the DNC if they thought Bernie might not be the candidate?
Those bringing this lawsuit weren't able to make that case.
"Not one of them alleges that they ever read the DNCs charter or heard the statements they now claim are false before making their donations, Zloch wrote. And not one of them alleges that they took action in reliance on the DNCs charter or the statements identified in the First Amended Complaint. Absent such allegations, these Plaintiffs lack standing.

And it really doesn't make much sense to claim otherwise, outside an attempt to blame a candidate's failed attempt at a nomination on something other than votes.
