Does anyone here actually believe that DNClinton does not have full access rights to Sanders' data?

Because if you actually believe that nobody working for Clinton's campaign (read: the entire DNC and the vendors who supply all their software) has any access to Sanders' campaign data, I have some scary WMDs I would like to sell you.

And given that the vendor says saving data is impossible, yet that's what DWS says the Sanders campaign did, it needs to be a third-party audit.

Well, of course we're going to believe whatever assists us in rationalizing as righteous and just any action of candidate A, while justifying as being in on a conspiracy should it happen to candidate B.

If we hold both candidates to the same standards, our biases will be illustrated to be just that... and we simply cannot allow that to happen, and so must hold to pretense and illusion.

The difference is, all logs show that only one campaign accessed the data and stole it.

The Clinton campaign did nothing during that 40 minute window, unlike the Sanders campaign.
