What happened in NY with the widespread voter disenfranchisement?

De Blasio and the Comptroller, as well as the Attorney General have all endorsed Hillary Clinton.

IMO, we have a(nother) likely case of election fraud.

Wish the DoJ would step in NYC as well as AZ and CA if it's happening there.

As is, the states have free reign to disenfranchise anyone they want - in droves - because they know nothing can be done.

When Bernie loses New York, his supporters will scream fraud.

Same with Pennsylvania and same with Maryland.

There was definitely fraud and voter suppression in some states. Additionally, the media has been counting superdelegates for Hillary and Google rigged its search results to include superdelegates in the total count without even giving a breakdown for many months. Only recently have they started giving the details.

At least in IA, MA, AZ and NY. It is Hillary's folks who are part of the establishment. So blame for any fraud lies at their doorstep. This should not surprise anyone.

Wouldn't we become the laughing stock of the world? The Democratic Party is subverting democratic processes in state after state. They make it seem like it is fairer even in countries like Russia and Indonesia. Sad. How do we ever advice others about democracy without being labeled as hypocrites when we ourselves do not follow the rules of a democracy?
