Related: About this forumDid anyone watch last night's closeout coverage at 1 AM?
They were broadcasting from the floor of the Hall and there was a credentialed person waving a JILL STEIN poster in front of the camera.

(1,630 posts)except to challenge the criticism of Stein intruders at our convention. Wrapping an argument in a congratulatory message doesn't change the intent. Stein is our opposition and Dems are right to reject people who are literally promoting her at our convention.

(1,630 posts)in Democratic spaces, the best way for that to be resolved is by addressing that specific issue, which not coincidentally is also the subject of the OP.

No one is fighting the primaries here.. that's over and done with.
This is about getting Hillary elected.. who should be the candidate of everyone who posts on this board now.

(1,630 posts)Some conflate their need to keep fighting the primary with support for GE opposition candidate Stein.

(12,265 posts)We can't have credentialed delegates waving signs for candidates outside of our party. Closed primaries would fix this. If an independent or green party person wants coverage, they need to have a strong candidate and their own party and convention. They can't piggyback on ours!

I wonder if they would appreciate people showing up to protest? Their nomination is Saturday, Aug 6.

That way Jill Stein could hear the voice of the people.
