6. This is blatant spin, spin, spin.. the article's main star Roberto Prats contradicts himself.

Prats says,

"The claim that the Democratic Party is delaying the certification of the Sanders' poll workers is preposterous. The first complete set of pollworkers for tomorrow's primary we have certified were all from the Sander's Campaign."

then he says,

"I have been told that the Sanders campaign submitted their prison pollworker list at 6:10 pm on the evening prior to inmate voting and began complaining early in the following morning that the Board had not completed their pollworker's certification. But in the end, despite the late submittal, the Sanders campaign had representatives at the prison voting places."

So if Sander's campaign had the "first complete set of pollworkers" that would mean Hillary was late too then, right? So why were Hillary pollworkers already inside if Hillary was not the first?

Roberto Prats, Puerto Rico Democratic Party president. More funny stuff on THEIR watch, not Bernies. Bernie does not run the elections over there, Prats does.
