    Well technically it’s true that DNC are following protocol. Even if Hogg wasn’t running challengers to his own party and insulting them publicly, the DNC would still probably be holding the party leadership chair special election later this year.

      This is one of those things where they’re following the letter of the law, but I’m 80% sure that they’re only doing so because it suits them.

        They are a corporation. They don’t owe anyone dick. They said as much last time they were in court for rat fucking Bernie.

        It’s technically not law because the DNC is a private institution, but it is written down as institution policy, so yes.
