DNC Changes Name to "Elect Hillary Clinton President 2016"

Well done to the Clinton campaign and Hillary shill Debbie Wasserman Schultz, says the satirical source.

Imagine how much money the Sanders campaign will be donated thanks to them.

This shouldn't be surprising considering Wasserman Schultz's record of losing elections across the country.


DNC Changes Name to "Elect Hillary Clinton President 2016"

WASHINGTON (The Nil Admirari) - Earlier today, the Democratic National Committee (DNC) announced it was changing its name to "Elect Hillary Clinton President 2016," and publicly committed itself to destroying the campaign of U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont "by any means necessary." Debbie Wasserman Schultz declared she was already using her position as chair of the DNC's successor organization to cripple the Sanders campaign by restricting its access to critical voter information it needed to contact and mobilize its supporters.

"Now I am restricting the Sanders campaign from accessing its own voter database in response to a story I leaked to the press about some of his campaign staff seeing Hillary's voter database due to the failure of our contractor to maintain a firewall between the candidates' data," said Wasserman Schultz.

Staffer who was fired said he knew his activities would be noted by administrators, and he wanted to figure out what the Clinton campaign was learning about Bernie due to yet another firewall fail.

in Iowa and New Hampshire and saved them to their own folders?

"Sanders Campaign’s Breach of Clinton Data More Serious Than Disclosed"

Bernie Sanders’ campaign’s breach of Hillary Clinton’s voter data may have been more extensive than previously reported, according to a person with knowledge of investigation.

According to data reviewed by TIME, the Sanders campaign appears to have obtained files with lists of voters that the Clinton campaign had cultivated in 10 early states including Iowa and New Hampshire.

Beyond simply reviewing the data, the logs show the Sanders staffers took deliberate steps to harvest and store the information. According to the logs, the Sanders staff created from scratch no fewer than 24 lists—consisting entirely of data pulled down from the Clinton campaign’s database—and saved them to their personal folders.

or mode of transmission, no? Not a classic CSV export, but proprietary data just the same.
