(290 posts)Some states are clearly less able to get primaries going without a hitch.

(1,019 posts)They can't just pick some random number and make that many ballots. So if large crowds of people who didn't register do show up at the polls, it's not like it's the polling stations fault for not expecting them. Not when they could have registered months ago. The polling stations can only plan for likely scenarios.

(68,868 posts)Except for the Bernie fans who curiously blame everything on Democrats even when it's Republicans at fault.
Firebrand Gary
(5,044 posts)Bernie fans who blame this shit on Hillary are way out of line! In fact, it's much more likely that they are GOPers trolling DU. It's a distinct smell of bullshit when "democrats" accuse the democratic party of suppressing our own voters.

(3,133 posts)I tired of hand counted paper ballots for the countries that we fix. Purple finger, to prevent voter fraud, etc.
We have shenanigan electronics in our voting. No paper is verified.
We need Haiti to jump in an secure the free vote.

(2,145 posts)Isn't it Utah where all the provisional ballots were used and now they have to check every one to be sure voters are registered? I hope Bernie has someone on hand to keep it honest.
