"We respect and admire Senator Sanders for his values and leadership in the

United States Senate, but the Sanders campaign is continuing to be dishonest

about what happenedSaturday and is failing to adequately denounce the
threats of violence of his supporters."
The Sanders Campaign Continues to Lie About What Happened on
Saturday and Has Failed to Denounce The Tactics and Actions Of Their
Staff and Supporters
The Temporary Convention Rules Were Passed With The Support Of
Nearly 100 More Clinton Delegates Than Sanders Delegates. Convention
delegates passed the Temporary Convention Rules after the Credentials
Committee announced their preliminary report of delegates in attendance.
Clinton had nearly 100 more delegates than Sanders and the rules were
passed in accordance with procedures the Sanders campaign had never
objected to before today.
Six Of The Sixty Four Delegates Were Seated By The Credentials
Committee After Their Information Was Verified, Eight Were Deemed
Ineligible After They Were Shown To Be Not Be Registered Voters Or A
Registered Voter Of A Different Party And Fifty Of Them Never Even
Attempted To Register Or Show Up At The Convention. The credentials
committee heard the cases of fourteen Sanders supporters whose information
could not be verified and sat six of them after they were verified as
registered Democrats. Eight Sanders supporters were deemed ineligible after
the credentials committee verified they were not registered Democrats,
including one that had changed their registration from Democratic to Green
in April and several that were not registered voters. The rest, 50 individuals,
never showed up at the convention to attempt to register and, therefore,
would not have affected the outcome of the convention at all.
NV Dems Provided The Sanders Campaign The Names Of Forty-Four
Of The Sixty Four Delegates Whose Information Could Not Be Verified
Two Days Before The Convention. NV Dems provided the Sanders
campaign the names of 44 delegates of the 64 in question whose information
could not be verified. The Sanders campaign never responded and never
provided information to verify their eligibility as delegates/alternates.

Sanders Convention Floor Organizer Admitted That The Sanders

Campaign Failed To Properly Move Their Petitions On The Floor And
Blamed Other Sanders Supporters For Failing To Show Up. According
to a Facebook post by Angie Morelli, a Sanders organizer on the Convention
Floor, Let me explain what happened today. We were at 110% registration
for delegates for the convention, they just didn't show up and check in, and a
lot of our delegates had credentialing issues. Most of our petitions had more
than enough signatures, but we had to take the floor to do a motion. We
stood up front and gloriously made them allow for us to speak, via the
microphones, but people who didn't know what was going on decided to
take the mic and we never got to make a motion to amend based on the
petitions. [Angie Morelli Facebook, 5/14/16]
