Sanders campaign accused of stealing two ballot boxes in PR prisons

[BainsBane]

This is in the context of their complaints of the Democratic Party rigging the election in prisons for Hillary. The facts show something very different.

"The claim that the Democratic Party is delaying the certification of the Sanders' poll workers is preposterous. The first complete set of pollworkers for tomorrow's primary we have certified were all from the Sanders Campaign."

Prats also said certifying poll workers is out of the hands of the party and that the Sanders campaign did not allow much time before it began accusing the party of fraud.

"Inmate voting is handled not by the Democratic Party but by the Commonwealth's Absentee and Advance Vote Administrative Board," Prats said. "I have been told that the Sanders campaign submitted their prison pollworker list at 6:10 pm on the evening prior to inmate voting and began complaining early in the following morning that the Board had not completed their pollworker's certification. But in the end, despite the late submittal, the Sanders campaign had representatives at the prison voting places."

He also accused the Sanders campaign of stealing two boxes of ballots that had been cast by prisoners before delivering them to an election office.

I knew Clinton would win big when Sanders people started complaining about fraud in PR even before the election. That's what they do when they know they will lose. Their polling obviously showed them tanking.

1. When the Hillary campaign is accused of one thing after another, it's insane conspiracy theories.

When the Sanders campaign is accuse of something, it's gospel.

[BainsBane]

8. This is from representatives in Puerto Rico, not the Clinton campaign

[merrily]

13. Let's see exactly what my post said about the source of the complaints against either campaign:

When the Hillary campaign is accused of one thing after another, it's insane conspiracy theories.

When the Sanders campaign is accuse of something, it's gospel.

Oh, yeah. Absolutely nothing. So the point of your reply to me escapes me.

Very few of the complaints about election fraud against Hillary originated with the Sanders campaign and even less from party officials. They came in the first instance from voters and caucus workers.

27. Don't know why, but a song occurs to me...

And you may ask yourself
What is that beautiful house?
And you may ask yourself
Where does that highway go to?
And you may ask yourself
Am I right? Am I wrong?
And you may say yourself, "My God! What have I done?"

Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by, water flowing underground
Into the blue again in to the silent water
Under the rocks and stones, there is water underground

15. It's how we know what they are doing

It's called, "Projection". It like a confession of sorts. They do it on a daily basis. Her campaign already wreaks of desperation and we are still in the primaries.

[dchill]

28. More projection...

Than a 100 year old movie theater ever saw.

[azurnoir]

17. apparently Hillary in't exactly polling well with Latino's in CA

thus we see this desperation

here is the poll questions 21&22

23. HOLLLEEE SHIT

[azurnoir]

25. If that's the case trying to influence the Latino vote in CA by using Puerto Rico

would I be incorrect in saying there's a certain amount of tone deafness to it?

[NCTraveler]

34. This isn't some unknown Tweeter. Nt

[merrily]

35. Then good thing my post didn't say it a thing about the tweeter.

And, another straw man dies needlessly. O! The strawmanity!

[NCTraveler]

36. Damn autocorrect. It changed one letter and my intentions.

[merrily]

37. Autocorrect has a well-known liberal bias.

Either that, or it's sexist.

[NCTraveler]

38. Possibly. We are talking about a corporate device.

Can never be too sure.

[bravenak]

2. Seems like folks are very seriously trying to disenfranchise our brown brothers and sisters all

over the place. Disgusting!

[BainsBane]

9. Sure looks that way.

[sheshe2]

30. Actually.

I seems they are making a joke about it.

[bravenak]

31. Not funny

[MFM008]

3. interesting how these messes keep coming up

surrounding his campaign.

[seabeyond]

4. When I heard all 40 of their people denied I knew they weren't giving us the story. We will have to

Wait for the mess to truly be revealed, but this is more like it. Sanders dropping the ball. Let's see what else comes out.

[Sheepshank]

14. No...really? Sanders campaign fucked up campaign rules again and try to blame others?

Say it ain't so...again

[grasswire]

5. another shiny object from Brock!

The other one was shot down in minutes.

[avaistheone1]

16. It wouldn't surprise me at all if he is the catalyst.

[nadinbrzezinski]

6. Funny, you intend to give a link? You'd think the local Puerto Rico media woudl be on this

it's big. but cannot find it. Silly me...

[BainsBane]

7. an oversight. It's the Hill

will correct the OP now.

[nadinbrzezinski]

10. Thanks

becuase I am really looking at local media, and I have come pretty empty. This would be classic for Mexico too.

[merrily]

19. Not to worry. Soon, they'll be told what to say.

[KULawHawk]

11. Has anyone explained this yet?

You want to discuss fraud?

Too bad the Denver Post already exposed the DNC and Clinton campaign attempting to defraud the Colorado results. 10 precincts of at least 4% of Sanders' votes.
Just enough to give her control of the state delegation when superdelegates would give her more overall delegates than him even though he won Colorado by 68%.

While the Democratic Party knew about the discrepancy a week after the caucus, it chose not to correct the public record, according to the “Denver Post.” For some reason, the Hillary Clinton campaign knew about the problem, but the Sanders campaign was not informed until late Monday by the “Denver Post.”

29. Sure it's been explained: "conspiracy!", "egomaniac!", "sore loser!"

It works fine for the Republicans, they've seen them use this playbook to "elect" terrible candidates for decades, now it's Their Turn.

[Eric J in MN]

12. This is a guy who told people to vote for Clinton

...from his position as chair of the PR Democratic Party.

I don't trust him or his accusations.

[azurnoir]

18. First we're told Puerto Rico closed 2/3 of it's polling places @ Sander's er request

now he's been creeping around stealing ballot boxes - and we're supposed to believe this

[nadinbrzezinski]

20. It would be a BFD, nada in the local news.

And I mean Puerto Rico

[azurnoir]

21. Thank you I know the ballot box stuff started as a Reddit rumor last night

I see it's become the gold standard for some campaign supporters

[nadinbrzezinski]

22. So that is where it came from

Ah surprised... NOT

[azurnoir]

24. yep last night (Saturday) it included in an editorial comment written by the OP of an LBN thread

so I did a Google search then 2 things came up Reddit and DU

[aikoaiko]

26. Because I remember the "English only" untruth, I'll wait for more facts to clear the smoke.

The stories out of Puerto Rico are contradicting each other.

[TheFarS1de]

32. Yet another lie .

How is Hillary polling with Hispanics in CA ?

[Doctor_J]

33. And throwing chairs!
