think there's foul play by either side here, it's simply another example of why caucuses suck. But I certian that if this situation were reversed, DU would burn to the ground.

(1,947 posts)the nasty tricks by team Hillary that were overlooked? Don't need to poke that hornet's nest? Kind of like Cook County Illinois.

(1,947 posts)is Hillary's strength, so yes I do care, but the fact of the matter is I am sure she approves, just happened to backfire on her, unlike in Cook County Illinois. I have read many posts here supporting voter suppression by Hillary supporter's. Also how Bernie supporters aren't real democrats. So I say to you.. not really, do you care that bill goes to polling places with his Bullhorn? Own it, she is a great conservative candidate.

(9,610 posts)WA stage 2 caucus happens. Sanders could very easily have that happen here. I hope not, but it is possible.

In any case, it won't really affect your support for Bernie.

I'm not saying there is foul play afoot but this seems to be a bigger problem than the incompetance of the Democratic Party in MI, AZ and IA.....
Good new is this did very little as far as delegate math but does make the Sander's people look hypocritical for dismissing the actual voter who voted overwhelmingly for Clinton in the 02/20 caucus.

(885 posts)Registration was sufficient to have their vote counted. That's all the rules called for. They didn't bother to register.

(9,086 posts)There are problems with primaries and voting machines all the time. We don't take that as an example of why voting can't work. We say it is an example of something to be fixed. Caucuses can work if that's what people want.

The Sanders people would have screamed bloody murder.
But, of course, when it did happen they some how convinced themselves that it was a Clinton scandal and she had wronged him.

(1,947 posts)They were awful quick to drop their poutrage. There is some reason sanders I suing. I'm sure DWS earned it.

(11,996 posts)Other then repetitive silly posts about supposed "lies", Susan Sarandon, "unreleased tax returns", defending her lobbyist-connection corruption, and other trivial what-not - I tend to agree.

(3,473 posts)They would say it was tearing the Democratic Party apart and that it would show that Secretary Clinton would go to any lengths to win.

(718 posts)Basically I expect some human error in the process. But if the shoe were on the other foot I think there would be hundreds of angry, raging posts screaming about election theft and directly accusing the candidate.

(1,235 posts)if the results were the opposite and Bernie lost delegates because they failed to show up, there would be no calls from Hillary supporters to do a damn thing about it, they'd just say 'rules are the rules'.
ASAIK, delegate rules can be changed right up to, and during the convention, so here's a thought, let's all get together and give back Hillary her 3 or 4 delegates in NV and do away with super delegates ... sounds fair to me.

We aren't the villains here.
And there was just as much dodginess in the original caucus result as there was yesterday.
