    –Three counties in California have flipped in favor of Bernie Sanders in the California primary election when additional mail-in ballots were counted.

    Large scale media outlets such as NBC and ABC are reporting that Clinton now has enough delegates to win the Democratic nomination, however Sanders’ reportedly said in a statement, “Secretary Clinton does not have and will not have the requisite number of pledged delegates to secure the nomination. She will be dependent on superdelegates who do not vote until July 25 and who can change their minds between now and then.”

    Presidential candidate Donald Trump has a substantial lead on the competition in the Republican primaries state wide, with 74.7-percent of the votes. Trump received 74.6-percent of the votes in the county.

    He is a sore loser and could hurt the democrat party. He is not a democrat.

    If the upcoming Wikileaks revelations do lead to Secretary Clinton's indictment/withdrawl Senator Sanders will make a fine Democratic President. . .especially with Senator Elizabeth Warren as his Vice President and successor !

    Bernie has also been fighting for the people his entire political career. While Hillary on the other hand has been doing whatever it takes to further her own career, and that is usually at the cost of the people and the nation as a whole.

    Sanders has been cheated this whole time. He is not a sore loser — he's a fighter who wont accept government corruption.
