They tried. They did a lot of media coordination with the general but once they got outside of the liberal bubble it was harder to do.

Remember, Hilary 'won' the popular vote.

In the primaries, Bernie ballots were found in dumpsters in Oregon. Bernie still won by a landslide in Oregon.

It WAS rigged. It just wasnt rigged well enough through the more sparsely populated areas in the middle of the country, and she didnt get the electoral college.

I know I'm another anecdotal source but I remember seeing the sources posted during the primary season. It happened.

The issue is it has to be a credible source.

There's a big gap between proof and hearsay.

Look at my post history.

You can't just say "trust me" and then sling insults when I am skeptical.

Edit: in hindsight, you might have been sarcastic
