This week on Curmudgeon’s Corner Sam and Ivan talk about Election 2016 of course.

When they do get to the election they cover Trump’s shutout in Colorado, Trump’s general malpractice in delegate wrangling, the odds of a contested convention, the accusations of cheating in both parties, and much more!
