The head of the Democratic National Committee on Saturday vowed to ensure all candidates have an equal chance to win the Democratic presidential nomination after a former party chair accused the committee of rigging the process to aid Hillary Clinton in 2016.

DNC Chairman Tom Perez said in a statement the 2020 nominating process would be “unquestionably fair and transparent.”

It’s an interesting thing to explicitly say, because it makes 3 top dems now (Brazile, Liawatha and now Perez) to in some way or another say “it was, in fact, rigged.”
