Good Evening!
New York is excited to play a role in the primaries and we’re excited to see them close a few deals! The two leading candidates for each party call New York City home so there’s high hopes on all sides for big surprises. So far, there are a few surprises prior to any results actually coming in. We’re hearing some interesting things about voting irregularities and those colorful New York Politicians.
Have Brooklyn Democrats been kidnapped by Aliens or administrative Hanky Panky?
Mayor Bill de Blasio has ordered the New York City Board of Elections to investigate why more than 63,000 registered Democrats were dropped from the voting rolls since last fall.
The request comes the same day a WNYC analysis revealed the largest decline in active registered Democrats statewide was in Brooklyn. (UPDATE: The New York state Attorney General’s Office is now reporting a spike in problems at polls, particularly in Brooklyn.)
But new data provided by the city Board of Elections on Monday indicates it actually removed 126,000 Brooklyn Democrats from the rolls, according to executive director Michael Ryan.
That includes 12,000 people who moved out of the borough, 44,000 people who were moved from active to inactive voter status and 70,000 voters removed from the inactive voter list.
As a Brooklyn Democrat himself, de Blasio said he’s concerned about the sudden slump of Democrats on the voter rolls there.
“This number surprises me,” said de Blasio, “I admit that Brooklyn has had a lot of transient population – that’s obvious. Lot of people moving in, lot of people moving out. That might account for some of it. But I’m confused since so many people have moved in, that the number would move that much in the negative direction.”
Board of Elections Executive Director Michael Ryan confirmed he had been contacted by the mayor’s staff and he shared with WNYC the same explanation he said he gave them.
“Brooklyn was a little behind with their list maintenance tasks,” said Ryan, who said the other boroughs update their lists on a rolling basis.
That backlog meant the Brooklyn voter rolls needed a major clean up. The board can only remove people from its lists at certain times of year. There are blackout periods that exist 90 days before federal elections.
Ryan said Brooklyn election officials fell 6 months to a year behind updating their voter rolls.
New York Rep. Pete King (R) on Tuesday offered his harshest words yet for Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz, slamming the Texas senator on the day of his state’s primary.
“Well, first of all, in case anybody gets confused, I’m not endorsing Ted Cruz, I hate Ted Cruz, and I think I’ll take cyanide if he ever got the nomination,” King said to open his appearance on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” prompting a mixture of laughs and mild exclamations from co-hosts.The Republican has previously said that he’d “never” vote for Cruz and that New Yorkers considering it “should have their head examined.”“I think you are going to see Donald Trump scoring a big victory tonight,” King predicted Tuesday. “I have not endorsed Donald Trump. In fact, I actually voted by absentee ballot for John Kasich. I’m not endorsing John, but I voted for him to really send a message.”
Michael Bloomberg says there’s a connection between Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump.The two presidential candidates elude facts and attract voters with rhetoric, the former mayor of New York City said at a keynote speech for a Bloomberg Philanthropies summit Tuesday.“I’m not trying to knock Donald Trump, but I do think what you’re seeing in this election, in some cases you argue on the facts, in some cases it becomes a religion — the facts don’t matter at all,” Bloomberg said.“And that phenomenon, I think, is what you see with Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump. It’s the same phenomenon,” he continued. “People are not happy with their government. It has failed them. It hasn’t addressed their needs.”The basic point may not surprise anyone who’s followed the long campaign trail this election season. Sanders, who is seeking the Democratic nomination, has recently been criticized — perhaps unfairly — for failing to correctly articulate the facts behind his views on big banks. The less said about Republican hopeful Trump’s flip-flopping, the better.But Bloomberg wasn’t really talking about the election. The conference Tuesday was a “Summit on Transforming Data Into Action,” and his keynote was meant to illustrate how cities and businesses can harness big data to improve communities and help citizens. Bloomberg’s point was that most people can’t argue with the facts, even if certain leaders might try.
