Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., and his allies want Democrats to ignore the rules he helped rewrite and coronate him at the party's convention this summer if he arrives with a plurality, but not a majority, of delegates, writes NBC News' Jonathan Allen. It's a reversal from the position he took in 2016, when he looked to so-called superdelegates to overcome Hillary Clinton's lead in regular delegates at the end of their primary race. The risk for Sanders is that voters might begin to believe that his definition of a "rigged" system has nothing to do with fairness, and everything to do with whether he wins or loses. |
