Mysterious coin flips hand Iowa to Hillary

February 2, 2016 By: Stephen Dietrich

Polls showed for weeks that former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders were locked in a tight horse race in Iowa.

But nobody expected last night’s Iowa caucuses to be decided by a flip of a coin — or, more precisely, six very suspicious coin flips.

The race between Clinton and Sanders was the closest in Iowa caucus history, the state Democratic Party said, despite the fact that Clinton had once enjoyed a double-digit lead in the state.

It was so close, in fact, that six delegates were assigned based on coin flips ordered by the state Democratic Party.

Monday in Ames, Davenport, Newton, West Branch, and two precincts in Des Moines, there were six delegates who were not assigned to either Clinton or Sanders under Iowa’s caucus voting rules. The problem, in at least two cases, was caused by caucus goers who mysteriously disappeared throughout the night.

Because the voting was so close between Clinton and Sanders, the state Democratic party ordered that the delegates would be assigned based on coin flips.

Clinton won all six flips — something that only has a 1.56 percent chance of happening — and got all the delegates.

And, unbelievably, that was enough for her to carry the state.

Clinton ended up earning four more delegates overall than Sanders in Iowa (699.57 delegates to 695.49), thanks in large part to some lucky coin flips.

It was a fortunate result for Clinton. And after spending millions trying to lock up Iowa, it looks like Clinton’s road to the nomination began with six quarters — or $1.50.

      I really would like to see the laws that pertain to coin tosses in an election or a caucus. Whatever was the point in having all those people come out if it is so simple as flipping a coin. This is a slap in the face to people who take their voting duties seriously, not to mention the state of our country. Is that how Benghazi was handled? Heads we get our guys out, or, tails we stand down and let them die and blame it on a movie?

        In the famous words of Hilderbeast, “What difference does it make now?” We all know she will lie, cheat and steal to get her way. Force the FBI to take her out.

          if the F B I would do their job, justice is done when they put that Killary Bitch in Prison where she should be ,if they don’t then we know that the F B I is corrupt too ,

            Not the FBI that would be corrupt. It would be the Attorney General and King Obama.

            Whether Clinton is put in front of a jury is up to the AG, Loretta Lynch (but effectively up to Obama). The FBI can only recommend prosecution. According to Sharyl Atkinson, who is seldom wrong, the FBI are convinced Hillary is guilty, and will leak the info if Loretta Lynch refuses to prosecute. On this case, at least, every indication is that the FBI are doing their job. If Clinton doesn’t face jury over this, blame Obama.

          • fred says

            February 3, 2016 at 1:20 pm

            I believe the FBI just presents the findings with perhaps a recommendation. As I understand it is the Obama Justice Department that has to decide to prosecute! Fat chance cap that

          I’m outraged. How can they decide by a coin toss. They should have let the 6 delegates pick their own side not some stupid committeemen deciding to end the tie with 6 coin tosses, and yes I sure would like to see that coin also or the one who tossed it. The odds of that happening 6 times for her are just not right. Something stinks.!

            February 2, 2016 at 7:10 pm

            I have made two headed coins myself. Not hard with a milling machine and some epoxy.

            I call heads every time and win every time…. But that’s only if I want to win every time by cheating. The hell with the odds. Like Hillarious doesn’t cheat or lie! Yeah, sure.

            The voting machines are rigged too, so what do you expect? How do you think we got Obama?

            February 3, 2016 at 5:07 pm

            It sounds like that GB Packer Arizona play off game. The coin toss done by the head umpire never flipped. Everybody saw it. They caught it as it happened and made them do another toss. Sure makes you wonder don’t it? And that was on national tv.

          • Nettie Ferry says

            February 7, 2016 at 1:36 pm

            A “coin toss” ?????????? Cannot be legal ! Why not just do the same for POTUS…only let ME examine the coin…and toss it ! And somebody tell me how many people under investigatio by the FBI would be allowed to run for POTUS ? There is no law in America, anymore.

