I read something the other day that his campaign is admiringly stating it's likely to be his most difficult campaign ever, he may not even survive the primary.

My brother is convinced she'll take Utah. He lives there and says most of the Republican mormons don't like the type of nastiness and vulgarity that Trump's bringing to the race.

9. Yeah... right. Most here don't even believe she legitimately won the primary.

If she is the Dem Nominee she will LOSE AZ... and it won't be pretty.

Az voted for her overwhelmingly! Independents could have switched affiliation to vote in the dem primary, they chose not to do that.

Arizona Republicans are firmly in control of that system and have been for years! How in the world can you possible insinuate that Hillary had anything to do with it? Yes, the state closed down many polling locations, that sucked for everyone, people still got to vote!

deny that there was Fraud/ Suppression? Because that is an acknowledged fact. That would make it seem like you were attempting to ... oh, I don't know...'willfuly overlook/justify' it.

There was a legitimate winner, she beat Sander's 57.6 to 39.9, in fact that was more like an embarrassment to your guy. Hillary 236,000 compared to Sander's 163,000, not even close. Your claims of fraud and suppression are typical speak for why Sander's lost. It's a grand theory considering it's one of the most conservative states in the nation, with only republicans elected statewide for some time.

She won, Sander's did not and attempting to call her win illegitimate because of voting issues is disingenuous. She won by 73,000 votes, no matter which way you dice it.

Firebrand out!
