It's Most Likely Going to Be a Contested Convention!

...This from Bernie Sanders directly.

The last time there was a liberal in the White House was January 20, 1969. Over 47 years ago. Nearly a half of a century. It's time for another one. It's time for Bernie.

Let's ensure it happens!

In Solidarity.

2. Yeah if Hillary isn't arrested before the convention it will most likely be contested.

4. She won't be arrested

Note: this doesn't mean I believe she's innocent.

5. +1

In America, innocent or guilty depending on your social standing. One country, two worlds apart.

7. Makes you wonder whether 1776 was worth it

As a Brit, I sometimes think the main difference between Britain and America is that our class system is blatant and in your face (see: Downton Abbey), whereas America likes to maintain the pretence that it is a classless society.

6. I predict there will be thousands of Bernie supporters

outside the convention. I'm hoping the superdelegates see the light.

8. K and R nt

9. Good luck trying to explain

to Clinton supporters that it is automatically a contested convention if she does not reach 2383.. Really difficult for them to get that

10. Contested Convention

Just updating my OP here to remind us all that according to Bernie as of just the other day, the only hurdle left to taking on Trump is defeating his opponent in the Democratic primary.

Neither candidate is going to arrive at the convention with the requisite number of delegates.

The media was salivating about a potential Republican contested convention for months, yet not a word about the ACUTAL contested convention that is slated to occur. At this point, it doesn't make you wonder at all. But rules are rules, facts are facts and this is happening.

To the White House!
