also voted/caucused then Bernie would have it in the bag. People!

We've also got some issues with actual voting.........long lines, insufficient ballots, lack of enthusiasm, minimal efforts to GOTV during mid-term elections, etc.
It's a turnoff, THEY know it and it is by design.
The DNC has become a useless money bag grabber. We've had all sorts of complaints since '07/'08 and not one thing has been done to fix the problems.
It is ALL BY DESIGN.
I used to wonder how Democrats could even consider becoming an Independent.......I know why.

(2,968 posts)California has not only early voting but absentee ballot
it's been really easy. It used to be I would have to hunt
down the polling place since it changed every year. In the mountains
there are a lot of little roads. That was the days before Internet etc.
Brown has talked about making it easier. I'm not sure if it went through.
I think when you get a CDL you are registered to vote (depending on age etc.)
I dragged a friend to Voters Registrar's office to get her to register. She never voted
and she was in her 50s! Then when the ballot came in the mail she didn't vote! The next
time an election day came around I sat down with her and went over the ballot. She then
said that's it? She has moved to another county and so far she hasn't changed her address!
She's more interested in QVC. And if the wrong person gets into office it could affect her!
