Klamath Falls ballot drop box vandalized, ballots found in dumpster
Note: This thread isn't about Hillary vs Bernie or implying anything organized.
"KLAMATH FALLS, Ore.-- A Klamath Falls ballot box at the Klamath Basin Senior Center was broken into over the weekend and ballots were found in a nearby dumpster, according to a press release from the Klamath County Clerk.
The ballots will still be counted.
Voters concerned about their ballot can call 541-883-5134 to check their ballot's status. A replacement can be issued if it has not been received.
Tampering with ballots is a Class C felony. The press release says it appears to be an isolated incident."

Like I said from the start. This isn't about starting drama. Hopefully those affected will make the appropriate calls.
FYI this is in a supposedly Clinton stronghold so please don't make assumptions.
Interviews in Civil Suit Over Hillary Clinton Email Server to Begin This Week
Source: WSJ
WASHINGTON—Interviews in a civil lawsuit with current and former State Department officials concerning former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server will begin this week.
Lewis Lukens, a former deputy assistant secretary of state, will be interviewed under oath in the first deposition taken as part of a lawsuit by the conservative watchdog group Judicial Watch over access to Mrs. Clinton’s records during her time in office.
The civil lawsuit, which targets the State Department, doesn’t name Mrs. Clinton as a defendant, but it has the potential to complicate her presidential bid. Mrs. Clinton is seeking to clinch the Democratic nomination against rival Bernie Sanders and turn her attention to a likely general-election contest against presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump.
The depositions, which will explore why Mrs. Clinton set up a private email server for her government work, will become part of the public record. Judge Emmet Sullivan, a Democratic appointee, granted Judicial Watch the right to conduct discovery, allowing the group to seek information from State Department officials—a rare order in a case concerning the Freedom of Information Act.

Bernie Sanders Is Poised to Make a Very Weird Kind of History Tonight
"Clinton County is Sanders country.
Bernie Sanders can make history in Tuesday night's Kentucky Democratic primary. No, he can't clinch the Democratic presidential nomination, nor is he likely to score a big win that convinces superdelegates to switch their allegiances en masse. But if he can beat Hillary Clinton in Kentucky's Clinton County, he will have defeated Clinton in all nine of the Clinton Counties in the United States."

Memo to Hillary: Do Not Put Bill in Charge of the Economy
"Most Americans don't want to go back to the 1990s. And here's why they're right about that
During a campaign stop in Kentucky on May 15, presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton said her husband, Bill, would be in charge of “economic revitalization” were she to win the election.
This is a terrible idea and, possibly, the most tone-deaf suggestion Clinton has made during the current campaign.
Bill Clinton’s economic legacy is not a net positive to Hillary politically. Sure, economic growth was relatively strong in the 1990s. But what kind of growth was it? I’d argue it was growth of the short-term, saccharine variety, fueled by a brief tech productivity boom (now ended) and a stock-market bubble which corrected much of the asset wealth created during that period. This period was also the point at which wages began flattening not just for poor Americans but for nearly everybody. The high-tide of the late-1990s did lift a lot of boats, but plenty of wreckage was left in its wake as soon as it was sucked back to sea.
That’s in part because many on President Clinton’s team bought into notions of trickle-down economics Republicans before them had. The history of deregulation and economic policy shifts under his tenure contributed in many ways to some of the problems that we face in the financial markets today. (For more on these, read TIME’s current cover story on saving capitalism, adapted from my book, Makers and Takers: The Rise of Finance and the Fall of American Business.)
Many now acknowledge that derivatives deregulation under Clinton was, in retrospect, unwise. But a less well understood legacy of his economic policy is the pressure for companies to make short- rather than long-term decisions."

Hillary is already walking this idea back.
