I could care less about swear words. They mean almost nothing to me. But continually making "jokes" at the expense of Bernie voters is NOT going to bring many people around to your cause (whatever that is - it's certainly not a very progressive one).
It takes more time for some to be able to deal with the cheating, rigging, and abject lying that many think stole the election from Bernie. You may not agree with that, but if you really cared enough to do the research...

(11,607 posts)Many of us have accepted that Bernie won't be the nominee absent some major scandal or tragedy (neither of which most of us hope for), but we still care about the results in California because we are concerned about people being able to vote. It's in Hillary's interest to have people be vigilant about voting problems in the primaries so that hopefully they can be corrected prior to November, especially in a state like California with a Democratic governor where they might be correctable.

Your divisiveness lingers on your authoritarian attitude and neither are good for the democratic party. Time for you to "give it a rest".

Are you so uninterested in the fate of the progressive wing of the Democratic Party that this isn't of interest?
Sancho
(9,070 posts)I've been part of the "progressive" movement since the 60s! I learned early on that "progressivism" should not ultimately be driven by economics for example. I learned that elections are hacked or manipulated sometimes and have been as long as there has been voting. Is there something new this week in CA?
There are people who think that elections need better voting systems (we certainly agree with that in Florida). There are some who think that Bernie was "dissed" (I don't). There are some who think Bernie has some kind of lock on liberal values (certainly that's not true).
The question is simply, "How does this video of the continuing count of votes in CA make any point?"
When I come to DU and see an OP - sometimes the intent is obvious. In this case there was a random video of some old news that has little impact on the current primary as far as I could tell. I was just asking if there was some point or opinion other than what was apparent. There was no comment in the original OP.
Silver_Witch
(1,820 posts)And that is sifficie t. If one other member on DU appreciates the information's it is worth sharing. If you don't care why click on the link? If you don't care why higher to read this post?
I think you care or you would have just moved on to the next story.
I care and enjoyed the post. And the hatred posted above proves an excellent point.
Sancho
(9,070 posts)In this case, the OP is someone speaking at a rally. There is no link or factual reference. As others have posted in the thread, the statement in the video is contradicted (or unverifiable) by official CA websites.
Meanwhile, it's not "new" that there were a bunch of uncounted ballots in CA. Over the last week or 10 days of counting, virtually nothing different in terms of outcome has been revealed, so unless ALL 500,000 ballots currently left go to one single Democratic candidate - the results will not change for the overall primary. No one believes that will happen.
There's nothing "new" in accusations of election manipulation. Hopefully CA's counting process is accurate even though there was some early confusion from new voters on how to register as a Democrat. As far as I can see from here in FL - that was resolved. I did not know if the OP was aimed at some new claim of voting fraud.
I was simply asking if the OP made some point that was new, or provided some new information. If not, it may be something of interest in a group (Bernie?) instead of in General Discussion: 2016.
I think that OPs on DU should usually make a clear point of the discussion or evidence. I think the title appears to be misleading at best.

She said everyone she knew was for Bernie. She said there was NOT one single Hillary sign that she had seen. She voted for the first time in her life. When the results came in, she went through all the stages of grief. She ended just being depressed and vowing to stay away from politics.
This will cheer her up and may not disillusion her so badly as to make her give up on politicss. That is the danger (and gift for RepubliCONS) of faulty rigged voting systems.

"Going into a presidential election year, Secretary of State Alex Padilla says voting equipment in all of Californias counties is nearing the end of its life expectancy. He says the situation is becoming urgent, and could turn disastrous as it did in 2000.
Most of us remember Florida that year, butterfly ballots, hanging chads, he says. And many experts point to the aging voting systems of Florida as responsible for the crisis that triggered the U.S. courts intervention in the determination of who won the presidential election."

passiveporcupine
(8,175 posts)So, it's a bit presumptuous to tell people to "get over it", and imply they are immature, because they get excited when more votes seem to be accruing for Bernie. Even if it doesn't change his position in the race, it does validate some of the energy and excitement his supporters all shared.
As far as being discouraged as a new young voter. I think it's pretty easy to put people down for voter apathy. Many people know from experience that their battles will never be won in a country run by the Oligarchy and establishment, and have given up. Directing their focus to their own lives and circumstances seems like a more effective use of their energy. Individuals often don't see the forest for the trees. They don't realize their votes would count if only everyone who is eligible would get out and vote. But then a lot of us know the reality is a lot of people just won't vote, period. They are not into anything but personal circumstances.
If we had a real democracy, where our votes really counted and politics were not bought and owned by the Oligarchy, it would change a lot of apathy to energy again. But regardless, not everyone is into politics. Just because you are, does not make you more mature...just more aware.

