Probably because he caucuses and votes with the Democratic party 98% of the time. I assumed that he did change his party registration, do you have information otherwise?

Sanders meeting today with Obama and Reid; no doubt he will get the full court press to drop out and swing his voters to Hillary.

I don't agree with most of his policies, but I will be disappointed if he gives in.

California made every effort to educate NPP voters who requested mail in ballots.

They can still vote electronically without a provisional ballot by showing up at the polling station and surrendering their mail in ballot. We had numerous voters at the polling station where I volunteered who actually did just that.

If they didn't bring in their mail in ballot despite the clear instructions to do so in the voters guide? They were given the option to go home and get it or they were allowed to vote a provisional ballot.

As to Greg Palast, he's full of shit that California provisional ballots are placebos. Every provisional ballot is counted by the County Registrar after it's verified that they haven't attempted to vote twice. As in, once by mailing it in and then voting at their polling station.

Sorry that you're all pissed off by the erroneous information that you've chosen to believe but as Old Honest Abe once said, "Don't believe everything you read on Reddit".

I actually am an asshole and proud of it, at least you got that point right dillweed.

In closing, bite me.

Sure Bob, everything went smooth as silk out there.

And I don't need to worry about those million or so provisional ballots.

The Clinonistas will make sure they all get "counted"

He's lost by four million votes and well over three hundred delegates. It's mathematically impossible for him to win.

Even his best friend, Cenk Uygar is advising him to suspend his campaign.

Yaaaaawn, people wonder about a lot of things that aren't true. That's Senor Clintonista to you, big boy.

ps I've looked at that Bernie sub/reddit, some of those feckers are insane or Trump trolls messing with you guys.

That is true - we are going to find out a lot about him soon - I think his policies are dated and unworkable but I think he is honorable - I think he will have a hard time looking into the faces of his supporters - especially all the young people who have fired up his campaign - and asking them to vote for Hillary. I don't think he wants to let them down.

We'll see what happens!

So one area in LA wasn't as prepared as they should have been, they provided voters with an alternate way to vote and both candidates bore the impact, if any.

What's your beef again?

Oh yeah.... Those crazy theories that say the election was rigged....😏
