No "fraud." Nothing "rigged." So no insanity please.

Bernie will NOT be the nominee because he has not received as many votes. Plain and simple as that.

It now all needs to be about defeating FrankenTrump. That is all that matters. He's evil.

2. Despite SANDERS cutting the number of polling places!!!

By more than TWO THIRDS!!!!!

The commonwealth initially had 1,510 polling locations. But it announced last month that the number of polling locations would be cut to 455 for the Sunday primary.
Robert Prats, president of the Democratic Party on the island, said the 455 locations are four times more than the number of polling locations open in the Republican primary in March.

Supporters of Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders were up in arms over the cuts, with supporters tweeting about the change. A "Sanders for President" reddit page also called the reduction "about as bad as Arizona" and dozens of Sanders supporters voiced concerns about the cuts on the page.

But the local party told MSNBC that the Sanders campaign had requested fewer stations.

Dem Party of PR tells @MSNBC that the Sanders campaign is the one that requested a cut in number of polling stations today.

Odd reporting on MSNBC: Sanders requested lower number of poll places in Puerto Rico, bc they had insufficient volunteers to monitor count

4. I think it is premature to say that there was no fraud or

that nothing was rigged. I don't think any evidence of election crimes has some to light, but so far as I am aware, there has also been no investigation of any fraud or election rigging. However, I saw an article in a PR paper recounting that prisoners has been threatened with death if they did not vote for Clinton, and another article reported that Bernie's campaign had turned over evidence to the FBI relating to fraud. To my knowledge, this is the first time the Sanders' campaign has done this, and this with is an election with numerous incidents that point to fraud, although they are not in themselves sufficient proof of it. Many Sanders' supporters are upset that he has not taken a stand on evidence of rigged machines in Chicago, voter suppression in Arizona and New York, irregularities in St. Louis and Baltimore, and the ongoing patterns of statistically unlikely voting results that suggest vote shifting in a number of states. But, if this report is correct, this is the first instance in which the campaign has itself asked for a federal investiation. I don't know what it is they are asking to be investigated, but I think it would have to be more than has made it into the press.

Speaking for myself, I am disappointed in both campaigns as well as the DNC that they have not insisted on investigations and corrective action in these kinds of cases. Some of these benifit Hillary, others Bernie, and others probably all Democratic candidates. But there really should be a no-tolerance policy for fraud.
