For years, Democrats have decried Republicans as “election deniers,” even using the phrase to justify lawfare against then-former President Donald Trump. But as it turns out, when elections don’t go their way suddenly the process is flawed and democracy is negotiable.
On Monday, the credentials committee of the Democratic National Committee (DNC) voted to overturn the results of an election that led to 25-year-old David Hogg being selected as a party vice chair. (Hogg survived the 2018 Parkland School shooting.)
But the DNC committee argued the election did not follow proper parliamentary procedures. The decision “will put the issue before the full body of the Democratic National Committee,” according to The New York Times. The DNC will then decide “whether to force Mr. Hogg and a second vice chair, Malcolm Kenyatta, to run again in another election later this year,” according to the report.
The committee moved to deny the election results after one of the losing vice chair candidates, Kalyn Free, claimed the party “had wrongly combined two separate questions into a single vote, putting at a disadvantage the female candidates because of the party’s gender-parity rules,” according to The Times.
In a statement before the vote took place, Free said “This is about fairness and making sure that three women and the voting members of the D.N.C. are not disenfranchised,” according to The Times.
Apparently, it’s not “election denial” if the denial comes with a diversity, equity, and inclusion clause.

Pretty sure the Democrat Party thinks of elections as a mere formality.
Hogg wasn't even at the school when the shooting took place.
[(Hogg survived the 2018 Parkland School shooting.)]
NO HE DID NOT
I remember the clip of the person presiding over the vote describing the race and gender-based Byzantine rules before the voting. Now they’re going to use the rules their addled brains cooked up to ditch this formerly-golden soy boy. It’s so delicious; it really is
Obviously.
Exactly, David Hogg is nothing but a con man.
Like the old Soviet formality of 99.9% turnouts and everybody “voted” the way they were supposed to vote...or else.
I’m gonna need a bigger bucket of popcorn!
the party’s gender-parity rules
____________
That’s what Dems are all about!
Hogg wasn’t even at the school when the shooting took place

That’s incorrect!
He was there, in the school, taking class on environment.
But far away from any danger, safely locked in closet.
Recording and texting. Being texted about the situation.
He may even hear some pop sounds.
That Parkland school incident was a case of total security collapse. They paid two armed officers to provide security, they both took cover and did nothing!
On the other hand they had two unarmed security, the both tried to do something and got killed!
The police response was also very inadequate.
Just sad story.
Hogg made a killing out of this tragedy!
Boss Hogg’s slogan...
“Never let a serious crisis to go to waste.”
I saw the interview with Hogg the day of the shooting. He said he “hopped on his bike and rode the three miles to the school”. After everyone started discussing what he had said and that he wasn’t there, the story changed to “he was at school during the shooting, went home and then rode his bike back to the school to document everything”. You decide which version is true.
The Hogg boy definitely did not “survive” anything. He was born a bottom feeding con man. The only thing he “survived” was Planned Parenthood.
Elections have consequences.
Well said!
It's the democrat way.
It’s Dem’s “electoral abortion.” Hogg’s election was the result of an ill-considered
“feel good moment,”......sex without a condom...... and now regrets have set in.
Dems’ll just get rid of him, Planned Parenthood-style.
It’s the tried and true “abortion-worshipping Democrat way.”
But the media keep reporting that he was there. And for whatever reason, he and that fuzzy headed girl became the public face of the students of the school.
Somehow he’s remained a public figure, and got himself into position, to be selected to a high level position in the Democrat party.
And now he’s an obnoxious loudmouth leftist political activist.
