I just read why 64 Bernie NV delegates had their credentials stripped--and I shed a tear or two

176. I was a registered Dem in Feb 1, our Iowa Caucus

and also, I had to have been a registered Dem, at our County Convention, which was March 10.

At the County Convention, the Hillary people challenged the credentials of every Bernie delegate there. There were more than 500 Bernie delegates and we all had to have our credentials verified/checked in order to be counted. The process took a couple of hours at least. Bernie was ahead at the Polk County Convention, at the first count. Hillary had originally win this county, so as you can imagine, there was a great deal of consternation in Hillary's side.

It's likely that if Bernie had remained in the lead that the entire state of Iowa may have flipped for Bernie. They checked each of us individually. I'm assuming they checked party affiliation. But I can't say for certain. They were looking for any reason to disqualify any Bernie delegate. (All Bernie delegates checked out as valid, by the way. All credentials were in order).

Because the Hillary people checked my credentials, I'm assuming that I was a registered Dem on March 10, as well.

So, the registration had to have been switched sometime between March 10 and around April 29--when I was informed by the Sanders staffer that I was a registered Republican.

And I have not been to the Department of Motor vehicles during the past year.

I am going to go down to the voter registration office (where I switched back from R to D recently) and see if I can find out more information about timing and why and how this could have happened.
