The actress Margot Kidder, who very recently died, was also a political activist in Montana. She wrote a very scathing article in 2016 about HRC and DNC skulduggery. While reading I took it Kidder was a Bernie supporter, and she explains how the Bernie camp got boned.
Can’t do a linky for thee right now, but search on “How Hillary Clinton bought the loyalty of 33 state democratic parties”. My description is pretty close to the article’s title.

How [Hillary Clinton] Bought the Loyalty of 33 State Democratic Parties

“It’s worse than wicked, my dear, it’s vulgar” - Punch Almanac, 1876
Collusion between the Clinton campaign and the DNC allowed Hillary Clinton to buy the loyalty of 33 state Democratic parties last summer. Montana was one of those states. It sold itself for $64,100.
The Super Delegates now defying democracy with their insistent refusal to change their votes to Sanders in spite of a handful of overwhelming Clinton primary losses in their own states, were arguably part of that deal.
In August 2015, at the Democratic Party convention in Minneapolis, 33 democratic state parties made deals with the Hillary Clinton campaign and a joint fundraising entity called The Hillary Victory Fund. The deal allowed many of her core billionaire and inner circle individual donors to run the maximum amounts of money allowed through those state parties to the Hillary Victory Fund in New York and the DNC in Washington.
The idea was to increase how much one could personally donate to Hillary by taking advantage of the Supreme Court ruling 2014, McCutcheon v FEC, that knocked down a cap on aggregate limits as to how much a donor could give to a federal campaign in a year. It thus eliminated the ceiling on amounts spent by a single donor to a presidential candidate.
I remember how the witch Toon followers complained about that the bathroom barryistas “stole” the primary back in 2008....
