And the lies about the Clark County convention continue...

http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1107&pid=89300

Despite the fact that numerous people have posted that ALL delegates from Clark County received this letter, some people prefer to think that Hillary was the victim.

Edited to add that I was a delegate for Bernie; I and five other friends who were Bernie delegates also got this e-mail.

Hillary delegates received this e-mail? Despite the fact that it has been posted numerous times that ALL delegates got this e-mail?

Edited to remove unnecessary snark.

But that begs the question...Who sent the email and why was it so woefully inaccurate?

I think those are important questions and ones I'm sure are being thoroughly investigated.

or this poster wouldn't have written it; other posters in that thread would have corrected the error. It seems that several people prefer the Hillary as victim narrative.

That said, I do recognize that the majority of Hillary supports do not do this, but the fact that I was banned from the Hillary group just for pointing out facts indicates that a fair number do.

Most of us think it's 'settled' since those shots have been posted, but obviously not in the Hillary forum.

To say Hillary won Nevada would be equally disingenuous.

16. It's going to be 19-16 for Bernie. But in any case, you shouldn't be going around saying Hillary won

with facts. I say let them post their lies because it only hurts their own reputation in the DU community when they do it. Everyone who can read knows what happened and that includes a lot of the Hillary supporters. Not all Hillary supporters are posting such nonsense.

And have said as much. They're fine with what happened in AZ because they don't want to risk losing another state to a clear vote.

I want a clear vote on everything- and think you again for being there being part of that clear vote attempt.

I was a Bernie delegate and I got the e-mail. Four other people I know were Bernie delegates and they got the e-mail. Several people I spoke with at the convention - both Bernie and Hillary supporters - got the e-mail. No one that I talked to did not get the e-mail.

Does that clarify it for you?

liberal N proud - who might be one of the two - thinks I'm a liar! Where will I go, what will I do?

Oh, that's right, I'll go back to living my life and supporting Bernie who flipped the Clark County Democratic convention because the Bernie people were smarter and gave out better information.
