They stood strong against the sneaky cheating tactics for which a certain candidate has become known.

Puedo means 'I can.'

So, "Si se pudo" could be translated as "Yes, it was accomplished."

11. The Sanders camp engaged in voter supression by requesting that only about 400

polling places would be available to vote. this resulted in 2 to 4 hours wait to vote. As you can imagine, this was particularly trying on the elderly, disabled, and people who needed too get to work, IOW, Hillary supporters.

But the dirty trick didn't work. She is completely crushing him. Sad thing is that her numbers would have been even bigger without the Sanders camp voter suppression!

That was their reasoning, and it caused so much difficulties for Puerto Ricans to vote...but they did. The turnout was bigger than expected!

I take it you're from PR? The people of PR indeed stood strong and thwarted the cowardly, sneaky tactic from the Sanders campaign.

instead of poor planning by the campaign. It was all the Democratic party DWS establishment oligarchs 1% fault! And the media's for pointing out the fact that there was no sign.
