Wassermen Schultz "Concerned" After Nevada Democratic Party Files Complaint Against Sanders Campaign

[Purveyor]

Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz said Tuesday that she was “deeply concerned,” after receiving a complaint from the Nevada Democratic Party regarding the actions of some Bernie Sanders supporters on Saturday at the Nevada Democratic convention.

“We are deeply concerned about the troubling details laid out in the letter from the Nevada Democratic Party,” Wasserman Schultz said in a statement. “We will be reaching out to the leadership of both of our campaigns to ask them to stand with the Democratic Party in denouncing and taking steps to prevent the type of behavior on display over the weekend in Las Vegas. Our democracy is undermined any time threats, intimidation, physical violence or damage to property are present. If there are legitimate concerns, they must be addressed in an orderly, civil and peaceful manner.”

The DNC party chair was reacting to a complaint filed on Monday by Bradley S. Schrager, general counsel for the Nevada State Democratic Party. Schrager wrote that Bernie Sanders supporters have a penchant for “actual violence,” and said that they were continuing to harass Roberta Lange, the chair of the Nevada State Democratic Party.

The Nevada Democratic convention was shut down on Saturday at the Paris Las Vegas hotel because security staff said at one point that they could no longer ensure order.

7. This is the first step in preventing Sanders delegates from being seated at the National Convention.

First they'll express concern.

Then they'll issue warnings.

Next they'll issue a final ultimatum.

Finally, they will issue the ban, thereby ensuring a serene, placid, coronation. (At least inside the convention.)

How will they do it? They'll find a reason. They'll find an incident. Even if they have to create the incident themselves.

9. Debbie should be deeply concerned that many of us are going to resign from the party.

She should be deeply concerned that everybody i know here in Florida will be voting for Bernie - whether filling in a box, or writing in his name.

10. Wasn't the Minority Report Sent to the DNC

Did Debbie mention whether she was concerned about what was in that report?

[oldandhappy]

11. hilarious

Now she is concerned, but not about the manipulations in previous states.

[B Calm]

14. It's all in their plan to paint Bernie Delegates as the disruptors in preparation for the National

Convention. This whole primary is a sham!
