When Senator Bernie Sanders’ name did not appear on ballots during the 2016 Democratic primary, members of the D.C. Democratic State Committee had to scramble to fix the mistake. It was rectified, but this is just one example of the chaos going on within the party. As members deal with everything from an out-of-date website to poor distribution of information, they’ve placed blame on party chairwoman and at-large councilmember Anita Bonds, who they say makes “unilateral decisions that affect the committee as a whole.”
