California Counts Millions of Provisional and Mail in Ballots Counties Flip for Bernie
By Dawn Papple, Inquisitr

(June 12, 2016 11:00 pm) — Even though The New York Times declared that Hillary Clinton “secured enough delegates for the Democratic nomination,” and later issued a correction blaming the erroneous statement due to “an editing error,” Hillary Clinton did not actually earn enough delegates to be declared the nominee of the Democratic Party. In fact, contrary to the call by the Associated Press, Clinton also has not actually won California either. There are still millions of ballots that remain uncounted that will indeed be counted as the official canvass progresses, according to the California Secretary of State’s office. As the canvassing got underway, things started to to look up for Bernie Sanders’ supporters.

In Los Angeles County 275,972 Vote-By-Mail, 256,326 Provisional and 24,021 ballots of another form still had to be counted as of Friday afternoon. This totals over 556 thousand ballots in Los Angeles County alone that will be counted, where Clinton’s lead over Sanders is just over 164 thousand votes. Los Angeles County could still go either way.

The votes simply aren’t all accounted for just yet, but they will be.

By Baxter Dmitry, YourNewsWire

(June 12, 2016 10:00 a.m.) — An historic lawsuit has been filed after the widespread cover-up of Sanders’ landslide victory at the primary election earlier this week.

The lawsuit will require the counting of all the provisional ballots, millions of which have been left uncounted, which Sanders says gives him a huge win in the state.

Comment by niknar 6/13/2016 4:24 a.m.:
There are quite a number of Republicans who would vote for Bernie. But half the independents would vote for Bernie, & they form nearly half the electorate. So with Bernie’s slightly under half of the Democrats, altogether just under 40% of the US electorate prefers Bernie, while neither Clinton nor Trump can reach 30%. A 3rd Party Sanders run, accepting the offer of the Green Party to head their ticket, would be a landslide victory for Bernie.

Bernie Sanders Team Claims ‘It Ain’t Over’ After Hillary Clinton Clinches
By Daily Beast

(June 8, 2016 03:36 a.m.) — After decisive wins in New Jersey and California, Hillary Clinton takes a victory lap. But Bernie vows to fight on, and on, and on.

The Democratic primary contest that no one saw coming between the woman who would be president and a gnarly socialist senator from Vermont is finally, finally—but, ahem, not entirely—over.

Even before Tuesday’s primaries, the Associated Press had counted enough solid delegates, committed and “super,” to declare Hillary Clinton the putative nominee. And after her more-than-convincing primary victories in New Jersey and California last night (63 percent and 56 percent), she decided it was time for a victory lap. From above the old glass ceiling, she reached down to Bernie Sanders, congratulating him on his campaign and, looking back at her own emotions in 2008, saying she knew well how hard it is to concede.

Bernie Sanders Visits SF’s Mission District

(June 6, 2016 21:06 pm) — Senator Bernie Sanders addressed a crowd of more than 200 in San Francisco’s Mission District, the ZIP code that has raised the most money for the presidential hopeful’s campaign nationwide, one day before the California primary election on June 7.

In his remarks at the City College of San Francisco’s Mission campus, the Vermont senator addressed some of his main campaign points, including concerns over the influence of big banks and financial firms on politics, global warming and the need for environmental protections, accessible higher education and political engagement. But he dismissed the notion that these are radical ideals.

“Our ideas are as mainstream as motherhood and apple pie,” he said.

Bernie Sanders Vows to Dismantle Democrats’ Superdelegate System
By ADELLE NAZARIAN

SANTA CRUZ, California (June 1, 2016 8:41 am) — Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) held two rallies on the Central Coast on Tuesday, vowing to tackle the political “oligarchy” of “superdelegates” in the Democratic Party.

“Hillary can show you how absurd the current system is,” Sanders said, noting that the former Secretary of State had “received over 400 super delegates supporting her before anyone else was in the race… That is an absurd system and together we are going to change that system.”

Sanders spoke before 2,500 at the Kaiser Permanente Arena in Santa Cruz, and at Colton Hall in Monterey, where almost double that number turned up.

Social media captures incredible line to see Bernie Sanders’ Oakland speech
By Dianne de Guzman

(May 31, 2016 3:42 p.m.) — Local supporters of Sen. Bernie Sanders were hella feeling the Bern.

On Monday, they were also feeling the pain of standing on their feet: an epic line preceded the presidential candidate’s speech at Frank Ogawa Plaza and traversed six city blocks.

While that may not sound impressive, given that the line was given the amusement park treatment and snaked throughout the six blocks, the feat has a bit more gravitas. Sanders supporters seemed pretty pleased with the turnout, with one person recording a (thankfully) sped up video of the line, estimating that the walk was about 17 minutes long:

Bernie Sanders draws big crowd in Vallejo
By Press Democrat

VALLEJO (May 18, 2016 10:45 pm) — Decrying the “rigged economy,” the war on drugs and student loan debt, and making light of his own unruly white hair, Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders delighted a crowd of thousands Wednesday evening at a waterfront park in Vallejo.

Fresh from successes in the Oregon and Kentucky primary elections, the Vermont senator with socialist/populist inclinations — like a tax on Wall Street speculation to refinance student debt and pay for free college tuition — punched the air with his right arm as he recited his campaign talking points.

The crowd ate it up.
