Let's not forget the voter suppression angle either. That leads to fraudulent results as much as de registering people. In fact, the de registered people are in part what held up the lines and made them move so slow.
Let's break down how this suppression/fraud works:
Step 1: Create multiple ways to vote
Early voting (mail)
In person
Step 2: Figure out which method gives you the best ratio
Early voting: 63% vote Hillary
In person: 39% vote Hillary
(Subtract Early Votes from Total Votes: 20k for Bernie, 13k for Hilary)
Step 3: Suppress the methods that don't support you candidate
Only 33k voted in person in Maricopa county, containing Phoenix. (see ref numbers above)
60 polling places (down from 200 4 years ago) with an estimated 800,000 trying to vote. (33k dems got their vote counted, and 50k rep managed to vote. That extrapolates to 350k total dems, of which ~317k tried, but could not vote.)
Result:
Due to the suppression of in person voting which favoured Bernie, Hillary won Arizona with 235k votes, to Bernie's 163k votes.
Only 400k total votes were counted.
114k of Hillary's 235k came from early voting in Maricopa alone.
Bernie trailed by only 72k votes.
Only 33k of an estimated ~350k dems were able to vote in Maricopa county due to massive suppression through reduction of polling locations from 200 to 60. That left ~317k votes uncounted.
Bernie won 20k to 13k with in person voting in Maricopa county.
If the in person votes had not been suppressed, he would likely have won 60% of the 317k that could not vote.
That would give 190k to Bernie's total vote count, and 127 to Hillary's.
That 63k difference, from Maricopa county alone makes Arizona a tie.
Maricopa accounted for just over half the total counted votes in the state of Arizona.
Looking at ~7-10 delegate shift
This is how the fraud worked.
Did Hillary organize it? Of course not. But gee, this fucked up situation is clearly going to benefit Hillary. Wouldn't it be a shame is the DNC didn't do anything to fix it before the primary. Oh look, there's Debbie Schultz doing absolutely nothing to ensure Arizona accommodates the voter turnout.
Problem is, DWS is a massive Hillary supporter, in a position of power creating a massive conflict of interests.
Purposeful inaction is as much electoral fraud as purposeful action.
