Have any of the 58 Sanders Delegates come forward to clear their name?

I have not seen one on Television, heard on the radio, or on the internet personally pleading their own case. Has anyone of them filed a lawsuit? Anyone of them provide proof of their timely Democratic Party registration for the state of Nevada?

Interesting.

I understand if you're asleep or have other things going on to respond to such a request right away, but I am interested in more information.

Reality check on the Sanders campaign’s conspiracy theory allegations on 64 ineligible Sanders delegates who were “denied”:

Only eight of these ineligible delegates – people who weren’t registered Democrats as of May 1 or failed to provide missing identification information – even attempted to register at the State Convention.

Six of the 64 potential delegates were seated after investigation.

Forty-four of the 64 potential delegates had prior notice of ineligibility and the Sanders campaign had every opportunity to provide the necessary documentation.

The ten members of the State Convention’s Credentials Committee consisted of an equal number of supporters from both campaigns.

Uh, they're victims of fraud and abuse of power. They're not the subject of an FBI criminal investigation or anything.

It's more and more probable that they are the ones that committed the fraud. "No shows" = guilt

The Sanders campaign broke in, took data and then blamed the Clinton campaign.

Sued to make it look like Sanders was the victim of the DNC. Independent review came out confirming it was Sanders staff who breached security. Bernie's campaign came out with some crazy spin on the results. All of that corrupt, rigged stuff he talks about is projection.

Even thou he said they were still investigating and if anyone else was a perp, they would be fired too.
