Shortly after The Associated Press updated its delegate count and declared Hillary Clinton the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, a spokesman for Sen. Bernie Sanders slammed the media’s “rush to judgement.”
“It is unfortunate that the media, in a rush to judgement, are ignoring the Democratic National Committee’s clear statement that it is wrong to count the votes of superdelegates before they actually vote at the convention this summer,” spokesman Michael Briggs said Monday night.
“Secretary Clinton does not have and will not have the requisite number of pledged delegates to secure the nomination. She will be dependent on superdelegates who do not vote until July 25 and who can change their minds between now and then. They include more than 400 superdelegates who endorsed Secretary Clinton 10 months before the first caucuses and primaries and long before any other candidate was in the race.
“Our job from now until the convention is to convince those superdelegates that Bernie is by far the strongest candidate against Donald Trump.”

Yep. They’re running scared and trying to demoralize his voters.
The internals must look really bad if they’ve gotten this desperate.

Feeeeeellll the Bern !
Yep, this narrative is being put out to ‘smother’ the narrative of her losing California to Bernie.
The media know what’s best for us!

WOO-HOO, Bernie on the Independent ticket!
They’re talking 3rd party for Bern over on Reddit. Let’s support them.
This seems like a DWS ploy to throw the election to Clinton tomorrow.
