*West Virginia Democrats Call for Resignation of DNC Chair*, End to Super Delegates, The Hill, Sat. June 11, 2016.

West Virginia Democrats joined in on a call to end the role of unbound super delegates in the Democratic primary process and also showed support for the resignation of Democratic National Committee (DNC) Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz. According to reports from the state convention Saturday, delegates passed a resolution urging the DNC to eliminate the "un-democratic and un-American" role of super delegates or bind them to the results of states' primaries by 2020.
A resolution from a group of Democratic presidential candidate BERNIE SANDERS DELGATES that calls for the resignation of Wasserman Schultz — arguing that she has harmed the party by creating distrust in the process and failing to turn out voters — also passed. The resolutions are non-binding, and it is ultimately up to the national party to make any changes to leadership or the process. Wisconsin Democrats passed a similar resolution in favor of abandoning super delegates last weekend. http://thehill.com/blogs/ballot-box/283163-wv-dems-call-for-resignation-of-dnc-chair

Chuck Todd asked her about remaining as DNC Chair until Nov.? Answer, affirmative; If she could run better for her FL seat if Not Chair? gobble reply. Finally he questioned if her position was a 'bargaining chip for Bernie Sanders?', same gobble no real response.
Much talk about her charity fundraiser ball game tmrw. She seemed unusually cheerful and nervous.
