First report I have seen of voter fraud in Wisconsin. Just another primary election in the US.



What are the chances that they are going to seriously investigate this? And hold someone accountable? And fix the count?

Huh, really? And here I thought all GOP primaries/caucuses were winner take all?


Here's a chart of the Republican states that are Winner-Take-All, Hybrid, and Proportional.
Link: www.bustle.com... -season

I don't think any of the Democratic primaries are winner-take-all.


Are you saying that the average American, Rep or Dem, that takes the time to vote in the primaries, important imo, doesn't make a difference in the end result?


Well...there's another thread in this forum where the head of the Republican Party says exactly that. He says that according to the bylaws, the PARTY will pick the Republican nominee...not the voters who took off from work early, or woke up early, to stand in line and cast their vote. Party chairman Reince Priebus is one arrogant SOB.

That's interesting. Is Wisconsin a highly religious place? No, right? Why is Cruz so popular there?


The Wis Governor endorsed Cruz.

I bet that's where the popularity came from.



That and Trump really screwing up over the last couple weeks. Ticking off the few women who supported him was just plain stupid. And suggesting that he would want more countries with nukes was not bright either. He really needs an adviser who can explain some basic things about the world and another who can remind him to stop saying stupid things he is going to have to roll back on later anyway.

Some Wisconsin primary exit polls



And 35 percent of those who voted in the Republican primary said they would support Hillary Clinton, a third-party candidate or no one at all if Mr. Trump were the Republican nominee.

A Trump spokesman said they would investigate for however much there investigation will count. the people will have to call for it I suspect.

I have seen Cruz up by 10 in late March and it had narrowed to five until the last poll when Trump was up by 10 with 50K voters polled in Wisconsin.

Now Cruz up by 20%...wrong.

This process is a crock. Betting there will be some changes on the way.

I think the problem is more like this:

www.abovetopsecret.com...


We were hoping against hope that this would not continue, but I guess until some law enforcement agency is willing to stand up and stop it, the Cruzers will continue unabated. Wisconsin TV station WKOW TV, the ABC affiliate in Madison, started getting voter fraud calls early this morning. Apparently voting machines would not let some voters vote for Donald Trump “The station has spoken with multiple witnesses and is in the process of verifying statements from Burnett, Clark, Dane, Polk and Portage counties.” According to Jeremy Rogers from Burnett county: “It was the strangest thing. The machine literally would not allow me to vote Trump.” He said others voting at the same time he did had the same problem. “Seems like the establishment will stop at nothing to keep this out of the hands of Trump.” Former Trump advisor, Roger Stone has vowed to set up a network of volunteers to investigate any reports of fraud. I’m still reporting from Washington. Good day.

They are always investigated by local, state, federal agencies along with non profit watch dogs groups and lawyers and investigators working for campaigns. It is extremely rare anything is found. When it is people are prosecuted.

"I could shoot someone in the middle of 5th Avenue and not lose any votes." That appeals to some. If that's how it goes down it'll be the worst spanking since an actor went against a peanut farmer.

Where are our Sanders suppoters...have they faded away so soon?

I thought they would last longer than three months!!


suffering from "Bern-Out".

Can't speak for others, of either party flavor, but I'm not interested in fapping to mocking & goading posts. But whatever floats your boat, I suppose.

Well Sanders is declared a 'winner' even though Clinton still picked up 28 tonite.

Wyoming is next on the ninth @ 14 delegates.

Clintons home state on the nineteenth @ 247 delegates.

www.realclearpolitics.com...

'Socialism' hasn't been working out too well for Sanders when the runner up still gets a trophy for showing up, and is getting delegates adding to her lead.



Safe bet Clinton will take New York.

Around 20 primaries left to go.

Current delegate count 1271 Clinton advantage. To Sanders 1024.

With the 'superdelegates' Clinton at 1740 to Sanders 1055.

That's pretty telling. People flocked to Trump in the beginning, but now they'd rather vote Hillary. That's gotta smart for the party, and I don't mean that in a condescending manner.

Not to repeat what has been said many times... but:
Anyone with common sense realized that Trump was speaking in hyperbole. He was talking about how dedicated his supporters are.
Surely no one with common sense thought that he was saying he would actually shoot someone.

The current guy droned a few thousand people in the streets of the middle east, blamed a video in Benghazi, and sure didn't lose any.

I think the most interesting fact would be how many millions did the establishment and others spend for each percentage point of Cruz over Trump. And can they afford to keep spending at that rate?

Yeah, it must cost a fortune to payoff people to rig the voting machines

Yes and that's the point. Once it went to Dem vs Rep in the general election, that doesn't play. He'd be spanked by Bernie/Hillary as bad as Ronnie rolled over Jimmy.

Please.

You can blame all your supporter friends for the "bern" meme. Just because I used it against you all doesn't mean you should get ouchy.

Go protest free speech or block a rally if you're angry.

Yeah since GW is still on it.

In a round about way, yes! It seems so. Hillarys lips are so attached to his butt cheeks, it seems we are once again voting for Obama, or rather someone attached at his hind quarters.