      • FRED says

        February 2, 2016 at 3:06 pm

        was the toss done in public or behind closed doors !!!!!!!!!!!

        Don’t trust any Clinton. Typical behavior. Delegates disappear in middle of night ?

        • Debbie says

          February 2, 2016 at 5:31 pm

          Where was the toss done?
          Yes what happened to all those people that the Clintons had as close friends at one time? Hmm! All died of suicides or shot to death. Amazing how this is not brought up. They lie and they always will lie no matter what. Just to get their way! Pathetic excuse of mankind.

          • Francis says

            February 2, 2016 at 7:20 pm

            Right on, Debbie.

            The Clintons Lie, cheat, steal, murder and have others murder to get ahead. But does anyone in DC do anything about it? Hell no, the spoiled, politically correct cowards are scared shitless and don’t want to rock their money boat.

            I DID NOT HAVE SEX WITH THAT WOMAN. Don’t wash that dress Monica, it has Bill’s cum on it.

        Why am I not surprised, Hillary was going to win by hook or crook and the flawed Iowa voting process made it easy. Imagine holding back an area of voting that reduced her numbers and still able later to consider it a credit, then Gambling ( coin toss) to break a tie! Further, to ‘disallow’ a ‘recount’ on a virtual tie, in such a close/ unsure race, makes a mockery of the voting system! More power to the Republicans for a fair voting policy that makes sense, on

      @DS: Hey, you wouldn’t expect the Dems to use a “fair” coin, now would you. It’s a lot easier to get a two-headed coin to come up heads, than getting dead people to show up at a caucus.

      • Judith Williams says

        Amen

      • Tomahawk says

        February 2, 2016 at 2:14 pm

        Getting dead people to show up and vote, then leave in the middle of the night is a lot easier than getting them to stick around for the head count. And that coin probably wasn’t a two headed one, either. My guess is it was the other end of the horse.

        • Dr. Ron Corbin says

          February 2, 2016 at 6:06 pm

          ou are right on that. Fox news showed one of the coin flips and Clinton was assigned tails. Fitting, right?

    • Warren says

      February 2, 2016 at 12:30 pm

      I just sat here like a dummy and flipped a coin and with 100 flips never had 6 in a row. Really wasn’t as much fun as I thought it would be.

      Is this how the feeble mind of the DNC could figure as a solution.
      Why not to call these people by phone and ask them to decide, either one of the candidates or neutral, the other choice, they should not be counted.
      But to flip a coin to chose a president is a new novelty DNC invention.

        February 3, 2016 at 3:06 am

        I agree, except I want to know how many people, not associated with the DNC witnessed it, and did the witnesses get to see both sides of the coin, before it was tossed? What is this, a rigged tavern game? First a president without legal, investigated proof of eligibility to even be president, and now a potential president, who has already committed illegal acts that could hurt this nation, not to mention the ambassador she had a hand in being left to die in Benghazi. What are the Democratic party leaders doing, going to the local criminal store to choose a candidate?

    • Dian says

        flipping a coin? for voteing count.? that is a crime in my book. a way of cheating. I hope that is against the law, I believe Hillary would murder to be president.this is where the voters need to step in now and jail everyone who played that coin game. look at all those votes being lost that Sanders is losing. how does he feel about this? crooked as a dogs hind leg,

LEAVE THE DAM VOTES OUT !!! THEY WERE NOT THERE TO BEGIN WITH !!! YOU DON’T KNOW A FIXED VOTE WHEN YOU SEE ONE DO YOU?? LEAVE THE 6 VOTES OUT..SANDERS WINS A CLOSE CONTEST.

      YOU DON’T THINK THEY FIX ELECTIONS..ASK JEB BUSH IF HE REMEMBERS THE HANGING CHAD !!
      THAT IS WHY HE CAN’T BUY A VOTE IN THIS COUNTRY ANYMORE. NEXT TO GO DOWN THAT LYING, BACK STABBING, CLINTON WOMAN WHO SHOULD HAVE BEEN DISBARRED FROM ALL POLITICS FOR PERJURY AND LYING AT THE WATERGATE HEARINGS. LET ALONE HER AS SEC.

