All registration volunteers were Clinton supporters. They bypassed Sanders supporters and processed Clinton supporters first to get them in faster. They also had 3 precincts in a single room, which violated rules.

(39,215 posts)whiners - screw you. This is no more whining that reporting robbing a bank is whining. Nor are we going to forget this. When things get even worse for Hillary as the election goes on - look back and learn. But it will be too late by then to change our attitudes at all.
Had enough dirty politics.

(5,668 posts)the Hillary nuts pretty much assume that if they tell you to f*** off , you'll forgive and forget later on. No , not really. Especiallly playing Karl Rove tactics in a DNC election. X_X no. Some might forgive but most won't forget. 15 yrs after Bush stole the election still haven't forgotten.

(7,231 posts)It stains the Democratic Party, and all this trickery leads to a most boased chair, who acts DINO all the time.
Third Way is fighting dirty because they know their time has gone. But like all tyrants, they refuse to go down without a scorched earth fight.

(30 posts)Certainly the most important take-away is the importance of getting people out to VOTE;
someone correct me, but i recall seeing on msnbc that somewhere around 12,000 total voters showed up.
a tactic learned from the GOP, is that when less voters show, the incumbent holds the ticket (pun intended).

(48 posts)12,000 delegates go to the next level which is the county conventions and then there is a state convention. It is a real pain in the ass and I hope we can get it changed. The Nevada Democratic party is a joke.

(441 posts)Caucuses are designed for life 150 years ago when more people lived on farms and there was no mass media. It made sense then to meet with your neighbors to talk about common interests and other issues. Today they only promote acrimony and corruption.

(7,006 posts)And Double Kick As I Was Just Proudly Blocked From The Hillary Group (Proudly Because They Cannot Handle The TRUTH) and This Bernie from Clark, NV is telling the Truth About How Low The Clinton Campaign Is Willing TO Go To Slime Bernie Sanders.
It Is Shameful and Disgusting, however typical, remembering how 2008 was in South Carolina with Bill and Hillary Clinton.
One would think they have learned. It appears they did not. In fact they doubled down.
If Bernie does not win the nomination the Democratic Party Will NOT be the SAME and the Clinton's, her "supporters", the DNC and Debbie Wasserman Schultz will have NO ONE to BLAME but THEMSELVES.
Don't blame the voter for propping up a candidate that might not win the General. Blame your establishment politics.

Wellstone ruled
(34,661 posts)by making sure Culinary Union Members were allowed to take time during their shifts to caucus. Old Harry does not want Sanders as POTUS,it would upset the apple cart for the Dem establishment. Yes kiddies,the system seems to be rigged.

(2,672 posts)First Iowa and then Nevada.
Something fishy went on in Iowa. First and foremost, the Iowa Democratic Party Chair is refusing to review caucus results is a huge Hillary supporter. People have short memories, she refuses and suddenly people forget. I haven't forgotten and I hope Sanders hasn't either. We need to keep the pressure on Andrea McGuire to release the caucus results. If we give in this easily, then cheating will continue.

(9,865 posts)And we need a lot more Bernie observers on the ground. At every caucus site. Every election site.
What Karol Francisco reports will not go away and Bernie/we should not be passive about it.
Hope her letter gets in the right hands at Bernie Central. Meantime, it should be sent to local press, Maddow and MSNBC as perhaps it can get to be a news story. Isn't the kind of controversy the press loves?
I have to sayit does not surprise me at all. We need to get a lot more pro-active.

(48 posts)I'm from precinct 6674 and we were at Spring Valley High school. There were at least 4 precincts in the gym It was confusing, disorganized, people were let into and then moved back out out of the room. The "preregistration did not work. People were moved from line to line because the folks at the table did not know what they were doing. People were angry frustrated and many people left.
during the caucus people were dismissed before delegates were selected until Bernie supporters stood up and explained that we had to select delegates to go to the next level. I don't know how calculated it was - but it was very discouraging and disheartening to see so much time money and effort on the part of volunteers go to complete waste due to the complete lack of preparation by the Nevada Democratic Party. They are a joke.

(36,281 posts)...so perhaps someone else can clarify this, but wouldn't it have been Ms/Mr Francisco's responsibility as precinct captain to object to those rule violations and document them in place? It sounds like she/he might not have understood their duties very well.
