Can Bernie Sanders Survive "Flip and Strip" Selection Tactics?

[NorthCarolina]

Bernie Sanders has shown in Iowa that he's a viable candidate " and more. Considering Bernie was down 50 points just a while ago, Iowa has sent a clear signal that this campaign must be taken seriously.

But the terrain will quickly shift. Bernie will obviously do well in New Hampshire. Then the race will move to southern and bigger states, where Hillary may have an edge.

But we're not talking about demographics. The real terrain shift that concerns us is from a caucus state to ones where the votes are counted on electronic voting machines.

The key strategy in question is "strip and flip," i.e., the stripping of electronic registration lists, and then the flipping of the vote count on machines that have no reliable system of verification.

We've already had some likely shenanigans right out of the gate in Iowa, now I read about this.

The deck is certainly stacked against the voters.

1. The results can be anything the Oligarchs want them to be

Because of the Hanging chads in 2000 and the Ohio flip in 2004 and the Iowa Circus in 2016 can we have any faith at all in the corrupt system? What can be done to ensure the will of the people is honored?

3. So you claim the the Voting Machines rigged by the Republicans can now be rigged by the Democrats

Did they buy out the rights?

4. You tell me, did they?

Or is it just that the Corporate Democrats and the GOP both really play for the same team in a "good cop bad cop" sort of kabuki theater?

6. I subscribe to the "voting machines aren't being rigged" philosophy...

...informed by the fact that no candidate, elected official, Party Leader or Campaign Manager (especially the folks in Ohio) who've lost a race claim it was because the machines were rigged. I tend to find their perspective more authoritative than internet bloggers.

5. Nope. He's dooooomed! Flip and strip will be the end of him!

7. How will you react when Bernie wins NH? Will you claim Tad Devine rigged the machines?