        Hey, hey, careful there Bud! I am a woman and have seen through BOTH Clintons and Obama for the lying, self serving pieces of crap that they are. Fully believe that they are also traitors and murders but don’t have the evidence for that but no end of it for the lying, self serving part. Anyone who believes these people have the American peoples’ interests in mind are beyond stupid!

        • Susan Emberton says

          February 3, 2016 at 3:18 am

          Yeah, beyond stupid. Way beyond, probably paid to be way beyond stupid. Paid by the DNC. Isn’t it odd that both O’Bama and Hillary have family connection to George H. W. Bush, who is a republican, but still, I think any of his people are above the law. Let’s face it, G. W. Bush didn’t even show up for his Military job, unless he felt like it. That’s okay, his daddy made it all okay for him. The whole bunch of them makes me sick. I say let’s remove parties from voting, and let the people back the nominee they want, without donating to a party, or having coin tosses for the most important job in this country. We should also have every candidate show publicly, his original birth certificate, or his 2 parents’ birth certificate, to prove eligibility to even become a president of this nation. I want a recount on the coin toss, just for laughs.

      As they said when interviewed, the voters don’t ALWAYS follow the rules to the letter. They sometimes “nudge-nudge” their way to the finish line so, I suspect there was some of that in this case.

    what would you expect from killer Hillery? There is another cloud over her win too. Something about people coming from other places and voting as Iowans who were not eligible to be there.

    • Julie Johnson says

      February 2, 2016 at 12:37 pm

      I heard that a few days ago that she had people from other states come to the Iowan caucus. I even got a letter from her the other day and I am a “Registered Republican”. Not only that I live in Washington State! When it comes to her and her manipulating ways she had a good teacher – or should I say teachers; Bill and Obama. She should not even be allowed to run for office – not with all the drek she’s carrying around with her. But here’s the thing; who are all the people that cast their votes for her and what should their role be in even considering her as a candidate. I guess they can’t get past watching their “cartoons” on TV cause they sure aren’t paying attention to the FBI’s findings. She should be heading for the “big house” – not the WH!

      Make sure that the Demo votes do not total more and 100% of the voters that voted on the Demo ticket. Also check all the sign ins for being legal to vote in Iowa. It will be worth the time to spend.

This is the crap that’s pulled in 3rd world countries.

    This is TOTALLY UNBELIEVABLE!!!! When a judicial person has committed crimes that have put the United States at risk, and also provided help to KILL our soldiers–and She beats another in the state election. That does not say much about our nation either.–If she is elected President, it will just be another Obama in office, an accessary to everything that Obama has also done.–Hey, come on people….do we want that, and everything controled by them again.–FAIR- is FAIR!! We will cheat US too.-no matter the outcome.

      Have you seen a fair election in the past 15 years, or longer? Remember George H. W. Bush’s campaign, where Ross Perot was leading, but suddenly, his family was threatened, and so Perot opted to drop out of the election, to keep his family safe? It was in the news, for about a half second, and then, the story just disappeared. George W. Bush was behind in the polls, and the public’s opinion of him being a spoiled rich kid of the elite. The only legit votes he probably got, were either family, or threatened by family. Gore had all the votes of the republicans I knew. With Hillary and O’Bama having family ties to the Bush family, I’m really not that surprised, that they both get what they want.

    Hey people, this is not an attack on anyone, but FACTS we should consider…; When we have a conidate-whoever it be, if they have commited crimes, played a part in others being killed, sent private emails that could cause the United States to go to War…; is that the one we want in office to represent all of US’?– Tossing coins is not a fair deciding of the nomination. Independant Votes–by individual judgment or decision, not a coin is the only FAIR vote.Some have done everything in a cheating way, and then won, no matter the votes, or thoughts of others.