Conservatives/evangelicals: In preliminary exit poll results, evangelicals are in short supply, as are strong conservatives – groups customarily better for Cruz. Evangelicals account for about a quarter of voters in preliminary exit poll results (vs. 42 percent in Wisconsin and 58 percent in all primaries to date). “Very” conservatives account for two in 10 voters, vs. 31 percent in Wisconsin and 34 percent overall.
Wall Street: We’ve noted that more than six in 10 Democratic primary voters say Wall Street does more to hurt than help the U.S. economy; turns out the Street isn’t widely popular among Republican primary voters, either. They divide about evenly on whether Wall Street helps or hurts the economy.
Outsider: Trump may reach a new high on his signature issue: Nearly two-thirds of GOP primary voters in these preliminary exit poll results are looking for an outsider rather than someone with political experience. Outsider voters, a group Trump’s won overwhelmingly in past contests, peaked previously at 61 percent in Nevada.
So maybe Democrats are bit more unified than we thought – at least compared with Republicans.
Eighty-five percent of New York Democratic primary voters in the exit poll say they will definitely or probably vote for Hillary Clinton if she becomes the Democratic presidential nominee.
Just 13 percent of them say they WON’T vote for her.
That’s compared with 26 percent of New York Republicans who say that they wouldn’t vote for Trump if he becomes the GOP nominee.
And it’s also compared with an Indiana exit poll during the height of the 2008 Barack Obama-vs.-Hillary Clinton race, which found 29 percent of Democratic voters saying they would either vote for John McCain or not vote at all.
A few weeks ago, we published a sort of best-case scenario for Sanders in which he wound up with exactly 2,026 pledged delegates, the number he’d need to clinch an elected delegate majority over Clinton. (Leave aside the thorny issue of superdelegates for now.) The path would require almost everything to go right for Sanders — including narrow wins in states such as Pennsylvania and New Jersey, and double-digit wins in California, Indiana and other states.Sanders has had a good couple of weeks, however. He fell only two delegates shy of our path-to-2,026 projection in Wisconsin. He also fell four delegates shy in Wyoming, where his results were disappointing. However, Sanders has gained a few extra delegates at state conventions and from previous states revising their delegate counts as their results became official. Because of these changes, Sanders has kept exactly on pace with the path to 2,026 so far.
Tonight’s task is much harder, however. Our path had Sanders winning New York by a couple of percentage points and netting 128 out of 247 delegates there. Here’s what the rest of his path would look like on the unlikely-but-not-quite impossible chance that he does so:

The most interesting thing I’ve heard from the exit polls is that African Americans are 21 percent of the vote, up quite a bit from 2008.
Wow! Up from 2008! That’s wild!
Well, everyone they interviewed knew of some project Hillary Clinton worked on for New York, even one guy who said he was for Trump acknowledged that the youth service org was built due to then Senator Clinton’s efforts including his job.
Go Hillary GO!

Using what calculations?
Somebody give that Peter King a cap pistol before he wets himself.
You ARE and I AM, we are all part of this Dance tonight.
Polls close!
And Trump wins
Too close to call for Dems
Oops too EARLY not close
I said the same.
Those exit polls are bullshit. No way it’s a 4 point race on the Dem side.
CNN already projects huge win for Donald Trump.
Based on exit polls, Dem side is close 52-48 Hillary.
CNN exit polls show close race Clinton ,52% Sanders48%
Empire State Building lit up RED
First results .3% Clinton 60% Sa nders 40%
I don’t feel good about this.
Link to New York state results by Cong. Dist.

Whoa …looking good for Hil
So far the districts that have come in are mostly Sanders places. NYC and Buffalo will be late.
This is the first time Trump has broken through the 50% mark. It is big for him. I think prior to this, was in Mass. at 49%……….is that right BB?
Sorry, I don’t know. Does that mean he gets all the delegates?
Over 50% in a district means all delegates
Trump is losing Manhattan to Kasich
Is that the trump towers?
Massachusetts was indeed Trump’s best showing to date, and I’m kind of relieved we no longer hold this record. 🙂
I am devouring M and M ‘s by the handfull. I am so nervous about this.
i just made popcorn.
