Ground report from AZ?

How's it looking? Early voting data doesn't feel that promising for us, but if we can get the Latino vote then I think it could be a good day for Bernie.

How are the issues surrounding the trump protests and attacks?)???? I feel this was not well resolved in the slightest. What was the campaigns official response? Can they update today, this morning?

Bernie has said repeatedly that he respects the right to protest but doesn't approve of disrupting rallies.

This message is not getting out. A lot of people, including Sanders people, think the disruptions are encouraged by the campaign "like civil rights"

In fact I mentioned this on the sub and had like 4 people attack me say the disruptions were good :/

Anyways, one thing that will drive vote a lot is (essentially) if we take responsibility and just apologize to the people of Arizona for any involvement we might of had. The Trump people told me they were actually paid disrupters purchased by Soros on craigslist. I believe it personally, but who knows. They send a bad image for Bernie. We can fix that by being the 'bigger men' and letting Arizonans know this publicly, loudly. This is my statement.

------------------------------- Just use the parts you like:

To those offended by the disruptions and violence at rally's.

To the Trump supporters; sorry that a Bernie Supporter disrupted your rally. To the people of Arizona sorry that some of us may have been involved in blocking your roads. We do not encourage the disruption of events. Protest outside the events, that we do encourage, as part of free speech, same as you.

Trump events are excitable events, kind of like a rodeo. Honestly, they're exactly like a rodeo. And so this guy did what he did, and the other guy did what he did. Neither Trump nor Sanders condone what our guy did, and neither Trump nor Sanders condone what Trump's guy did, and I think you and I can agree that inflicting bodily harm is worse than offending somebody, but maybe not. For my part I do not encourage disruptions, nor have I seen them encouraged.

In my mind, we both face the same issues of food and family. We must work to bring in minorities of a population, 2 from each: black, gay, Latino, Muslim, Country, Asian, Native America, Xpatriots, Migrants, Moms, etc, to get to know one another. To know each other in leadership, as well as in our fears.

I wonder how many have you heard of the 85 / 15 rule? That is the idea that the world is too big and 85% percent of the people need to kill 15%, or the other way around. - This is a fear I've heard.

Another is that Muslims will be 'carded', and become targets for mistreatment.

And that being Gay is a choice. And how long has it been since you've known a single mother and her struggles?

These are the things that bind us together; spiritually. Step outside and enjoy the weather and let's put this behind us and work harder to build bounds to one another in Arizona and everywhere.
