Amid growing reports of irregularities in the Iowa Democratic caucuses, Bernie Sanders's presidential campaign said late Thursday that the state party had rebuffed its initial requests for paper records tallying the votes in each precinct that were used to determine Hillary Clinton's narrow victory.

I'm pretty sure that Clinton made sure that anything proving election fraud would never see the light of day. $$$ talks.

I heard this before, that the Dems have no way to verify their votes.

Doesn't make sense to me, if they first vote on paper. Maybe there is so much horse trading going on they don't even know when all is said and done. Especially when they have to use a coin to flip for the delegates.

Bernie had better shut up. Otherwise Bubba and Shrill will call in some old friends from AK.

LOL...did you read those stories by his AK henchmen? I believe a lot of it. It's amazing what politicians get away with.

If I were an Iowa democrat, I'd be very upset at this revelation.

This is the same guy who got booted off the stage by a couple rabble rousers. He's built to be taken advantage of.

What the hell is he expecting?

I mean she won by flipping a coin.

Of course the DNC said no to Sanders, there is no "paper trail" to start with!