I am celebrating, as I knew Hillary could pull it off with all her work and her belief of “It Takes A Village” to uplift a community and a country.
magic number for Hillary is 56…..then I hit the floor, and roll baby roll.
Fannie, I wish you were here to hold my hand.
Well, hold on, I think Cruz might have something to say.
He might not like me, as his latest hate is that States should have right to ban inter-racial marriages? Rafael Cruz is a Cuban that sees himself as ‘pure white’, and I had seen that early on and always pass on his hate statements to #USlatino w/ #NoVote4Cruz so they know he hates us Brown/Native/Black/Asian and Native Latinos.
Oops meant Mestisos (mixed ) and put Native again.
The prick, he is just telling the good citizens to fuck off.
He’s not likable enough!
CNN still won’t call Hillary Pat, but MSNBC has. Clapping my hands.
I would clap too but I am stuffing my face with cookies!
Wish we could all be in a big circle and hold each others’ hands!
Damn, we all be jumping up to the ceiling, 60.1% …………hell I went with 56%…….over the top, and hit it big time, jump everybody, grab the hands next to you!
Get ready to roll Fannie….☺
I did, I did. What a feeling.
//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js
She will, and CNN is gutless and will not call it.
Hillary is crushing him in the Bronx.
People didn’t take well to the attacks on John Lewis and Dolores Huerta. And it shows!
What is this exit polls are close bullsh*t CNN is peddling? They keep mentioning it, but not showing any numbers.
The general exit poll questions, like whether voters want to continue Obama’s policies or change, looked quite good for Clinton.
I agree. All the Dem exit polling was leaning hard toward Hillary.
They don’t want the audience to shut off the TV.
Good call! Go Hillary

Ha ha! I just posted about the Bronx up above. Sending a message to Bernie bros.
ove the Bronx! They see right through Sanders’ shouting and posturing!
Armando is saying the exit polls don’t look right–could be like Ohio when they were off by 8 or 9 points. Also CNN has diff. numbers from exits than MSNBC.
//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js
I like that Tweet!
24% reporting Hillary has over 100,000 vote lead.
Oh no….Drumf is on screen- thank heavens for mute button!
True that! An invention I give thanks for daily.
https://twitter.com/AlGiordano/status/722598602544001025
What’s not to like in Da Bronx!
Here comes Trump’s Private Army….are you ready? Here he comes, he says.
https://twitter.com/AlGiordano/status/722599622116401152
Wow. 32% of the vote counted already. Still around 60-40.
I am waiting to hear Kasich “declare victory”.
MSNBC calls it for HILLARY!!!!
Yes, they did………they called it while CNN is holding out for the advertisers.
Let’s see how long it takes CNN…. DA FOOLS!
Woo hoo! I’m glad!
//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js
Shake it off, baby, shake it off! Love it!
Hillary winning Brooklyn by almost 20 points. More than 20 points in Manhattan.
Where are all those fucking people who said Bernie was going to win?
They’re off trolling Hillary sites and whining about voter suppression.

Love this wonderful lady!!
She always thanks the voters.
CNN now
CNN PROJECTION: Hillary Clinton is the WINNER.
Finally! Yaaay!
YEAH!!!
Cheers, Sky Dancers!
Hillary Hillary Hillary!!! Rise, Hillary, rise!
Pat – you can relax and put down those M&Ms! 🙂 I can’t wait to see the margins are!
My sisters, my world, she won because our journey has been long, and we carry the load for her here out.
Say it loud and clear my beloved sister!
Singing it with you!
Yes, Sister and AMEN!
Dana Bash grudgingly says, “At this point, give her her due…”
My daughter, the journalism student, is having fits over here.
I was having fits over that, too. Condescending……
Haha! She WON!
I keep saying, Dana Bash is the Eeyore ti Clinton’s Winnie. She can’t say anything, even the rare positive comment, without a severely mournful tone implying impending doom for Hillary.
