There were widespread reports of irregularities by the Hillary Clinton campaign in the Nevada and Arizona primaries. In New York State, however, it appears that the Board of Elections illegally purged at least 150,000 voters in the Bernie Sanders stronghold of Brooklyn at the Clinton campaign’s behest…and more in other cities throughout the state.

“at the Clinton campaign’s behest”
Ted, do you have a source for that? If so I’d post it all over the place!
Don’t expect to find identifiable fingerprints in this age of plausible deniability.
It wouldn’t be a very professional hit if fingerprints were found.
“A New York City elections official has been suspended without pay after a bureaucratic error allegedly resulted in the removal of over 100,000 Brooklyn voters’ names from the city rolls during the state’s presidential primary, according to a report.
“Sources told the Daily News that Borough Office Chief Clerk Diane Haslett-Rudianoshe skipped one of the steps meant to stop the system from purging eligible voters.”

Diane Haslett-Rudiano
Hyphenated surname. Lmao…
I feel sorry for Ms Haslett-Rudiano, who will not be drawing her 113 k USD salary during the period of her suspension. After all, when US cops – mostly male – kill someone with the wrong complexion, they usually get their salaries while the charges are being investigated and then dismissed. Why should Ms Haslett-Rudiano be treaty any differently ? Rampant sexism !…

The Wrong Wing keeps purging voter registrations as well – moreover, it’s the same people being purged: liberals. Isn’t that interesting?
New York State has a closed primary, and the Party Leaders naturally declared that every true Democrat must support Secretary Clinton, and all those who announced they were NOT voting for Secretary Clinton were not TRVE Democrats.

The system is working just as our leaders always intended, because we’ve got leaders with enough foresight to stop those traitors and terrorists who try to overthrow the legitimate US government every November in even numbered years, and were planning to try on Tuesday, November 8, 2016, but our wise leaders have put paid to that insurrection.
As the New York Times pointed out in their magazine last Sunday, Secretary Clinton is the only candidate with the huevos needed to keep America safe from the terrorists, meaning the evil Syrian regime that created the Daesh by opening the Syrian prison, Camp Bucca, and the Ayatollahs of Iran, and also from the Soviet and Chinese Communists, not to mention North Korea.

Secretary Clinton won’t be a wimp like Obama. Or the Bushes. Or Bill. She’ll send as many divisions as necessary to make Syria, Iran, North Korea, the Soviet Union, and Communist China into peaceful and prosperous Democracies, just as she helped to do for Iraq and Libya, where every decent Iraqi and Libyan now thanks her daily for saving them from abject poverty and tyrannical oppression.
She’s known for at least two decades that the men of those divisions are supposed to die for her:
“Women have always been the primary victims of war. Women lose their husbands, their fathers, their sons in combat. Women often have to flee from the only homes they have ever known. Women are often the refugees from conflict and sometimes, more frequently in today’s warfare, victims. Women are often left with the responsibility, alone, of raising the children.”
And we wonder how it’s so easy for her to commit troops to any and every conflict…it’s because men aren’t people in her mind.
Well, Michael, it seems that blessed Peace will descend upon us shortly after 20 January 2017, depending upon how long that brief, but no doubt ultimately victorious war will last. Then, truly, History will come to an end, and the millennial triumph of «Liberal Democracy» will begin….
I feel reassured….
