Bernie Sanders
Related: About this forumClinton Supporter Attacks Sanders supporter at registration drive.
Completely sensationalized thread title.. but here is the actual underlying story.
My wife was doing voter registration drive this morning. They had Bernie signs, Bernie flyers, she was wearing Bernie pins, etc..
A Clinton supporter came storming up to her (cell phone in hand) screaming that they were not allowed to do this.
"Not allowed to do what"? My wife asked.
The Clinton supporter explained that they were not allowed to advocate for a particular candidate while doing a registration drive and ordered them to leave before calling the authorities. My wife, knowing the rules (and being married to an ex-lawyer) explained to her... Yes, you can. You are not allowed to change someone's registration or not allow them to register b/c they are not voting for the candidate you support, but you are absolutely allowed to have Bernie Sanders signs and wear pins while collecting voter registrations forms.
The Clinton supporter became louder and louder threatening to "call the authorities", which my wife welcomed her to do.
The Clinton supporter stormed around angry for a little while before stomping off into the distance, while the Bernie supporters continued to register voters.
Hundreds of new voters brought in today.. all going out in today's mail!
YAY!

Worried senior
(1,328 posts)and I don't know why because I am really pissed off the way she acts.
When she had someone on there supporting Bernie she carries on and on about how much better Hillary is doing.

(12,471 posts)How outrageously violent! She might have put an eye out or something. This violence must stop. All Hilliary supporters are like this and should just back off. Hilliary needs to control her supporters better, and not advocate for such violence. They shouldn't be throwing cell phones at people!
(I know that she didn't throw her cell phone at you, but it's just like the chairs. Why not boost it up, so as to make them look bad too?)

(128 posts)Wasn't Debbie Wasserman Schultz all over mainstream media accusing the Bernie people in Nevada of threats and Intimidation? So who is doing what?
Thanks for your hard work, keep FEELING THE BERN!
