Hundreds of New York Sanders Supporters File Suit After Finding their Voters’ Registrations Were Illegally Altered
Who Benefits from the Vote Fraud?
April 16, 2016, New York. Today, thousands of New Yorkers filled 20 New York blocks to let the world know that New York belongs to Bernie Sanders if the voters of that state have their say in Tuesday’s election.
Yesterday, hundreds of New Yorkers filed suit after finding that their voters registrations had been altered without their consent. A similar phenomenon has been happening in various states across the country.
All Sanders supporters are being advised to go to the polls to vote, regardless of whether or not their registrations are accurate. If possible, voters should go online to obtain a cell phone screen shot or photograph of a copy of their voters registrations in case they are declined at the polling place. It should be available online at the Board of Elections, http://www.elections.ny.gov/CountyBoards.html If voters can’t find can’t find online or it is altered, they are advised to go to the polls, anyway. If it has been altered, they can vote an affidavit or demand to obtain a court order from the judge on call. There is a good chance they will be allowed to vote a regular ballot if they choose the court order option. Voters are being advised that requesting a court order from the judge on call is the preferred option. In any case, they should also take a photo of their ballot or affidavit. This helps document the number of votes Sanders receives. .
Every Sanders voter is being told that their vote is critical. Their neighbors or family members may be among those disenfranchised and a voter may wind up being the only one whose vote counts in their neighborhood.
The real question lies in who altered the registrations? Why were the registrations of Sanders supporters altered and not those of the Clinton supporters? The easiest way to alter the registrations would be by computer. Last year, NGP Van, associated with the Hillary Clinton campaign and with Debbie Wasserman Schultz, made the Sanders data available to the Clinton campaign and visa versa. The Sanders campaign blew the whistle on the problem and the Democratic National Committee temporarily confiscated Sanders’s voting data, which included the names, phone numbers and addresses of supporters known at that time. It turns out that one of Sanders campaign’s software people, who was fired following the incident, may have been a plant from the Clinton campaign, which would likely mean additional access by Clinton to the Sanders data files. More than once the Sanders voter information data bases have been hacked. Executives for certain software corporations capable of engaging in hacking have contributed large sums to Clinton’s campaign. Of course, that doesn’t mean they engaged in such hacking operations. All that speaks to is opportunity.
What about motive? Surely winning New York and the nomination wouldn’t be a motive for someone to rig an election? And a candidate already on the possible verge of indictment for numerous other possible crimes against the country surely is above reproach, right?
For years, Americans have been warned about the ease of computerized election rigging by programmers who have said they have written and could easily install programs that could flip election outcomes. In the case of closed primaries, the easiest way to rig an election is to make sure none of your opponent’s supporters can vote.
Sanders supporters have been calling for a Justice Department investigation. It was primarily Sanders supporters who also discovered their registrations had been illegally altered in Arizona a week after the Sanders voter data bases were hacked. Hmmm.
Making things more complicated, many polling places in areas where Sanders is expected to win big in New York have cut six hours out of their voting hours, making it harder for working New Yorkers to vote. Under the law, voters must be given time off work to vote, but many voters aren’t aware of this.
One thing is certain. Any victory by Clinton in New York will be instantly suspect and attributed by New Yorkers and Americans to the disenfranchisement of Sanders supporters. Some suggest that Americans count each New York Sanders vote double to determine the correct percentage of the support he would obtain if half his supporters hadn’t been disenfranchised. The DNC, which is backing Clinton would never do this, but it cannot stop Americans from speculating what the total would have been if all Sanders supporters had been allowed to vote in New York state.
Oddities like this only fuel the anger against Hillary Clinton and add to the likelihood that most Americans, especially Democrats, will refuse to vote for her in the general election. A majority of voters already have an unfavorable opinion of Clinton, making it unlikely she could could win if nominated. Polls show the best chance for a Democratic victory in November is if Sanders is the Democratic nominee. Additional polls show that Sanders could beat both Clinton and any Republican nominee in a three-way race, something that is becoming more and more likely with each rigged primary.

Next time the GOP yell “voter fraud” about half of these yahoos are going to agree using this article’s definition and example of the phrase ‘voter fraud’. This is Election Fraud. No amount of picture id’s, birth certificates, new voter i.d. cards, will help because….this isn’t voter fraud. It’s voter suppression, and the GOP will allow this misconception to continue while they suppress more voter rights. Please using the right words matters. Election Fraud.

