Bernie's Independent problem in NH [View all] DCBob Dec 2015 OP

Thanks for your concern. Me, I'll just keep working on Bernie's campaign. highprincipleswork Dec 2015 #1

Good. I don't want those people voting in the Democratic primary anyways. Cali_Democrat Dec 2015 #2

I also read there were some Independents saying there were going to vote in Democratic party.. DCBob Dec 2015 #3

Independents pretty much break even TM99 Dec 2015 #8

Do you take pleasure in stating our nominee will not win the GE?? DCBob Dec 2015 #10

I take no pleasure. TM99 Dec 2015 #40

Bingo. Ross Perot voters who are Clinton haters R B Garr Dec 2015 #69

Recent polls shows me that Clinton is garnering 8% of the Independent's support ESKD Dec 2015 #33

The Independent's support? DFW Dec 2015 #38

That is not enough. n/t TM99 Dec 2015 #41

"Those people" are the largest group of NH voters. Warren Stupidity Dec 2015 #5

If they vote in the GOP primary, they're GOPers. Cali_Democrat Dec 2015 #19

Can't help you out if you insist on deliberate Warren Stupidity Dec 2015 #21

"Those people" are also the largest voting block in the country. Fawke Em Dec 2015 #47

Well it seems we should drive them away. Warren Stupidity Dec 2015 #58

"Those people"?? NorthCarolina Dec 2015 #6

If they vote in a GOP primary, I consider them to be GOP voters. Cali_Democrat Dec 2015 #17

Democrats can not win without the support of independents Bjorn Against Dec 2015 #9

True and Bernie cannot win the Dem primary without a big vote from Independents. DCBob Dec 2015 #12

Bernie has more support from Independents than Hillary Bjorn Against Dec 2015 #14

True, but it remains to be seen how many switch. DCBob Dec 2015 #15

I predict it's fewer than you predict. HooptieWagon Dec 2015 #16

Yes, but Christie is the wild card. He passes himself off as moderate and is rising in the polls riversedge Dec 2015 #62

Valid point.. partially. DCBob Dec 2015 #64

The poll is shit and Sanders would win the primary Warren Stupidity Dec 2015 #4

PPP is one of the most respected polling operations in the country. DCBob Dec 2015 #7

Not this election cycle. Fawke Em Dec 2015 #48

ha ha. riversedge Dec 2015 #63

LOL. bernie couldn't win the primary if he was the only one running. He is THAT BAD! misterhighwasted Dec 2015 #18

You must have really big hands. bobbobbins01 Dec 2015 #34

No-one likes Bernie.. Kentonio Dec 2015 #43

Sorta like "Everybody Hates Hillary". That ridiculous OP, remember? Bet y'all rec'd that one misterhighwasted Dec 2015 #57

What a crock, especially that smear about PP. This place should be above that kind of dirt. Kentonio Dec 2015 #60

Its bernies dirt, not mine. He said it, not me. misterhighwasted Dec 2015 #61

He's fought for equality for his entire career. Kentonio Dec 2015 #65

No he did not fight for women's equality his entire career misterhighwasted Dec 2015 #66

Apparently NOT. But his mgr did write up a nice pacifying press release misterhighwasted Dec 2015 #67

You might want to think twice Kentonio Dec 2015 #68

I believe there are no real independents. RandySF Dec 2015 #11

Probably but.. DCBob Dec 2015 #13

PPP polled both primaries jfern Dec 2015 #20

Registered Republicans or Democrats cant switch DCBob Dec 2015 #22

Anyone can switch. You chose the ballot that you want to vote in. NH has same-day registration. bunnies Dec 2015 #24

Do you have link to that information? DCBob Dec 2015 #27

I live here. In NH. bunnies Dec 2015 #32

You are mistaken. DCBob Dec 2015 #36

NH has a semi-closed primary. DCBob Dec 2015 #46

I suppose the poll workers are doing it wrong then. bunnies Dec 2015 #55

I think you are referring to unregistered voters. DCBob Dec 2015 #56

I'm talking about independents jfern Dec 2015 #26

Unaffiliated are independents. DCBob Dec 2015 #29

DCBob doesnt know how voting in NH works. I can choose a R or a D primary ballot on voting day... bunnies Dec 2015 #25

Please provide proof. DCBob Dec 2015 #31

Apparently you are the one who doesn't know.. DCBob Dec 2015 #39

You do realize most people don't register with a party unless they have to. Fawke Em Dec 2015 #50

NH is semi-closed primary. DCBob Dec 2015 #53

Let's go straight to the NH Sec. of State, shall we? kristopher Dec 2015 #54

Your last statement is not correct. DCBob Dec 2015 #59

I live in NH. Save your concern. bunnies Dec 2015 #23

Bwahahahaha... 99Forever Dec 2015 #28

My pleasure. DCBob Dec 2015 #30

Thanks MFrohike Dec 2015 #35

Not concerned.. just stating an issue. DCBob Dec 2015 #37

I see this mentioned often: "CONCERN-trolling" and "thanks-for-your-CONCERN" ... NurseJackie Dec 2015 #42

Yeah, kind of lazy catch-all retort when a poster has nothing intelligent to say. DCBob Dec 2015 #44

I agree MFrohike Dec 2015 #70

Just a thought MFrohike Dec 2015 #72

Thank you for your concern. NurseJackie Dec 2015 #73

Yeah, you're doing it wrong MFrohike Dec 2015 #74

LOL NurseJackie Dec 2015 #75

That's how they roll... DemocratSinceBirth Dec 2015 #49

If all the hardcore Hillary-haters decide to take-their-leave, this web site will ... NurseJackie Dec 2015 #51

I can't wait until she secures the nomination. DemocratSinceBirth Dec 2015 #52
