    Alright but Hillary Clinton beat Bernie Sanders in the Primary Elections, so the “corruption” you’re referring to is like 30 Million People.

        Yeah, vote totals were like 16 Million for Hillary Clinton and 13 Million for Bernie Sanders. Maybe if more people voted in the primaries we would see Bernie at the helm.

      Yes, because of the “super” delegates which was like 20 people who can automatically outvote the other hundreds of delegates.

        They are talking about popular vote, not how delegates voted. And they voted according to popular vote. Every time.
        I don’t know what will happen if the people will vote differently than delegates would like to, but so far it never happened

        It was real close except for the millions more people who voted for Hillary.

        Edit: sorry for the transparency making it hard to read on dark modes.
