Kentucky recanvass confirms Clinton as winner

[L.A.C.]

49. Jaxon Ravens, the chair of the WA state Democratic party, said he would not vote in the primary

This was reported by the Seattle Times. Clearly people in the know did not bother to vote. WA Democrats have argued that it is an approximately $11.5 million waste of taxpayer money since the party does not use the results. Additionally, the ballots required that you officially declare a party allegiance. According to King5 this is only the 5th time in state history that that has been required. Meaning that no one who had not already been represented in the caucus (i.e. independents and republicans wishing to switch over) were represented in the Democrat primary results unless they wished to lie and claim they are Democrats. The bottom line is that Democrats had already voted for Bernie and this primary was meaningless for them. I personally know many Bernie supporters who chose not to vote in the primaries because they knew that it did not matter. Bernie already won by over 40 points and the primary did nothing to change or diminish that.
