Breaking Democratic News: It’s Great Start

August 25, 2018 By: Juanita Jean Herownself Category: Uncategorized

The DNC is meeting this weekend in Chicago.  Something good came out of it.

The Democratic National Committee voted overwhelmingly on Saturday to limit the role of superdelegates in choosing the party’s presidential nominee, moving to heal internal divisions that emerged during the bitter 2016 primaries.

The reform, adopted by DNC members at their summer meeting in Chicago, will bar superdelegates – lawmakers, former presidents and other party dignitaries – from voting during the first ballot of the nominating process.

Some delegates voted against it, saying “it would disenfranchise party leaders.” And they said that like it’s a bad thing.  I think that’s the whole point. Party bosses have missed the boat and it’s time to return the party to the people.

Well done, DNC. Now quit sending me three damn emails a day asking for money.
