(6,344 posts)Many of the elected Dem officials in my State (not all) are superD's for HRC.
I have been contacting them to switch because our state voted for Bernie.

(20,174 posts)than vinegar. My guess is that the vast majority of her supporters signed up before Sanders was considered a viable candidate. Some may have supported her in 2008. I think your best chance of flipping anyone is to write the SDs in states where Bernie has already won or had a strong showing. The members of Congress who voted against the Iraq Resolution may be possibilities as well.
Contact the SDs that are not yet committed and state your case for Bernie. There are over 200! It seems to me that if they were going to support Clinton they would have commited by now. See the full list of SDs here:

The list isn't perfect. They have DWS and Donna Barzile as "uncommitted" LOL.

(812 posts)Fuck That Shit! Being "nice" gets us absolutely nowhere.
The whole Dem party did throw in for her early, following the DNC's lead. And it's a stupid-ass loser strategy, just like just about everything else they do. DWS' track record is abysmal, and the fact that anyone still listens to her makes exactly as much sense as anyone paying attention to the Repubs.
Bernie just won my state (WA) by a huge margin. 2/3 of the supers are in for Hillary. Yes, I encourage writing them. My message is that they do the right thing, or I will actively campaign against them when it's their turn.
Here's a MoveOn petition for WA. There are probably ones for many other states as well.

(4,775 posts)My corporacrat Rep. Jared Huffman has stated he will vote for Hillary. This is probably one of the most progressive and pro-Bernie districts in the nation (CA 2nd district, along the coast from Marin to Humboldt), and the well-funded more corporate Huffman defeated uber-progressive Norman Solomon, I think that was in the 2012 election.
There is absolutely no way a representative from this district should be committed to Hillary, it's extremely pro-Bernie here. Huffman would be a great person to lobby for changing his vote, and his job should depend on his vote reflecting the views of his voters.
I sent him an email using the link below urging him to vote how his constituents vote, and I hope others in his district will join me. It's a little weird, the contact form only gives you certain choices for the contact's subject. I chose "voter's rights", not at all an exact match but the closest I could find. I have no idea how the subject choice impacts who sees the email.

Thanks for the OP, I think it's an excellent action. Please, all Bernie supporters, do your part.

(1,784 posts)written letter rather than an email may be the way to go. These people get hundreds of emails day in and day out. I'm writing one to John Garamendi.
