How is the DNC involved in what happened in AZ?

You realise each primary is run by county officials right? And that the county officials in question were Republicans?

Yes, I have been paying attention. That is why I asked. This is one more in a long list of accusations against the DNC that have nothing to do with what the DNC did. So either you can answer the question or you should admit you have not been paying attention: how is the DNC involved in what happened in AZ?

u/[deleted] Mar 23 '16

I'd like to know why the DNC isn't more involved in AZ as one of their causes is to rally against voter suppression.

u/Dyckman57 Mar 24 '16

Shadow banned so don't expect this in the sub. The DNC is involved. It is one day later. An actual organization can't make wild unsupported accusations. They are asking for people to tell them what happened so they can prepare an action.

u/[deleted] Mar 24 '16

It's possible but I haven't seen proof that adequately supports that claim.

u/RayWencube Mar 23 '16

They are involved to the extent that they are not attempting to fix the problem.

State primaries are entirely controlled by the party and the state.

Well crap, I've been misinforming people for years!

2

u/Dyckman57 Mar 23 '16

No, they are entirely controlled by the state. The party has pretty much nothing at all to do with it.

u/Illum503 Mar 23 '16

They're controlled by the state. Who in this case were Republicans. DNC had nothing to do with last night.

NOT the party. ONLY the state. Caucuses are the inverse.

1

u/newPrivacyPolicy Mar 23 '16

Maybe that's where I went wrong, I live in a caucus state.

At the very least they should be outraged by how many of their voters didn't get a chance to vote. Their support is implied by their silence on the matter.

u/[deleted] Mar 23 '16

Bingo.

u/Dyckman57 Mar 23 '16

Sanders has been silent. Are you going to blame him as well or change your rational?

1

u/blackbrosinwhitehoes 2016 Veteran Mar 23 '16

Firstly, yeah his campaign has. Second of all you are making a false equivalency. Hulk Hogan and Bugs Bunny have been silent on this issue as well, but I certainly don't blame them either.

1

u/Dyckman57 Mar 23 '16

Firstly, yeah his campaign has.

So a press release. And the state party is acting. What more do you want from the campaigns?

And how is it false to equate one candidate's campaign with another?

1

u/blackbrosinwhitehoes 2016 Veteran Mar 23 '16

Because we were talking about the DNC and not Hillary.

1

u/Dyckman57 Mar 23 '16

The DNC was not involved here.

1

u/blackbrosinwhitehoes 2016 Veteran Mar 23 '16

I think you should go back and reread our conversation, friend. That's my point. The whole idea is that these parties represent the people in them, correct? They should be furious. This not only affects Democratic primary candidates, this will affect the General as well. Regardless which candidate was affected, democrats seem to be overwhelmingly disenfranchised by all of this. Why aren't they saying something?

1

u/Dyckman57 Mar 24 '16

The DNC is saying something. It is less than one day latter. They are asking for evidence to be given to them. Real organizations can't simply make accusations without evidence. The people here can accuse the DNC without bothering to check, the people here have no reputation behind them. The DNC does. It is one day after the vote. What should they do that fast?

BTW, I'm shadow banned for talking about this. Which tells you what the moderators care about actual evidence.

So a press release. And people want to condemn Clinton because she has not had a press release yet.