But the entire CNN bench is pretty vile. Tonight one of them said that the political race, ie delegates, is over with her NY win, now it’s only about tone and Anderson Cooper was genuinely shocked. He was all like “What do you mean the political race is over?!? Do you REALLY believe it’s over?!?” He’s been buying his own baloney for so long!
Anyway! Listening to Hillary appeal to all our best selves gives me joy.
https://twitter.com/AlGiordano/status/722602297667104768
They might as well quit doing exit polls.
Well, lesson for the Bern- blowback equals blowout.
Think he’ll learn?
Nah…..
Non-adaptive thinking- no chance
Damn those platform shoes are tight, I mean tight on my feet.
I couldn’t’ t do that now even if there were a chocolate cake as a prize!
Time for Bernie to go. Let his people keep their $27 rather than waste it on him.
Our girl is going to speak soon. I’m not going to bed until I hear her.
Stupid John King say Hillary won’t have the pleged delegates to win the nomination unless she starts winning big- a**hole!
WTF? 60% to 40% not big enough for him? She’ll win in November and he’ll refuse to believe a woman could do that.
You know they aren’t going to stop, not at all. They are going to crawl on their belly before this is over.
You know, he and why the long face, Dana- Bash- are married.
Their pillow talk is all Hillary hate, all night long.
Hill-A-Ree!
Sounds so damn good.

Exactly.
I’ve been waiting all day to exhale. Pffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff. Yuuuge Win
All the dirty campaigning didn’t help…….So what’s next Birdie?
Even Rachel is,asking that same question. How much harm he is doing to her come the general.
Some of the DNC folks need to talk to him and tell him to cease & desist. There’s no reason for his kind of dirty campaigning except to attempt to make her unelectable. The Party needs to tell him flat out, if you don’t cut this out, we cut you off!! No campaign donations, we will primary you, no committee appointments, no trips, no VIP weekends. If you destroy our candidate, we’ll destroy you!
he doesn’t care, Pat – he’s not a Democrat
And he’s being helped by the right wing.
From the article:
It’s been obvious all along that there has been a considerable amount of ratfucking in the Democratic primary contest.
Yeah all of us picked up on that, Bernie has got to fade away.
//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js
Yes- the conservative side! Lol
Basically only where the most votes are!
She’s only winning in the place where ALL THE PEOPLE ARE!!!
Egads! I forgot, I have to get out my ‘Welcome to the Confederacy’ notecards to send to the voters of NY.
Lol!!
ROTFL!!!! Dixie in the Bronx
Now that’s funny! 😀
The math isn’t working for you Bernie
There’s the Big Dawg!
“Thank you New York!” There,s our Hillary.
She is on fire! Go Hillary!
She looks wonderful, and you can tell she so much enjoys interacting with people. And she finds something diplomatic to say about Sanders’ supporters — doesn’t insult them.
“Actually helping people” that is her mission.
A few pointed remarks about specific plans, not just diagnosing problems.
Equal pay for women.
Sisters!
“Big-hearted, open-minded, hard-working people.”
Wow. Bernie took his ball and went home.
//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js
//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js
Wow!
Game’s not going the way he wants. He’s stomped on the ball and going home.
Bwahahaha!
Yeah, weird, Andrea Mitchell was reporting from Hillary’s celebration and hardly said anything nasty at all. And she was hinting around Sanders decision to dump the press core and most of his senior staff and go home might be him doing some rethinking about the rest of the campaign.
Well he should be doing some rethinking considering he’s dragging a bunch of starry eyed kids down the rabbit hole with him and they’re sending him money just so he can shit it away on rallies. Bernie needs to step back from the abyss before it’s too late and he doesn’t have a career or any respect remaining in the U.S. Senate.
He spoke with local VT press, congratulated Hillary, and said he needed to go home and recharge. He said he would have more tomorrow.
He needs to rest his voice before doing more shouting.
Maybe he sprained his wagging finger.
Lol.
