Tell MSNBC to stop including Super-delegates in their graphics of the Democratic primary!

The Issue

In MSNBC broadcasts covering the Democratic Primary race, the news anchors and pundits frequently present very misleading graphics wherein un-pledged super-delegates are combined with pledged delegates.  

This creates a misleading impression to voters who don't know or understand the difference between pledged and un-pledged delegates. This creates the impression that Clinton is leading by far more than she actually is.

We believe that misleading voters at such a crucial time in our election process is an obstruction of our democracy.

We ask that you remove super-delegates from the overall delegates graphic and, if you must include them at all, create a separate graphic for the super-delegates.

Signed,

WE THE PEOPLE