passiveporcupine
(8,175 posts)However, you were responding to a woman who said her daughter was "giving up" on politics, and of course we all know who "lost" the election, so it's not quite working.
I'm not attacking you. It just sounded a little like you were saying it was immature of her daughter to opt out just because of one loss. I think it's totally understandable to feel the way her daughter does if her first foray into politics is so hyper and ends in such a defeat, when all appearances (crowds and enthusiasm) pointed to a different outcome. Yes, we all mature throughout our life (thank goodness), but some defeats early in life can really change a person's outlook and direction, and sometimes that's not a good thing.

I'm sure I felt just as bad at other Dem. candidate's losses over the years.
But those very early losses felt especially bad, and remain in my memory, since I had only lived under a Democratic Presidents up to Eisenhower.
And, being young, I had never experienced the pain of political losses until then.
You can call my response whatever you wish. Your perception is whatever you make of another's words. Perceptions are attitudinal - the attitude one brings colors one's perceptions.
I do not come to DU to argue - never have, never will.
I do come to discuss and to learn, and perhaps that's where my attitude is incorrect - when I attribute the will to discuss, learn and even support and sometimes console others who come here.
That's why I have not been involved in the back and forth of the primary forums, and all that they involved.
So I really don't even know the names and views and reputations on DU of those who have been so involved in the primaries.

U.S. elections ranked worst among Western democracies. Heres why.
The 2015 annual Year in Election report compares the risks of flawed and failed elections, and looks at how well countries around the world meet international standards. The report gathers assessments from over 2,000 experts to evaluate the perceived integrity of all 180 national parliamentary and presidential contests held between July 1, 2012, and Dec. 31, 2015, in 139 countriese. These include 54 national elections held last year...
....The 2012 U.S. presidential election ranks 60th out of 180 elections worldwide, close to Bulgaria, Mexico and Argentina.
This is no one-time shortcoming. The 2014 U.S. congressional elections rank even worse, 65th out of 180 worldwide.

(9,141 posts)The independent votes but Clinton supporters who are insulting and talking down to Sanders supporters are dividing the vote because what they say to the Bernie supporters they are saying to the independents as well since he leads all comers in the independent voters. Here and at the Maddow blog the insults are rancid making one feel who would vote for someone who has such a-holes for supporters. Time to be pleasant and respectful of our differences and talk issues and not insulting vague generalities. The rude vile demeaning comments about Bernie's motivations etc act as vote killers, making people want to stay home rather than join those making fun of them. This petty shallow thinking focused on the horse race ignores 27 million people who differ slightly in their views but are just as intelligent and involved as those doing the mocking. The Trump on Bernie trolls act like Clinton supporters trying to divide the party by demeaning Bernie supporters. If the Clinton supporters would just stop it then we'd know who the real trolls are.

(29,722 posts)She will gain almost all the Democratic votes, but is still working to gain the support of independents and even the odd republican.
I'm sorry you feel demeaned and feel the best way to vent your frustration is to vote for Trump (votes for anyone but Clinton will be a vote for Trump.) Posting false stories that Bernie won in places he didn't are really non starters for pleasantries and are somewhat disrespectful in themselves.
To understand the vote count, it is always best to go to the source which is the individual secretary of state's website rather than rely on some random person telling us what is so. Of course, that is JMHO

(8,175 posts)all other districts in that area are still for Hillary. Have not found info on San Fran yet, but the info in the OP is incorrect.

edit:
According to California gov info, District 12 has not flipped to Bernie. That is San Francisco. However, according to the link posted above, some vote tallies will be updated tomorrow. I don't know for which districts. Not all provisional votes have been counted yet.

(4,494 posts)In LA County, Clinton leads Sanders by 147,602 votes, with only 111,920 ballots remaining, so it is mathematically impossible for him to win the county.
In SF County, Clinton leads Sanders by 16,765 votes, 53.6% to 45.9%, with all ballots counted, so he has lost the county.