Well he’s home at last, now he and Jane have time to locate their tax returns and release them. Complete returns, not summaries.
Reminding people of her accomplishments, the Children’s Health Initiative, and how she will build on that in programs on the national scale.
“We are a compassionate country”
I love this woman!
“Remember….it’s not whether you get knocked down. It’s whether you get back up.”
NW Luna,
Added your quote above to the tweet below! Go Hillary GO!
.@HillaryClinton : To the VOLUNTEERS TY… “Remember….it’s not whether you get knocked down. It’s whether you get back up.” <- 👏👏👏 #HillYes
This is what Hillary often says that her mother told her. Wish she was here to see her daughter shine so brightly after a rough fight.
Yes.
One of the first things I thought about was Hillary’s mother and how proud she would have been of her daughter. I know Hillary is likely thinking about her too. No matter how old we get, now matter how long they’ve been gone, we always think in terms of pleasing our parents.
Now a story about the daughter of the principal who was shot and died at Sandy Hook school. Talks about the need for common sense gun laws.
So, much for they hate the ‘establishment’?
Do you think he lost it or just acting and in denial?
Weave & Devine sooooo need that $800,000 plus they bill Sanders each month. C’mon kids, we need you to keep sending in $27. Every few minutes.
Thank you New York for giving us the gift to fight on. The leaves are sprouting, and spring has sprung, let’s never forget, Bella Abzug……………she spurred us on. She surrounded us with laws that became our waterfalls, her fierceness was like a mountain lion, and we circle our arms and hear Hillary roar with her words. Let’s sing, let’s dance, as I am , and you are.
Thanks for reminding me. 😉
I was a young woman back when I watched her, and together we grew. Hillary is our anchor now, it’s been a heavy journey. Truly wonderful tonight.
Whatever c*%p tomorrow brings, it really does feel like a load off tonight. I can exhale. I’m enjoying my (southern) Democratic corporate whore w/ tortillas and green salsa. Its a good night!
Cheers!
Dinner’s ready, have a good night.
Back atcha!
Oh Fannie, so beautiful.
🙂
I just checked FB and the Bernie supporters are either saying that there was voter cheating in NY or that Bernie had a steeper climb, but that it was still “doable.” And these 2 are intelligent people…it just doesn’t compute in my little brain.
It’s over for the bros. It’s been over since middle of March.
Oy
Oh and BTW the Bern outspent Hillary by over $2,000,000. Return on investment not so good for him☺
Funny, all that big money Hillary has …. Ooops!
Omg Mouse! You slay me!
I love the visuals
Big win! Really important because we get many delegates, and because the popular vote margin and percentages are so strong. Hillary sounded great. People of New York came through! This was a very crucial stage, and now we can look forward to doing well next Tuesday, and then consolidating for a bit. Always a battle, but this was a very gratifying evening for us.
Bernie cut the traveling press loose tonight and he and Jane returned home to Vermont, alone. Bernie, use your head man! THE HORSE IS DEAD, quit beating it.
G’night ladies and gents…it has been a loooong day, albeit a very wonderful day.
PEACE
Good night!! We will all have sweet dreams of madam President!
Good night all- it was great to share this great night with you.
That was weird wasn’t it? And they can get those tax return copies now!
Heh. Even the Guardian accepts the reality.
http://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2016/apr/19/hillary-clinton-wins-new-york-primary-bernie-sanders
Good night all, sweet dreams, Madame President-to-be is on her way to victory!
Good night, Luna. Good night to all my sisters and brothers; what a wonderful night this has been.
Now, this old Whore’s got to drag herself to bed.
I was so nervous about this that I woke up at 5 AM, and just stayed up. I will finally be able to sleep tonight. The news media were even relatively nice to Hillary today; although I imagine it will go back to their usual tone tomorrow.
