Although there may be other culprits, it sounds likely she broke the law and disenfranchised voters. Shrike47 Apr 2016 #3

Democratic elections in Brooklyn (and responsible for the Democratic voter rolls where the 126K voters were purged) remains untouched.

I support Senator Sanders and agree with those Democratic leaders, like VP Biden, who say we need an alternative all the way to the election and perhaps even beyond.

I am not discouraged by Mrs. Clinton’s win in NY. In fact, the voter suppression going on at the polls in many states is so disgraceful it did encourage me to make another donation to Senator Sanders’ campaign.

What’s going on in the CBC (DNC,DSC) as it relates to Donna Edwards? Are Clinton supporters trying to influence the outcome of this election? Is she being punished for taking Progressive positions and supporting Senator Sanders’ campaign? I will donate to Rep. Edwards’ campaign even though I do not live in Maryland.

I do not consider the results legitimate. Will be voting accordingly.
And that is just one reason why I cannot support Hillary. Drop in the bucket, really.

I'm sure she did what she was told and now she is the easiest to serve up on the platter. Meanwhile, the team who accomplished this will claim it's too late to do anything about it. And also claim Sanders should drop out because "there's no way he can win". Well he sure can't win if his voters are being sabotaged and/or suppressed in every single state.
