The Democratic National Convention ordered the state party of Vermont to replace two delegates because they're men.
State Sen. Tim Ashe and party insider Ken Dean were ordered to be replaced by the DNC so that the party could achieve a gender balance. Dean and Ashe have filed a formal complaint with the DNC's credentials committee, according to the Associated Press.
Dean and Ashe were elected by the people of Vermont to serve as delegates on June 11. Everything was fine until July 5, when the DNC ordered the state party to replace the two men with women.
This is not gender balance, it's a false attempt by the DNC to make the party appear more balanced than it is. The people wanted these two men, who are both well-known and respected in the state, to go to the convention. Instead, they will be replaced by two women for the sake of gender balance.
This shows what a sham the DNC's alleged moral high ground on gender issues is.

I rather doubt the Donks have that many real men to begin with ... but in any case, this article serves to remind us of the type of circus that's going to take place next week ...
I’m taking a much needed vacation from the media next week. Nothing but beach, beers and barbecue. Ping me if something good happens.
How do we know their transgenders are balanced?
Why don’t the just “identify” as really butch lesbians, trapped in male bodies?
Can’t they just declare themselves women?
Our leaders can't stand the will of the people.
If they did not intend to be men how can they be charged?
Liberty.
A concept foreign to the Democrat Party.
Welcome to the back of the bus, boys. Think of it as your new Safe Space. Here, have a cookie.
Good one. I wonder how much trouble an aggressive defense of these two men could make for the DNC, particularly in the media?
Why do the dems even bother going through the motions any more? It’s all a farce
gender balance??????????? Pffft. Sharia will take care of that if hillary gets the gig.
this has to be widely publicized!
the D party discriminates against almost everybody
in one way or another
they seem to be bound up in sexism, racism, and anti=Christian/anti-Jewish attitudes
a terrible, sick bunch of bigots! through and through
Our leaders can’t stand the will of the people.

Appreciate you posting this. The selection of delegates to the democrat convention has been a favorite subject of mine for some time. It actually extends further than your article indicates. Each state delegation is given “goal” which it must meet to include male/female balance, minority representation, etc. Each state has to perform a survey and determine the mix of races, genders, etc and ensure that their delegates match that mix.
You will see countless democrats on TV discussing how their delegates are representative of the nation. Not one TV reporter will ask about the quota system the democrats use to achieve their ‘balance’. It does give you an idea of how democrats would prefer to run things.
You win the internet prize today with that comment!!!!
I don’t know the Phila cops are none to pleased with Hillary’s choice for speakers.

We already know they are not! Nobody who is in the DNC is balanced.