Then we can worry about whom we want to face. Trump is frightening, but I guess it would be better to just go against him. then risk the chance that somehow the Republicans choose Kasich. Hillary does very well when she can contrast her Democratic views with those of Republicans. If things break well, we might even with the Senate back. Nice things to think about, anyway. After the last few weeks, this evening was much needed!. And of course the moral support here helps as well.
http://huffingtonpost.com.co/following-ny-loss-bernie-plans-get-out-of-race/
Hope this is true.
Yeah, I’ve been thinking that he’ll probably drop out after the primaries on Tuesday. It’s the only way he can hope to preserve his legacy and standing with the Democrats, and to get a chance to speak at the convention.
Also hope it’s true. He’ll attempt do it in some face-saving way, which is fine by me. The less drama and trauma the more likely some disappointed Bernie supporters will be able to get on the Democratic band wagon. Of course there will be the hard core, and, admittedly, I was there eight years ago. I’m ready to be relieved, when he’s out and shun any gloating. We’ve got a bigger race to win.
Note the .co after the .com I think that’s a phony site. Darn it.
Yup
I was wondering why there was no author listed on the piece.
Morning folks! I think Bernie’s abrupt departure for Vermont without his aides/press team says a lot. Anyway this link to BNR is legit:
http://bluenationreview.com/mixed-messages-from-senior-bernie-aides/
I think it’s possible Bernie could end up doing the right thing. It destroys his legacy not to.
He’s just going back to the mother ship to recharge his anger, lies, and ego with his enabler. That’s my working hypothesis anyway.
LOL! I’m counting on his instincts for self-preservation at this point. The handwriting is on the wall.
He’s been doing a destruct job for enough months now. As are his supporters He will come out damaged.
IMHO The Bern needs to pivot toward the Republicans and turn his righteous fire on Drumf and Crudez. Fire up his supporters without bashing Hillary. Then he MIGHT win some respect.
Rats!
Happy to welcome any Berners except Sarandon and Dawson. They can kiss my a- oh alright, them too!
I just got my latest issue of Better Homes and Gardens and there was Sarandon in a L’Oreal ad right at the beginning. UGH. I have such negative feelings about her now. L’Oreal needs to ditch her if they want Hillary voters to buy their products.
This is a riot.
According to a new book, Bernie was kicked out of a hippie commune in Vermont because he spent too much time sitting around talking about politics and distracting other members from their work.

Congrats to Secretary Hills!!! I couldn’t be happier. I noticed how the pundits keeping mentioning that she really worked hard in New York. She always works hard. She never takes anything for granted. She never has. She is the hardest working woman in poli-business. She is the James Brown of electoral politics. 😊 Talk about entitlement is nonsense.
CNN idjits covering primary results last night were oohing and aahing over how Bernie – at his age – flew back from Rome and hit the campaign trail and did this and that – blah blah blah. My first thought was – well he flew back in a privately-chartered jet where I’m quite sure he got plenty of sleep.
Hillary literally defines Energizer-bunny.
Flying around on a chartered jet with fancy meals, then standing up and rattling off your standard stump speech? That’s a low benchmark. Hillary had to salsa dance, play — and win – dominos, talk intelligently in small groups with all sorts of people, and do it with far less campaign $$ than Bernie. She did it all with grace, style, and compassion. And won!
Treasury announced today that Harriet Tubman will be on the $20.00 bill!!!
That’s wonderful! Time for Andy Jackson to GO!!!!
Glad they announced today, too. I’m feeling so happy I could bust!
Wow! Can’t wait until my ATM is spitting out those twenties!!!! Oh, 2030 at the earliest. Will we be using paper money then?

Nice! Very powerful.
The Bern’s only one sentence in Hillary’s AIPAC speech concerns Palestinians rated “mostly false” by Politifact. http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/2016/apr/20/bernie-s/bernie-sanders-says-hillary-clinton-had-one-line-p/
Bernie is so tiring. Fact checking him is so much work. Proving him mostly false is relatively easy though.
Then they go on to quibble that it’s only “Mostly False” instead of “False” because she also talked about a lot of other things and focused more on Israel. I would call his statement plain “False.”
