Chaos at NV Democratic Convention; State Party Chair Flees Building as Sanders Supporters Demand Recount | 15 May 2016 | (Las Vegas) This situation escalated out of control when Roberta Lange, Chairwoman of the Nevada State Democratic Party and member of the national DNC Executive Committee subjectively called the results of a voice vote, adjourned the meeting using a gavel, and left. According to a Democratic Party spokesman, the national party or its Chair, Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, “did not have a part in this.” [LOL!] Nevada's Democratic caucus erupted into chaos Saturday night. Bernie Sanders supporters demanded 64 rejected pro-Sanders delegates listed in a “minority report” prepared by their campaign be allowed to participate in selecting delegates for the national convention. DNC leaders refused to reconsider their decision not to allow this, adjourned, and fled the building amid a chorus of boos; leaving hotel security and local police officers to handle the angry Sanders supporters.
