Voting Rights Denied: California Democratic Primary

This article was written by Ladessa Sullivan.

REFUSED THE RIGHT TO VOTE IN CALIFORNIA DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY

“A friend and I who reside in California both went to vote early morning on Feb 5th and because we are registered as “Independent” we were refused a Democratic ballot, even though we requested one several times and contested their refusal. We were told we could not vote in the democratic primary because we are registered as Independent. They even proceeded to look it up in some kind of rule book that they neglected to show to us in order to prove that they were right. We issued complaints on our own accord, because we had suspicions of fraud regarding this matter. We found out later that our suspicions were correct and we were far from alone.

We feel this was done on purpose because Barack Obama was said to receive much of the independent vote. We will not stand for this kind of blatant fraud at such an important time. No one thought that something like this could occur in California, but it did.

This has gone on for too long, and it’s ridiculous that in a powerful & sufficient country that we cant get our voting systems in order. If something like this could conveniently happen in California then it could happen anywhere, and it has happened in the most important elections that have cost us dearly for years to come, such as the infamous problem in Florida. A state that just happened to be governed by George W. Bush’s brother.

California was said to be the most important state to win in this recent Democratic primary, with a substantial amount of delegates. We want to know who is behind this misinformation that led to our voice being stolen from us.

Hillary Clinton has been declared the winner of California but not fairly by any account. Independent voters like my friend and I were refused the right to vote in the Democratic primary, and many if not most of those voters were Barack Obama supporters according to the polls.

Please report on this important issue. Pass it on. We are not alone. All of the fraud and complaint lines in California have reported a high number of people complaining about this same issue.

They have told me that unfortunately the election is over so it is too late, but to prevent this from happening in the future I should continue to talk about this issue.

I told them that what we do today affects what we can do tomorrow. “Now” is of the most importance. “Now” will decide who will be the president for the next 4-8 years. As we have seen with George W. Bush, who we select today can cost us heavily for years to come, and that effect many times surpasses the presidents term; Just ask all of the people who can’t bring their friends and family back from the grave because of this war. Just ask the people who have lost their homes to foreclosure.”

PLEASE REPOST THIS BULLETIN. WE CAN’T BE COMPLACENT ABOUT THESE MATTERS. OUR CHILDREN’S CHILDREN WILL THANK YOU FOR IT.
