DNC Agrees To Give Voter Data Access Back To Sanders Campaign

[kpete]

UPDATE

A little past midnight Saturday, the Democratic National Committee and the presidential campaign of Bernie Sanders announced that the campaign’s access to key voter data — which had been shut off and was the subject of a lawsuit filed late Friday afternoon — would be restored in the morning.

The statements, however, made clear that the resolution was not a friendly one.

“The Sanders campaign has now complied with the DNC’s request to provide the information that we have requested of them,” DNC Chair Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz said in her statement. “Based on this information, we are restoring the Sanders campaign’s access to the voter file, but will continue to investigate to ensure that the data that was inappropriately accessed has been deleted and is no longer in possession of the Sanders campaign.”

The Sanders campaign statement, on the other hand, declared that the DNC “capitulated and agreed to reinstate” access to the database.

“The information we provided tonight is essentially the same information we already sent them by email on Thursday,” Sanders campaign manager Jeff Weaver said in the statement. “Clearly, they were very concerned about their prospects in court.”

1. Let's see how fast they actually give access. No reason it should take very long.

In fact, Sanders should have it back by now.

4. The loud vigorous response from the Democratic base exposes the lie of Her Inevitableness

All that money spent on polling, and then reality bites the DNC smack dab on the tuckus.

People may dislike Hillary, but they despise DWS.
