I encountered what I suspect was a dark money operative

[IbogaProject]

I was out shopping on 6th Ave in Chelsea and some guy was asking if people were NYC Democrats with a signature board. I asked him what issue was his candidate for. He said it was to get a set of 'delegates' to the convention. I asked 'delegates for whom?". And he said 'Marianne Williamson'. I was pissed off, that smells like some kind of dark money highjinx to me.

1. well, she doesnt seem to have a clue how the process works, so...

signatures to get on the ballot =/= delegates. but maybe their game is to pick up enough delegates to start shit at the convention.
all these losers to b r getting dark money.

2. I just said "she isn't a Democratic Party Member" and walked away

I had zero interest in arguing or discussing with a paid operative, even if wasting his time would have helped a little, he didn't have signatures on there so I think our cohort was holding out.

3. Pretty sure she's been a registered Dem since 2019.

She registered as one about the time she started running in the 2020 primary. She was an independent prior to that. I haven't seen anything indicating that she's reverted back.
