Okay, I now give you permission to say your thing. Let the binds that shackle this one be broken free.

Yes, Hillary got more votes. Not just delegates, like your cute little chart there shows, but actual individual votes. Amongst DNC primary voters, she was the more popular candidate.

Man, this was your chart. You just had me run around like a service animal to find it for you.
Anyway, I think this quote from this article is pretty funny.

The argument before the court was that legally the DNC could select their own candidate, not that it did. So it woudn’t matter if the allegations were true or not.
The other side argued that since the case went to court, the facts of the case must be “true enough to be heard.” Which is a pretty low standard to clear TBH.
Which may technically true, but does not mean that the DNC prevented Bernie from being their candidate.
Did the DNC select their own candidate? Or did they go with the candidate that their voters selected?
Because by the number, Bernie was short by a few million votes.

I’m sure that if he had won the primary, then the DNC would have backed him against the wishes of their establishment supporting members, doubly so in light of recent events regarding the NYC mayoral race.
