But hundreds of Bernie Sanders supporters were not in a holiday spirit. They lashed the Everett Democrat one of Washingtons 17 so-called superdelegates to the partys national convention demanding he drop his support of Hillary Clinton in light of Sanders landslide win in Saturdays caucuses.
Another uncommitted superdelegate, Rongey, said she will vote for the Democratic nominee at the national convention but added she has not enjoyed the tone of the blitz by Sanders fans.
Shes been deluged with bombardment, threats and attempts at shaming since a pro-Sanders website shared her personal and business contact information.

(1,947 posts)we played by your rules for so long it isn't happening anymore. We were complicit in the move to the right and are now trying to correct that. We are at fault for some of this, but we are trying to fix it. Clinton supporters are trying to keep it the damn same. That's the problem. Sander's supporters (the older ones) are trying to fix what we screwed up, Hillary supporters are intent on keeping everything that is screwed up. A super delegate running for re-election can expect this. I definitely condone using the power of your vote to sway super delegates. Why is it okay for anything else but this? this is a political revolution and if you don't like it, get out of the way of us fixing this mess.

(910 posts)What purpose does posting her address serve? Or shaming and threatening her? If that's acceptable behavior to you, then you are attempting to take over the wrong party. Take your "revolution" elsewhere.
I am on democratic underground stating that if a super delegate is up for re-election a voter certainly can warn them of remaining away from the polls if they do not switch toward the will of that district. That's what I am stating. How do we not know the Hillary camp isn't doing this, they are attempting to marginalize any Sanders supporter after all.
