http://usuncut.com/politics/6-reasons-bernie-sanders-actually-owned-the-debate-despite-what-pundits-claim/
When the mainstream media polled focus groups to ask who won the debate, group participants overwhelmingly chose Bernie Sanders. CNN selected a group of undecided voters in Nevada; conservative messaging guru Frank Lutz picked a focus group of Democratic voters in Florida; Fusion picked out a focus group of millennial voters from Miami. And in each instance, focus groups thought Bernie Sanders won the debate. Luntz’ participants described Sanders as “strong,” “smart,” and “for the people,” with nearly all participants picking him as their favorite. Fusion’s focus group picked Sanders 8-3.

Canadian elections and their process

They have what is called advanced polls where you can vote from the 9th through the 12th.

Apply as soon as possible, to allow time for your voting kit to reach you and for your marked ballot to reach Elections Canada by election day.
I get the feeling that the country of Canada thinks it is a good thing to have it's citizens actually vote.
Damn, they are serious about this thing. Oh and Huff Canada is saying that the voting so far is off the hook. Harper is probably long gone.
So Hillary is going after guns
She is hoping to get some of the left's votes.
This is what happened today when President Obama visited the grieving families in Oregon. Sorry about the link source, it came on my FB feed from a very progressive friend. We are appalled. Hillary may wonder how good of a choice she made because I don't think she will gain that any more Left votes but may lose some votes she already had.

Watch how French workers don't take cuts timidly

Call to Latino community to make the Democratic Party work for their votes
http://time.com/3462339/latino-vote-2016-democrats-immigration/The article is rather harsh on President Obama, but I think the community is tired of waiting on immigration reform and it seems like there is a call in the Latino community to make the Democratic Party work for their votes.
That line really struck me because I think that is how minorities are treated in general by politics.
Gerrymandering not working well enough
So they decided to do this.

Ala. to Close 31 Satellite DMV Offices in Counties Where 75 Percent of Voters Are Black
labama requires a photo ID to vote.
According to the report, the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency announced (pdf) Wednesday that 31 satellite state Motor Vehicle Division offices would no longer have access to driver's license examiners as a result of the cuts, meaning that residents will have to travel to other counties in order to take care of their licensing needs.
AL.com's John Archibald was quick to notice that this new change, coming one year after the voter photo-ID law took effect, does not appear to be a coincidence. He is calling for the Department of Justice to open an investigation, the site notes.
