loved how hard the media had to spin that. oh Bernie is scrambling after Delegate disaster on the 22nd smh huh? Fuzzy math. This game isn't done until California and why or who stuck Cali in June and not Super Tuesday like in 2008 I have no idea. DWS? she could have fixed the 1/2 1/2 mess by moving Cali to where it should be. but I don't know the inner workings of where's and why's.

delegates.

Those people who stood in line until midnite were most likely voting for Bernie.
Think about this.... if you worked all day, then stopped to vote on the way home to vote for Hillary & the lines to vote were wrapped around the building and the AP already announced that she won, wouldn't you just say "YAY!" and go home?

The people that stayed were there INSPITE of her win.

for the presumed front runner. They said many people who had been voting for Democrats for years were suddenly designated as independents and not allowed to vote in the primary. Less than half the polling places available on 2012. Running out of ballots at some locations. What the hell?

we should be better than that.

But WOO HOO on the delegates!!!

I fear for NY though. I think that between it being a closed primary and the funny business going on with the voter rolls that Bernie will be losing out on a LOT of votes.
