DNC Chair Donna Brazile confirmed in a Politico article that her predecessor, Debbie Wasserman Schultz, had rigged the 2016 primary.

At the time, activists saw fingerprints of irregularities all over the primary.

  • Large and consistent disparities between how Bernie did in the polls and the official vote count.
  • Consistent bias, dismissing Bernie in the "liberal" press.
  • Vote suppression in university towns, and among the young constituency that supports Bernie
  • in CA there was concerted suppression of independent voters.

Brazile has been no friend of election integrity in the past, and even in this article she writes about Russian hacking--trying to keep Seth Rich's skeleton in the closet.  

But this is an extraordinary admission.  Perhaps this is a door we can keep open long enough to demand evidence about how it was done, and build support for verifiable elections.
