Time Is Running Out to Abolish Superdelegate Dominance

DNC Rules Committee

Friend,

You and over 210,000 people have signed our petition to abolish superdelegate voting dominance. And, your action is making a difference!

In May, the Maine Democratic Party voted to abolish the influence of superdelegates. Now, 20 other states have followed their lead.

Ultimately, to truly restore one person, one vote to our nomination process, the DNC needs to change the rules. The good news is that forty-three members of the party's Rules Committee have signed on to an amendment to end superdelegates. We only need four more members to potentially force a floor fight on the amendment.

Now, it’s time to send a message directly to the rules committee.

Time Is Running Out: Sign NOW to Abolish Superdelegate Voting Dominance.

As President of Progressive Kick, I’m traveling to Philadelphia to personally deliver our signatures to the rules committee before their meeting on Saturday.

Please add your name.

Superdelegates have the “superpower” to choose the party’s presidential nominee irrespective of the voters’ choice.

The sponsor of the rule change in Maine, Representative Diane Russell, stated, “It’s really quite simple. If you want to build a fair economy that works for everyone, you must first build a fair election system that works for everyone.”

The rule changes made by states across the country mean Superdelegate presidential preferences will be allocated in the same proportion as voter preferences.

We have a real chance to abolish superdelegate dominance. But, change won’t happen unless you make your voice heard. Please help by adding your name today.

Superdelegates have the “superpower” to choose the party’s presidential nominee irrespective of the voters’ choice.

That's not right.

In order to truly restore one person, one vote to our nomination process, the DNC needs to change the rules.

Please, as chair of the DNC, lead the change in the rules and abolish superdelegate voting dominance over the rest of us.

Sincerely,
