Sanders’ supporters sue California over primary rules

WT: Supporters of Sen. Bernard Sanders in California have filed a federal lawsuit to extend voter registration for the state’s June 7 primary, as the Democrats’ nominating fight drags on to the bitter end.

The lawsuit claims election officials are not doing enough to publicize that the Democratic primary is open to independent voters, who have favored Mr. Sanders throughout his challenge to Hillary Clinton, the Los Angeles Times reported.

“Mistakes are being made,” William Simpich, a civil rights attorney in Oakland who filed the lawsuit, told the newspaper. “There’s mass confusion. This is a situation that really shouts out for some uniformity.”

The lawsuit seeks to extend the March 31 registration deadline to June 7, the day of the primary.  more
