There doesn’t seem to be much unity in the comments being released by Democratic National Committee leadership in light of claims that the 2016 primary was “rigged” in favor of Hillary Clinton.
At issue are the joint funding agreements signed by the presidential campaigns for Clinton and Sen. Bernie Sanders, which allowed whoever won the nomination to take control of the party.
According to an account from former interim DNC chairwoman Donna Brazile, Sanders’ campaign had ignored it while Clinton’s campaign had exerted control over the party before she had won the nomination.