My comrades in the Bernie or Bust camp are going to be very disappointed if Bernie does not win the Democratic nomination. Many are going to be disappointed in Bernie when he endorses Hillary if she is the nominee. Most would rather see Bernie run as an independent in November if he doesn’t win the nomination in Philadelphia. Many have pledged to write-in Sanders even if he endorses Clinton.
We all need to get on the same page.
First, we all need to understand exactly what is going on and why.
Bernie entered the Democratic primaries pledged to support whomever won the nomination. There was little likelihood that Bernie would be anywhere as successful as he has been. Nor did we expect questionable conduct by the Clinton campaign involving vote irregularities in many states.
Even so, Bernie made a promise.
If Hillary wins the nomination, many, such as yours truly, have implored him to renege on that commitment and to opt for an independent or third party run in the general election against Hillary Clinton. It is a safe bet that such a move is not going to happen.
There are significant obstacles to Bernie running as an independent, even if he were disposed to do so. Deadlines have passed in many states. Some forbid one running as an independent if the candidate competed in a contested party primary. Running on a third party ticket would require being the standard bearer of several minor parties across the country, as none is ballot qualified in every state.
In the wake of losing four states on Tuesday, Sanders is now focusing on winning delegates for the purpose of forcing the party to adopt a progressive platform which would incorporate much of Bernie’s message on wealth inequality, universal healthcare, tuition free public colleges.
For progressives, such a platform is mere puffery and sleight of hand. Hillary will still be Hillary. The DNC will be unchanged. Wall Street Democrats will continue to serve their masters.
The Democratic party platform is a joke. It is not binding in any way. And fighting over it is a waste of time, money, energy, and the souls of progressives.

You need to just stop these unfounded and outta context conspiracy theories. The truth is the people are overwhelmingly voting for and supporting Hillary – at all levels … Women, seniors, persons of color, LGBTQ, persons with disabilities – every group except white men under 30. In every capabilities she is better qualified, stronger, savvier, more intelligent, better grasp of conplex issues, more foreign policy experience, more viable and implementable solutions, better feminist, and most important better record of results that actually advance women, POC, working class, etc. this is age-old story of much Kich lessor qualified old white guy getting support from white guys over a much much better qualified female. She has endorsements and overwhelming support from civil rights, feminist and labor organizations. When someone who has no record of success, who lies and breaks every campaign promise (superPacs, canpaign fraud, bashing Planned Parenthood and HRC, parroting right wing Tea Party lies aboutHillary, spending campaign monies on himself, misrepresenting endorsements, filing frivolous lawsuits when he doesn’t win, etc, etc) and promises solutions that aren’t well thought out, or lack the influence needed to get them passed. Yet white guys Jew trying to shove him down our throats – when the will of the people is obviously in her court – the last thing I think is democracy or qualification – I seen the 2016 version of 1950s good ole boys club. Hillary prioritizes and has for more than 3 decades the concerns and issues of the other 60%. She is not perfect but she is best for continuing to make incremental change while actually giving voice to concerns of women, working class, POC, LGBTQ, seniors, vets, persons with disabilities, education, equal pay, feminists, etc. the real revolution, in case you are missing it, is out first female feminist president. And women and persons of color saying enough! Enough ehite men trying to tell us what’s in our best interest. Stop this whining and political purism that will end on the election of a Republican. You guys can be cavalier about reproductive rights – you don’t get pregnant, equal pay – you guys make more, criminal justice reform – the system is rigged for you, etc, etc. we can’t and we won’t. 200 years in the making. Hillarys got this. #Imwithher and considering the white techie guys are mostly Sanders supporter this theory stated above is both incredulous and improbable. Not to mention Hillary won by a huge margin. Guys forgot to register as democrats – stop whining.

The ignorant are voting for Hillary. The informed are voting for Sanders. On every issue you mentioned, Sanders is the more progressive.
Criminal justice? The Clintons pushed mandatory minimum sentences that incarcerated an entire generation of African Americans. She pushed the War on Drugs, she opposes legalizing pot. She favors the death penalty. She rakes in money from the private prison industry. She only recently changed her mind on gay marriage. She is a political windsock, and has been on both sides of every major issue since 1992.
She used to support universal healthcare, then it started raining money from Big Pharma and the insurance industry. Now she opposes universal healthcare.
She supported the draconian Defense of Marriage Act that Bill signed into law, then lied to us that she only supported it because there was a push for a constitutional amendment that would have been worse. Only problem was the constitutional amendment hadn’t even bee proposed at the time.
She has no regard for the truth and will say anything to anyone. Remember her bullshit story about landing in Bosnia under sniper fire? Her visit to Bosnia was recorded by all the networks, and shows her and Chelsea being warmly received and not a bullet fired.
She sucks at the teats of Wall Street. She has been in public service yet managed to acquire millions in gifts, bribes, and speaking fees. As Secretary of State she approved arms sales to countries that donated to the Clinton Foundation.
She is everything wrong with the country and the system.
I have nothing against voting for someone with a vagina, but having a vagina is not the most important qualification for office. Not being a criminal rates right up there.

I think it is an eye opening dilemma we are witnessing right now. The amount of voter suppression going on in NY, Arizona, and other states that are not as known is proof that this delegate system is flawed.
For instance, I am from SC, it has not been made mainstream, however I know of a few people whose voter registration was changed without their knowledge. One in particular, Jessica Watson, a close friend of mine showed up to vote in the primary to find her ballot had been cast as an absentee ballot for the Republican primary. She was outraged and spoke out that she has never voted Republican before in her life, so why was her registration changed? She stated she had been open on social media as a Sanders enthusiast months prior to the primary elections.
The inspiring thing is we are looking at what might be the largest voter turnout in history and the largest voter write in/ green party vote count in history.
