DNC Sued By Up To 2 Million Sanders Donors In Class Action Lawsuit

Hundreds of Bernie Sanders donors have launched a massive class action lawsuit against the DNC alleging fraud and collusion with the Hillary Clinton campaign, in a move designed to fundamentally change the way the DNC exists and conducts business, and thousands more people have requested paperwork to sign on as plaintiffs in the past 48 hours.

...

“We think that the DNC has been running absolutely out of control and completely disregarding their responsibilities, rights, and duties to the public,” attorney Elizabeth Beck said.

Could Delegate's New Lawsuit Derail Trump's Nomination?

A Virginia delegate to the Republican National Convention filed a class action lawsuit in federal court Friday challenging a state law that binds delegates to support the primary winner at the nominating convention.

The outcome of the lawsuit could have significant implications for Donald Trump's nomination, as it will be a test case of a key argument being pushed by some Trump opponents who want to see him stopped at a contested convention.

They argue that state laws requiring delegates to vote for a specific candidate are unconstitutional, on the grounds that they violate the First Amendment's protection of the right to assemble — and that delegates to the national convention should be allowed to vote for whomever they please.

I'm not seeing the merit behind the lawsuits, especially the republican one.

The will of the voter has been made clear. The parties get to write their own rules about how they nominate their candidate.

If there was some sort of illegal fraud committed by the democrats, and it can be proved, then I can see some merit there. Hard to prove.

Everything was done in full view of the public. If you don't like what your party did, you can let it be known with your vote.

Bernie may be right.
But it is difficult to imagine what sort of Primary the people from Virgina want!
Seem like the want the primary to be a straw vote, but the delegates know best, vote as they see fit. Naw!
