DNC was correct in their response, Sanders drops lawsuit. [View all]

Audit confirms four individual accounts within the Sanders campaign accessed information on the Clinton campaign only. The Sanders campaign performed twenty five searches, targeting eleven states, and downloaded data; all directed at the Clinton campaign.

Clinton and O'Malley cleared as expected.

Sanders suit had no merit and had to be withdrawn.
