THE DFL IS ACCUSED OF TRYING TO SQUEEZE OUT BERNIE SANDERS SUPPORTERS IN MINNEAPOLIS
{snip}
"The facility won't be big enough," Sorenson says, "and I'm afraid [Bernie Sanders'] supporters will be affected the most."
Sorenson charges the DFL's grand poobahs with contracting — or at the very least, turning a blind eye to — the number of caucus spots to keep the vote down, thus favoring Hillary Clinton. In a blog posted last week, Sorenson accused Minnesota DFL Party Chairman Ken Martin of complicity. He also skewered DNC super delegate Rick Stafford, a Clinton devotee and until last month, the Senate District 62 chair.
"[Precincts like the one in Whittier] had very [high] turnout and participation in 2008’s presidential preference balloting, voting overwhelmingly for Barack Obama over Hillary Clinton," wrote Sorenson. "By all apparent signs these precincts... will vote overwhelmingly for Bernie Sanders instead of Rick Stafford’s chosen candidate."
Sorenson believes the party is trying to squeeze out Sanders supporters.
