Honestly call or email the Democratic party offices and voice that you one hundred percent agree with Sanders.

        a paper reciept for recount is an easy way to validate these machines. I’m skeptical of fully digital systems as those are harder to validate.

          A paper receipt is also a good way to be able to buy someone’s ballot or force them to vote a certain way under threat of violence.

            yeah exactly. ohio (who just elected a shitheel used car salesman to Senate) shows you the printout when you vote, but you can’t take it with you

            edit: i am in favor of this, basically, though I do not like the outcomes in Ohio the last 8 years or so. the state is fucked

      Pelosi is wrong. But she is not the owner of the DNC. The DNC is controlled by delegates elected by primary voters. The DNC is not a person or monolithic entity.

        I am not postmateDumbass and can’t speak for them, but Nacy Pelosi serves as a superdelegate, meaning she wasn’t elected to her position in the DNC. Blaming the voters for her presence there is wrong (however, blaming the voters for electing other selfish, poor-performing delegates would be fair game to me). I would guess their frustration is with the system which created this problem. If the people aren’t being heard year after year the group should be replaced by something that actually fucking works.

          You know who is also a superdelegate? BERNIE SANDERS. Being a superdelegate does not make someone “the DNC” nor make you a member of the DNC executive committee.

          I would guess their frustration is with the system which created this problem. If the people aren’t being heard year after year the group should be replaced by something that actually fucking works.

          I’m frustrated too. But if you don’t know how the system works you can’t change it. Instead of railing against an invisible boogyman, focus on individual politicians and the media message.

          And focus on simple and ideas concepts.

          Wealth inequality <-- not nearly enough focus

          Identity politics <-- way too much focus.
