There is at least two types happening.

Which type are you concerned about?

Have you noticed that the winners ignore a hundred thousand people who say their vote was stolen. Why does that mean nothing to people. What makes them think their vote will count?

Fact: The donors who support the republicans also support Ms. Clinton and the third wayers. The donors hate the progressives with a white hot flame. The third wayers hate progressives with a blue hot flame. If the republicans did voter suppression; why is it hard to imagine the donors passing that information on to the third wayers.
How did so many of Ms. Clinton's voters know to us early voting? What is the out come of the voting done by provisional ballots? Even if they don't count, the breakdown of voting patterns can tell us quite a bit.

Fact: Every instance of voting irregularities favors a single candidate. Were there to be an investigation, that would be a clue to organization at some level, if not directly from the top, some where in the general vicinity of the top. Perhaps the common funding.

Calling what happened in Arizona FUCKING WRONG is not "mindless Hillary bashing." It's FUCKING WRONG, whether or not it's linked in any way, shape, or form to Hillary Clinton, and I've never suggested that it was so linked.

I have done absolutely NO "mindless Hillary bashing." If I want to "bash" Hillary, I've got a decades long list of actual words and actions to work from.

Generally, I don't talk about her at all. But if you want some MINDFUL Hillary bashing, I can accommodate you.

Just let me know.

Another post actually bashing Sanders' supporters, in which no evidence is provided for your "suggestion?"

And I haven't and won't take the time to research your posts. I don't think all Sanders supporters are Hillary bashers.

But I don't understand the body of your post. What "suggestion?" Seems I was pretty straightforward in what I wrote.
