North Carolina ‘superdelegate’ Pat Cotham endorses Sanders for Democratic nomination

[TexasTowelie]

Now that Hillary Clinton has become the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, North Carolina “superdelegate” Pat Cotham has decided to endorse ... Bernie Sanders.

Cotham, a Mecklenburg County commissioner and a member of the Democratic National Committee, said she and her fellow Democrats have underestimated Donald Trump, the Republicans’ presumptive nominee. And in most polls, Cotham said, Clinton “is not as strong” against Trump as Sanders is.

Cotham joins DNC member Jake Quinn of Asheville as the state’s only superdelegates who have endorsed Sanders.

“Yes, (Clinton) did carry North Carolina,” Cotham said, “but there should be a nod to all the people (in the state) who voted for Sanders.”

3. Since my vote for Bernie was stolen in NC

by a corrupted voting machine, it's good to see some sense in one of my politicians.

4. It wasn't just in NC.

Some Superdelegates will be looking to have it both ways now that the heat is off, after the fact.
