DemDaily: DNC Teaser
August 24, 2018
The gathering of Democratic National Committee (DNC) members at their bi-annual meeting is usually a matter of procedural and party business, reconnecting and planning with state leaders, and strategizing around this point in the election cycle.
At this Summer's meeting in Chicago, Illinois, however, conversation in the corners of the Hyatt Regency lobby bar, meetings, caucuses and receptions, is focused around a controversial resolution by the DNC Rules and Bylaws Committee regarding the voting rights of DNC Members themselves.
The debate is over the presidential nominating process and an attempt to counter perceived public perception of the influence of "Superdelegates" in deciding the Party's eventual nominee.
