Was this deliberate?

Clinton using dirty tactics to trick Washington voters
Hillary Clinton has been caught misinforming Washington caucus-goers who support Bernie Sanders, so they cannot show up to caucus for him.

If this isn't a mistake then her campaign needs to answer for it IMHO.
And also...where are those transcripts OBTW?

1. Ratfucking is never a mistake. n/t

[yourpaljoey]

2. Did someone say dirty tricks?

7. Yes, who stole whose database? Good thing Sanders campaign filed the lawsuit before the deadline

I hate rat-fucking, I especially hate it when it's Blue on Blue.

That campaign is doing everything it can to alienate Sanders's supporters, who the party, if not HRC, needs in Nov

3. She should send that letter to the Sanders campaign.

Also, she pulled this stunt in 2008 in NC. A guy named Podesta orchestrated it and received a reprimand from the NC attorney general. Wonder where this Podesta guy is now.

I am reserving judgement on whether this is a real scandal or not. Too much speculation around these parts lately.

4. I hear ya that's why I asked

[arcane1]

5. "John David Podesta ... is the Chairman of the 2016 Hillary Clinton presidential campaign"

That one?

[JonLeibowitz]

14. Yep:

8. Hey, why not do it again?

If all you get is a "reprimand." The end justifies the cheating and lying and covering up.

6. Here is that letter (if the link works)

...Denise Gibbs, a Washington resident who supports Bernie Sanders, posted on Facebook that she had received a letter from Hillary Clinton, informing her where and when she can caucus.

However, that information was inaccurate. The caucus location on the letter was not her caucus location. The letter also stated to arrive just 30 minutes, which led Denise to speculate that, “she wants me to do that, so I would not have enough time to get to my correct caucus location before the doors closed.

9. Why does she feel a need to do this kind of crap?

She's been running for president since the 90's, was given at least a 20 mile headstart in the marathon known as the primary season, and I've read that she is the most admired woman in the country or was that the world? Why the continued dirty tricks?

11. As for getting there before the doors close

We don't close the doors in Washington. The vote should be counted for anyone who gets there before the second tally. The second tally could be at any time depending on how quickly the meeting progresses for your precinct. By all means try to get there early to save everyone the trouble of long lines, but even if you find yourself late, go anyway. And tell your friends, in case they got the same letter and react the intended way.

12. I keep hearing from people that "oh I don't have to show up on Saturday"

"I got a letter to sign and mail back" and variations on the same

Bull.shit.

Please read, from the official Washington Democratic Caucus 2016 website (emphasis mine however):

What if I can't make it to my precinct caucus at 10:00am on March 26th -- can I still vote?
You must be present at your caucus location at 10:00am on March 26th and submit a sign-in form in order for your vote to be counted. We recommend arriving at your caucus 30 minutes early. The deadline to submit a Surrogate Affidavit Vote (in cases of illness, disability, work schedule, religious observance, or military service) was March 18th at 5:00pm, and has already passed.

13. This kind of bull**** is the reason I will not be voting for Clinton

I haven't decided what I will do, but her campaign has lost this unaffiliated voter in a swing state.
