2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: I just read why 64 Bernie NV delegates had their credentials stripped--and I shed a tear or two [View all]CoffeeCat
(24,411 posts)I participated in the Iowa Caucuses. You cannot participate unless you are a registered Democrat. I participated. I was a precinct captain, I gave a speech for Bernie and became a delegate that night.
So...as of Feb 1, I was a registered Democrat in the state of Iowa.
In early May, I was informed that I was officially a registered Republican. I went down to the Voter Registration office and the woman at the counter confirmed that I indeed a registered Republican.
I filled out paperwork and registered as a Democrat.
Crazy, isn't it?
I've never heard of election problems, snafus, mishaps and anomalies, registration switching, people not being able to vote, exit polling data not matching election results--on this scale before. The Republican exit polls match their election results. They also aren't having these outlandish problems that we're having--from state to state to state.
It's like a political pandemic has hit our Democratic Primaries. Rampant cheating and crazy stuff happening in so many states. Investigations in IL, NY, AZ and now there is evidence of Bernie losing votes in Delaware?
I've never seen or heard of anything like this in the history of our party.
