AJAM’s David Shuster Exclusive: Hillary Clinton to be Interviewed by FBI Dir. Comey in Coming Days

by by Joe Concha | 8:02 pm, March 30th, 2016

http://www.mediaite.com/online/ajams-shuster-exclusive-hillary-clinton-to-be-interviewed-by-fbi-director-comey-in-mere-days/

I listen to Al Jazeera America on DTV and was FLOORED to hear this report by David Shuster...


"While Hillary Clinton fights for the Democratic presidential nomination, law enforcement officials tell Al Jazeera America the Federal Investigation into her personal email system while she was Secretary of State has reached a critical stage.

The FBI, led by Director James Comey, has now finished examining Clinton’s private emails and home server. And the sources add that Comey’s FBI team has been joined by the Justice Department prosecutors. Together, they are now examining the evidence, analyzing relevant laws, and attempting to arrange interviews with key figures in the investigation.

Those interviews, according to attorneys, will include former State Department aides Philippe Reines, Former Clinton Chief of Staff Cheryl Mills, and Clinton herself.

Soon after those interviews — in the next few days and weeks — officials expect Director Comey to make his recommendation to Attorney General Loretta Lynch about potential criminal charges."

-snip

Wednesday night, Shuster just reported on the 7:00 PM EST AJAM nightly newscast that the FBI has completed its examination of Democratic frontrunner Hillary Clinton‘s private email server after an investigation lasting nearly one year. The former Fox News and MSNBC reporter states investigators are nearing a verdict whether to seek criminal charges against the Former Secretary of State, Senator and First Lady. --Joe Concha...


Shuster finishes his report this way (emphasis mine): “Because there is now every sign the Clinton email investigation is quickly headed towards a conclusion, whether it’s her exoneration or indictment. In terms of timing, sources expect the conclusion to come in weeks, not months. And they add that Hillary Clinton’s interview with the FBI, which could come in days, could be crucial."

Provisional Ballot Numbers Released in Maricopa County, Arizona

per this video:



and I will spare you the agony of listening to it.....

Total Provisional Ballots Cast: 24,639

Total deemed non-eligible 20,008

Total deemed eligible 4,631

So brothers and sisters of Maricopa County, if you cast a provisional ballot your chances that it was actually counted are roughly 1 in 5.



The only person of integrity involved in this Board of Supervisor's hearing was Steve Gallardo. Toward the end of the hearing he said that in good conscience he will not vote to certify the Maricopa County election results to which some Republican replied it was 'too soon' to draw that conclusion. All that moran could repeat was the usual, 'Nothing to see here, move along, we have to make sure this doesn't happen again, move along.....

CNN coverage sucks again-can you help? They are showing the

freaking super delegates included in their vote totals and the chyron states Bernie has to win 75% of all the remaining pledged delegates to win the nomination.

I just let them have it with a brief comment sent to this link:

Can you take a minute to send a comment to them?

Who Wants More 'Do You Love Maps'?

Totally for informational purposes...for your thoughts and consideration. These illustrate the results so far in the Democratic primary/caucus elections.

I had to make the blue maps on photoshop because they don't exist-anywhere. The maps in green and yellow are from Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democratic_Party_presidential_primaries,_201



The typical MSM Map:



The Map that the MSM never shows:
Question Mark Over Arizona Due to Lawsuit Pending





Wiki Maps: Yellow is Clinton Green is Sanders

By County




By Electoral Votes:




By Pie Chart:

The Map The Main Stream Media Will Never Televise or Print

I love maps. I could not find an election map that accurately illustrates the results so far of the primary season so I made my own.
I wish I had the photoshop skills to combine text from a couple of Great OP's to go with the map but will insert the links from yesterday's threads by Attorney in Texas and Kristopher.
Here goes.....

Take a Deeeep Breath, Berners

Yes, I am new to DU but I have been around a long time and have been through campaigns since '72. Everything is proportional. She 'won' Iowa by .3 of a point yet if you look at an electoral map Iowa is hers. Similar problem with a slightly larger margin with her 'winning' Massachusetts. So what if she 'wins' Ohio? The delegates will be apportioned by percentages again. I await the results of Illinois and Missouri but if she 'wins' them too then so what? The worm will turn and the map does not favor her.

I will donate again tonight to Bernie and do everything I can to help nominate him because I believe he is the only person who can win in November and he is the candidate of my lifetime.

For all you Hillary supporters who blocked me on my 3rd post here because I did not understand the 'rules' about 'groups' you need not respond to this OP. Save your breath because you will need it in the future in the event you are defending yourselves for handing this to Trump.

Keep the Faith Berners. It ain't over, it's going to be a long haul and I'm in it for the Long Run.

Can Someone Please Explain How MIXED Primaries Work?

Both NC and Ohio are 'mixed' primaries. I interpret this to mean some precincts allow switch over votes and others do not. Can anyone identify which counties/precincts or whatever---have open voting and which ones are closed? Thank you!




Tue, Mar 15 Florida Closed
Tue, Mar 15 Illinois Open
Tue, Mar 15 Missouri Open
Tue, Mar 15 North Carolina Mixed
Tue, Mar 15 Northern Mariana Is. Caucus Closed
Tue, Mar 15 Ohio Mixed
