61. Actually, the shenanigans with affidavits is out of HRC's campaign...

...they have sent out affidavit forms, from President Clinton, with postage paid return envelopes, to many Dem voters.

I got one Monday, others reported received them a week earlier than me. Apparently they are sending them to women of a certain age... I'm 56. The State Dem Chair announced that they've received so many affidavits they are having trouble processing them... tomorrow is the deadline for them to be in the State Dem's hands.

Bernie volunteers (myself included) are very clear explaining the rules to use affidavit forms. we're straight arrows, just like Bernie.

We think HRC's teams is playing "winky-winky" with affidavit forms though...
we might just be being paranoid.

On the other hand, with all the reports of underhanded BS from so many states...

and witnessing attempted cheating first hand by her supporters at the '08 Caucuses...
I highly doubt it.

It is what it is. We just have to deal with it.
