How Bernie will win California (CRUCIAL INFO), please please read: [View all]

I made a post earlier about how 950,000 ballots still have to be counted in just 3 CA counties ALONE (there are 58 CA counties total), and similarly the LA times has estimated as many as 3 million ballots still haven't been counted We also know that CA will officially count all provisional ballots as long as they can verify voters were properly registered. Additionally, the absentee exit polls had Hillary up 10 points (55, 45), and The Guardian currently has the race at 55.8% Hillary, 43.2% Bernie. Given that so many ballots have yet to be counted my guess is (and I could be wrong on this), that the current results reflect more absentee ballots (which always favor Clinton) than the ballots cast yesterday. So, what does this mean?



As long as Bernie stays in the race until the convention (which he's vowed to do), CA is required to count the remaining ballots. And this is where YOU come in. If people keep checking their ballot status periodically and/or call 562-201-8999 to inquire about/track their votes, and demand their ballots be counted, then we stand at a higher likelihood of this process running smoothly and honestly. His numbers can only go up from here so let's do this! #StillSanders #AlwaysSanders #OnlySanders



EDIT: So far we know of 1,592,499 ballots to be counted in 10 counties: https://www.reddit.com/r/SandersForPresident/comments/4n76ts/thread_to_post_links_to_articlestweetsetc/



EDIT 2: From /u/jinianc — "We need as many Bernie volunteers as possible to be present as observers to verify and watch the ballot counting process. Every Bernie vote needs to be certified. If anyone has any time at all, it is an open process. This is your chance to be a part of the final and most crucial part of Bernie's campaign! If you're able to help out, please respond ASAP. Every day that goes by is a counting day." Information on how to get involved.



EDIT 3: Just to make things even more interesting, the lawsuit that alleges Clinton has been used for electoral fraud and has FBI backing will be filed today. " target="_blank">Source.


From /u/DJ_Lena — "trustvote.org RICO lawsuit filed on 6/6 in Ohio. The lawsuit is going to demand that all of the exit polls, 24 exit polls showing the fraud, now be published, that the MEDIA stop suppressing the evidence of crime. And they plan to prove the Election Fraud, that the media is covering up. They say FBI and DOJ are involved. And Ohio has the most stringent RICO law and it can be opened to ALL states"
