While the Democrats routinely claim voter fraud doesn’t exist, C-SPAN cameras may have unwittingly captured Hillary Clinton campaign organizers engaging in the practice during the Iowa caucuses.
Clinton’s mentor Saul Alinsky would be proud.
According to the video posted on the C-SPAN website, “Caucus chair and Clinton precinct captain do not conduct actual count of Clinton supporters and deliberately mislead caucus” at Roosevelt High School in Des Moines.
Sanders was winning during the first vote, but when a recount was called, Clinton gained the lead.
Reddit user CosmicJesus3 describes the scene:
So basically in the caucus they have to hand count everyone depending on what side they’re sitting on. Well when it came time to do the second count the numbers were off. The first vote breakdown was like this:
FIRST VOTE: 215 Sanders 210 Clinton 26 O’Malley 8 Undecided 459 TOTAL
And this is the SECOND Vote: 232 Clinton 224 Sanders 456 Total
So somehow they lost 3 people but Clinton’s vote went up by 14.
So basically what had happened was Hillary’s team didn’t take the time to do a full recount instead she just added the new people who joined the second vote. Which clearly wasn’t an accurate count.
After the second vote, Sanders supporters contested the totals and demanded another recount.
Caucus Chair Drew Gentsch held a caucus-wide vote on whether to hold a second recount and it was overwhelmingly rejected.
Clinton won.
The website Conservative Outfitters points to another example of potential fraud at the Ames 1-3 site.
Reddit user DBZ5episodesyelling writes, “the organizer there was attempting to lie to voters and stall in a manner that clearly benefited Hillary Clinton.”
According to the Reddit user:
The hall was full to the point where fire regulations were in question. So he announces that we are going to caucus outside. an hour goes by and we’re still sitting.At this point he announces that everyone who is sure of their vote is going to file out the door and tell it to an organizer and then go home. Both the bernie and clinton organizers claim this is incorrect. 45 minutes go by.
At this point many people, most first time caucus goers, were leaving. The man still refused to start counting votes. He claimed everyone could film him if they wished.
I think you all can guess what happens next. People start filming him. Not only does he refuse to go on record, not only does he refuse to state his name, but he attempted to get the (multiple) people filming kicked out because they were “independents”.
Finally a pregnant caucus-goer takes control of the entire situation. The result: 16.1% clinton 84% sanders. If the caucus had been at the correct time, I’m confident it would have been a no-contest sanders victory.
In other words, to the most dishonest, Saul Alinsky-like campaign where the ends justify the means go the delegates.
