WAS THE ELECTION RIGGED AGAINST BERNIE SANDERS? DNC LAWSUIT DEMANDS REPAYMENT FOR CAMPAIGN DONORS

A class action lawsuit alleging the Democratic National Committee worked in conjunction with Hillary Clinton's 2016 campaign to keep Bernie Sanders out of the White House has been raging on in the courtrooms for months on end–and yet, most people have no idea of its existence, in large part thanks to the mainstream media's total lack of coverage.

Jared Beck, a Harvard Law graduate and one of the several attorneys who filed the suit against the DNC and its former chairperson Debbie Wasserman Schultz, wants retribution for donations made by supporters to the Vermont senator's campaign, citing six legal claims of the DNC’s deceptive conduct, negligent misrepresentation and fraud. The DNC violated Article 5, Section 4 of its own charter by working with a single campaign to effectively choose who would win the Democratic ballot, the attorneys stated in the suit.

Sanders' supporters have faced an uphill battle in the courts ever since August, when the DNC managed to block hearings from beginning by successfully claiming it wasn’t served the lawsuit correctly. The committee then immediately requested the lawsuit be dismissed after it was refiled September 2, according to Observer. Since then, Schultz and the DNC's attorneys have defended the organization against accusations that it failed in its duties to maintain neutrality throughout last year's Democratic primaries.
