Until the errors that disproportionately affected Bernie are corrected, as far as I’m concerned, Bernie won. Not to mention, the NATIONAL delegate allocation will be the same for both (not the county, or the state delegates). The national delegates are what matters for the nomination and that’s that.

The Democrats celebrating this "win" which is actually a tie at this point are the same ones crying about Hillary winning the popular vote and not being president.

It'll be interesting to see how this plays out with Bernie officially saying that the published data is incorrect. This may be polarizing.

Call me cynical but this is the kind of thing that could divide the party and make a win in the general election impossible. Bernie certainly has the right to point out errors in the data that hurt his campaign, and in theory this is something that is important for our democracy. I worry however that this might get a little petty considering it's over such a small margin, that they're already tied where it counts, and also because the correction of such errors would not change that.

I know it's not over but I just want to say now that we're at 100% reporting I feel like I've survived something. :air: Whether we always agree or not thanks for making it a hell of a ride. :ally:

They... didn't correct several outstanding, confirmed data entry errors.

This is, YET AGAIN, irresponsible and clearly a media narrative grab that they are doing on purpose - the DNC, not necessarily the IDP.

The NYT did an entire article on these errors and pointed out several.

And they said "**** them" and did this anyway.

Well, now we know what we are up against - election rigging :rip:

The party is the entity at fault. They supposedly took days to release the results and the results are still somehow erroneous. If this was work in corporate America someone would be fired and filing for unemployment. This is our democracy and considering the fact that CNN declared Pete the winner in error means that he’s its a problem. 

Also, the fear of the party not uniting is ridiculous. Everything that has happened the entire primary is tepid compared to the things Obama and Hillary said to each other and Obama won by a landslide. Stop with the “the divisiveness is going to let trump win.” No, the nominee needs to be ready and battle tested because their record is available for the GOO in the general regardless if the democratic candidates attack them on it or not. Better for the eventual nominee be used to the attack and have an answer for them than to be blindsided in the general election.

They don't want Bernie to win so badly that they will let other candidates claim victory... Because we LOVE democracy over on the Democratic side.

Tom Perez is playing with fire and risking losing to Trump to deny Bernie a victory.

It is disgusting. He needs to resign.

If any of y'all ever try to come at me about democracy again, I will clock you for this blatant corruption that you are willingly ignoring because it supports your #fave

We ain't playing games here :rip: This is a presidential election, not a soap drama or a pop girl album survivor.
