when all media outlets are covering it, more people paying attention, so it will be more difficult to ignore
which some will continue to do and will still be doing in 2018.

Do you know how many Bernie bumper stickers I saw on my way home last night? Three! A man with this level of support couldn't possibly lose in any primary. And did the people of Puerto Rico even know that he had a big rally in California a few days ago?! Very suspicious.....

I like to know the ratio of Sanders lawn signs to Hillary buttons in Puerto Rico. That will give us a much better idea of the real vote count.

I don't have a bumper sticker on my car and neither do most of the people I know. Looking around my neighborhood, I haven't seen many bumper stickers supporting any candidate.

Puerto Rico is Clinton country, just like my sate of NJ. She will win handily in both places.

And John King of CNN has said she is purposely holding back SD endorsements so that she will become the presumptive nominee through the voting process.

She always does better whenever voters are disenfranchised for some reason. Probably just a coincidence though.

Clinton wouldn't have 3 million more popular votes than Sanders. If there are fewer polling places, it inconveniences all voters equally, regardless of who they may be voting for.

I suppose you also think caucuses are great, while primaries suppress the vote. And up is down, while down is up.

Even though she is kicking his ass, there was more ass to kick but old people and people that work can't be waiting in lines, because those areas had polls reduced, due to Sanders.

Sanders people on the other hand spent the last couple days falsely accusing Clinton.

And Sanders didn't have the integrity to come clean.
