Why do you think that some parties in some states put a 6 month deadline in place? To put it another way, Clinton has a huge operation working for her. I'm willing to bet that there was a call list and a room of staff paid by Hillary's campaign on the phones making sure "the right people" were registered before the deadline. Bernie's campaign was in part flattened by her organization's get out the vote effort in early primary states. Do you think they had not given this time limit consideration and decided it hurt Bernie more than it did Hillary?What registered democratic voters got suppressed?

Because the rules were in place and available to everybody well before the election began, I don't think this is dishonest. I do think there was a sharp operator who made sure whatever was in place would be most helpful to Hillary. Calling it voter suppression would not be wrong.

All those who wanted to be part of the primary process but didn't know they had to be registered up to six months ahead. DUH.What registered democratic voters got suppressed?
That doesn't mean that it isn't voter suppression.Whatever was in place was in place for decades
It's not. You cannot show a single instance where registered democrats were denied a voice in their partys nominating process.That doesn't mean that it isn't voter suppression.
Why the fuck are you defending the broken parts of the system, anyway?
Yep, that whole thing was ginned up for television news.Video suggests Barbara Boxer really wasn't afraid of Sanders supporters
Broken how?That doesn't mean that it isn't voter suppression.

Interesting way to word that..It's not. You cannot show a single instance where registered democrats were denied a voice in their partys nominating process.
The democrats put these rules in place decades ago
Sanders takes money from anyone. Including super pacs and the Koch brothersInteresting way to word that..
What about the people that didn't know they had to be registered in their state by X amount of time before the primary, in some cases, up to 6 months before the election? Independents in closed primaries. The counties in New York that changed to opening the voting booth at noon right before the election and closed at 7 or 8pm (perfect for people who have to work, lower class people, predominantly Sanders supporters)?
"Well, those are the rules" is dumb logic because it's a dumb rule, and you're only using that argument because of the technical implication because you support Clinton.
Shady stuff perpetrated by the DNC, the Clinton campaign, Clinton supporters, and mainstream media that coincidentally helped Clinton and hurt Sanders has happened all throughout this campaign cycle, nobody can possibly deny that. The fact he's gotten this far despite all that and without superPAC money is a political statement that shows where this movement is going regardless of the outcome of this election.
Sanders campaign doesn't coordinate with any superPACs, they're completely independent of each other. And he absolutely does not take money from the Koch's, I would love to see a source on that claim!Sanders takes money from anyone. Including super pacs and the Koch brothers
Try Google.Sanders campaign doesn't coordinate with any superPACs, they're completely independent of each other. And he absolutely does not take money from the Koch's, I would love to see a source on that claim!
Quit fabricating shit. You're just butthurt that no one likes your candidate.Sanders takes money from anyone. Including super pacs and the Koch brothers
Long step from agreement on the occasional policy matter to funding the campaign.
"Fondly", and I have a girlfriend for that, but thanks.https://www.google.com/search?q=sanders+takes+money+from+koch&ie=&oe=
I don't have a candidate other than whoever the democratic nominee is
And with that I foundly wish you to go fuck yourself
