The people voted.

Instead you see the numbers...those numbers are there because the Democrats use "super delegates" who are chosen by the party.
They are free to pledge themselves to whomever they choose...regardless of what voters want.

If you look closely at this link: how many delegates does clinton have? - Google Search

You will see on the graph that the light blue shade represents delegates VOTED on by the people.
The dark blue shade represents "super delegates" who are pledged to Hillary in backdoor deals.

That is shady as fuck and is robbing Sanders and the people who voted for him.

To compare...click on the "Republican" tab at the top of the graph. You will see no "Super Delegates" there. Trump is leading with 17 delegates won by getting votes.

That is how democracy is supposed to work.

And not only that...but in the Iowa vote, Clinton and Sanders were tied in 6 districts.
So the Democrat Party decided to flip a coin for each of the 6 districts to award the delegates.
"Magically" Hillary won ALL six coin flips!!!

Am I crazy, or is that pure out cheating by Hillary Clinton and robbing Sanders and his voters?

And the worst part is...this isn't even being brought up on the news.
They are too busy gasping at Trump calling Cruz a "pussy".
Meanwhile...the Democrat Party establishment is fucking over Bernie Sanders and trying to ensure Clinton as the nominee.

Now do you get it?
No I don't get your point. Superdelgates are unique to the democratic party which is why Trump has none. Also, super delegates are legal and a part of the US voting and political process so saying that Clinton is robbing Sanders isn't a true statement I don't think. Interesting though.
