I haven't followed the story that closely. The significance of being in Delaware is she could have driven to DC for a private interview she claimed she wanted. The committee thought she was still out in California and offered to fly interviewers out there. It is possible her lawyers didn't tell her of the offer. They weren't working for her, but rather the take down gang.
Can someone tell me why her husband was NOT at her side?
well, given that:
1. she was already being handled by her attorneys/coaches
2. it was public knowledge that the committee offered to come out to CA to meet her
It is clear that her not accepting their offer had to do more with her needing more ‘coaching/preparation’ time than not knowing about the offer or her proximity to them when they made the offer.
