Wasserman: Florida Congresswoman and Schultz

wasserman: The Florida congresswoman was angrily heckled by her own home-state delegation Monday morning, and Democratic officials feared a similar scene in front of a far bigger TV audience, according to CTV. Wasserman Schultz is leaving her post following the publication of thousands of emails suggesting the Democratic National Committee favoured Clinton during her primary contest with Sanders, despite vowing to remain neutral. Clinton escaped one potentially ugly moment when outgoing party chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz announced she would not take the stage. Sanders and his supporters have long argued that the party was on the side of the former secretary of state. The statement was signed by DNC leaders, though Wasserman Schultz name was notably absent. As the convention began in sweltering Philadelphia, the DNC released a statement apologizing to Sanders and his supporters "for the inexcusable remarks made over email." The party said the comments do not reflect the party values or commitment to neutrality in the primary process. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