Is this the kind of person you’….; want to represent YOU, or ALL OF US?– When things go wronge for YOU too, You are also guilty, if you voted for the dishonest person.

    The “Demorat Party” is for Hillary so of course they would come up with a method like “flip a coin”. Of course the old guy would get screwed because he is really an independent not a “demorat”.

    After all the crap Obama pulled, why would anyone want his “puppet” to play at being President .She will just be another lying, arrogant, do it her way, or else. She has failed to tell the truth time after time. I just cannot believe she won the “coin toss”. I feel sorry for America.

  22. J rogers says

    February 2, 2016 at 12:56 pm

    If she only ended up 4 ahead of Sanders with the 6 delegates in the coin flip, it seems to me that Bernie had 2 more than her before the coin flip. So why the coin flip????

    Someone should have called for a coin test before and after the toss such as they do in Vegas with craps. What would have happened if someone had demanded the coin toss continued until the Bernie side of the coin came up. I bet if the coin was tossed a hundred times it would still have come up Hillary on every toss.

    I believe all should vote by a ballot not just the few that can make it to a caucass. Not every one can go and sit there for hours. All should be able to vote for who they want. I really don’t get why anyone would vote for Clinton with all her baggage and especially while she is in the middle of an investigation by the FBI for putting our country at risk and people’s lives as SOS. I think we already know she is going to get in one way or another. You will get what you deserve but unfortunately the rest will get it up their rear ends too.

  35. Rocky says

    February 2, 2016 at 2:03 pm

      No need to call on GOD now. He’s been evicted from this country’s political ring. He was thrown out with the supreme court ruling that GOD has no place in government. Ten Commandments torn down from courthouses, schools, and other Government buildings. Prayer abolished, like tobacco, in public. Would YOU want to help our nation out, if YOU were treated that way. Not me, I’d be in Israel, cause that is about the only place on earth, where GOD is not only accepted, HE’S definitely WANTED there. HE has never been thrown out of Israel. I don’t care what religion you are, if you believe in GOD, and want to be close to HIM, then go to HIS beloved country, and really get to know HIM. While you’re there, get to know HIS chosen people, the children of Isaac. Then you will know real love. Leave this place to Ishmael’s children, cause one of them is already running this place.

Caucases in Iowa, a joke in that they didn’t allow those people a real chance to vote. Captains going around hand counting, putting slips of paper in a popcorn container or a church basket. The American people deserve better. Let’s see how New Hampshire handles the first Primary.

    It is all about political evolution. Years ago according to evolutionists some single cell whatever flipped instead of flopped right out of the primoral soup from which all life came. Now they used a democratic coin that has what ever is needed on either side so when flipped HNH, her majesty Hillary, gets all the delegates . Flops not allowed. Who were delegated by the lead delegater, a delegate of the establishment, to take a dive for HMH? And they worry about voter fraud in other places?

  45. Twanda says

    Who flipped the coin? Perhaps Bernie’s side should have flipped while Hillary’s side was flipping. Then an independent should have also flipped! Wonder what the results would’ve been? The coin should have been examined first, and weighed…….one side could’ve been heavier than the other. Was it flipped and allowed to fall on the floor, or did someone catch it each time he did the flipping? Did one person do all the flipping? No matter how it was done, it was Wrong and unfair to all parties! Was the flipping filmed? Hmmmmmm.
    Flipping might be good………imagine working all week, then the boss flips a coin to determine if you should be paid. How about teachers …….. they could quickly determine all student’s grades by flipping instead of testing, and checking student’s efforts. Perhaps that is how the Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz pres……..made all his flippant idiotic decisions to screw up our country!

  50. Phil Wilson says

    February 2, 2016 at 5:33 pm

    If anyone is curious, the dds of winning all six coin tosses (calculated before the first toss was made) would be about 1 in 63. Not a freakishly rare event, but unlikely enough for reasonable suspicion.
