To: The State of Arizona and President Donald Trump
President Obama, what are you going to do about Arizona?
In light of the dismal farce that passed for a Democratic Party primary in Arizona on March 22, 2016, a federal investigation into possible voter suppression will be too little too late. We the people want action NOW. We demand either an open primary re-vote in Arizona on June 7th 2016 at Arizona's expense, OR that Arizona delegates, including the super delegates, do not get to participate in the Democratic Party convention in July 2016.
Why is this important?
The people of Arizona have spoken. Public hearings have fleshed out stories of voter suppression in the form of long lines that people stood in only to leave or never make it to the polling booth, a shut out of "Independent" voters who make up 1/3 of the voting population in Arizona, a willful refusal on the part of The State of Arizona, in spite of many bills introduced, to hold an open primary, stories of 1 polling place for 100,000 students, cost cutting measures on the part of The State of Arizona in the form of an almost 75% reduction of polling places in Maricopa county as compared to the 2012 election, and questionable calling of the winner of the Democratic Party Primary--reports that Hillary Clinton won the primary with 1% of the vote counted and 10's of 1000's of people still in line who hadn't voted yet. Worst of all, the provisional ballots were not counted, and worse yet, The State of Arizona has no intention of counting them. This is not democracy and this will not stand. We The People have spoken and we DEMAND a re-vote at cost to the State of Arizona, or in the alternative, that the delegates, including the super delegates from Arizona, DO NOT get to participate in the democratic convention in July 2016.
