The rules were put in place before Gabbard went after Biden.

But, hey, that's what they want.
How many times have you voted in a Democratic primary and then attended the precinct convention?

Senatorial district or county convention, state convention? Ever been to a national convention? Ever been a precinct committee person? Ever worked for a candidate?

Read the party rules?

Lots of people complain. I'll take them seriously when they read the rules.

Most of those saying it's rigged don't vote Democratic.

As far as Bernie goes, his delegates were not trained, did not know the rules and Weaver didn't even have floor leaders at the convention. F 'em.
