I love this stuff ... statistics ... there were 6 coinflips for delegates and HRC won all of them ... reminded me of this scene from Dumb & Dumber: https://youtu.be/KX5jNnDMfxA
Hillary has always had amazing good luck. Remember that $100,000 profit on her cattle futures trades? "In a Fall 1994 paper for the Journal of Economics and Finance, economists from the University of North Florida and Auburn University investigated the odds of gaining a hundred-fold return in the cattle futures market during the period in question. Using a model that was stated to give the hypothetical investor the benefit of the doubt, they concluded that the odds of such a return happening were at best 1 in 31 trillion." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hillary...
The six precincts decided by coin toss pales to insignificance when you find that after Sanders asked for the raw vote counts, he was informed those numbers were "missing" for 90 precincts!
What was also interesting is that initially, Hillary instructed several of her delegates to side with Martin O'Malley to attempt to give him some legitimacy. When it turned out that she couldn't afford to lose the delegates, they had to switch back!
Now I understand why I don't understand. That is probably the biggest mashup of "Gladiators vs Godzilla and Mothra" ever to make it to the big screen. Now we know why the Obamanations foreign policy and everything else is such a mess.
Without the true numbers we have no way of knowing but it looks like the Democrats stayed home voting for None of the Above which in their case is a brilliant idea.
A open socialist and a communist went to Iowa, flipped for who was who - and we`re surprised it was a dead heat? Wanna bet ol Hill kept the coin?( for the payphone in prison)
What interests me the most about this is that Bernie's Bots are not buying it. Things on the Marxist side of the aisle could get awfully amusing awfully quickly.
It's funny, when I read that allegation at first, as a hardcore RPG'er, I was like "eh, I've hit that lucky-shot before, and I will probably do it again, just not going to hold my breath for it." :-)
hehe..me too. I have a set of dice my gaming friends refuse to allow me to use for character generation. They convinced themselves I could control them mentally or something.
You would think this would be such a debacle as to illustrate the whole futility of trying to elect anyone anymore. And we haven't even gotten to the really dirty parts where the electoral machines come up Dumbocrap, even when Republicrap is selected (remember the video from his Lord and Majesticnesses last triumphal win?). Reminds me of the election in Little Polk County Oregon, where the upstart Republcrat new guy breathing fire was going to slay the evil incumbent establishment lord, only to go from winning by 108 votes, and after 5 or 6 recounts, we reached a much more accurate (and acceptable) 6 votes for the incumbent. Who also was the County Clerks boss. Vote by mail is a honest as an Iowa Democrat Caucus.

The game is rigged from the beginning.

They will just maintain that they were cheated....no matter what.
Considering the two sides in this dispute it's a bit of the pot calling the kettle black.
