75%-25% AAs
59%-41% Women

Under the prevailing political climate, how can anyone believe what is being publshed?
So quoting numbers is meaningless. One even has to ask if people working at the polling stations can be trusted. The entire election/voting system is suspect.

North Korean leader Kim Jong-un was elected to the rubber-stamp parliament with 100% votes on Monday. He's not the only leader to win an election overwhelmingly, writes Tanvi Misra.

Iraq former president Saddam Hussein also won 100% votes in a 2002 referendum on whether his decades-long rule was to continue. Former Supreme Leader Kim Jong-il fared almost as well as his son in 2009, winning 99.9 % of votes. Raul Castro earned 99.4% votes in the 2008 Cuban election and Syria's Bashar al-Assad secured 97.6% votes for his 2007 presidential referendum.

Turkmenistan's Saparmurat Niyazov in 1992 and Chechnya's United Russian Party in 2011 both secured 99.5%. Kurbanguly Berdymukhamedov, also from Turkmenistan, topped them with 97% in 2012. In 2004, Georgia's Mikheil Saakashvili won more than 96% votes after his predecessor was ousted in a bloodless revolution.

So Hillary got 75% of the Alcoholics Anonymous vote?

Well that certainly explains why she won.

Maybe you should open the hatch in your bunker and let some fresh air in?

I think Hillary's votes are all probably legit.

But another thing that doesn't make sense to me is how can there be so much enthusiasm for Bernie as evidence by his massive rally's and record breaking donations, and still overall Democratic turnout is way down from 2008?

Seems very fishy to me.

Makes me think maybe some of Bernies votes are being disappeared.

The New York City Board of Elections is preparing to fire Diane Haslett-Rudiano, the chief clerk of elections in Brooklyn, after suspending her without pay following the New York primary’s chaotic voting process and massive voter purge.

Haslett-Rudiano was ousted by the City Board of Elections on Thursday night, “without pay, effective immediately, pending an internal investigation into the administration of the voter rolls in the Borough of Brooklyn,” according to a statement from the Board of Elections.

Sources with the New York Daily News also said that she was being “forced out.” Though an official termination has not been announced yet, one is expected this coming Tuesday.
