The new Debate meme [View all]
The two campaigns have been in negotiations the past few days about where to hold the final two debates. Negotiations must not be going in the direction that Team Sanders wants so he is taking the debate public and unleashing his internet crew on the world.
Here are the facts:
In February the campaigns agreed to add 3 debates to the calendar. One was to be held in Flint, Michigan March 6th and the other two debates would be determined at a later date.
At the time Bernie said he wanted the debates in NYC and LA however these locations were never agreed to.
Right now Hillary's campaign has stated they'd like the next debate to be in PA. At no time have they said there won't be another debate.
Bernie is using misinformation to try to bolster his position the debate should be in NYC and some of his supporters are lying about the agreement.
Below is a New York Times article that details the agreement between campaigns back in February.
