Looking to avoid a repeat of the discord, and with an eye towards further unifying the party, Biden’s team is now engaged in talks with the Sanders campaign that would allow the Vermont senator to keep delegates he would have otherwise had to forfeit due to his departure from the race.
Supporters cheer as Sen. Bernie Sanders speaks during the first day of the Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia, July 25, 2016.Sanders' plan to appear on any forthcoming ballots appears to be a backstop to the ongoing talks, with some of his supporters actively engaged in get-out-the-vote efforts in states with primaries still outstanding such as Maryland, New Jersey, Ohio and Pennsylvania.
Prior to the Sanders campaign’s intervention, outside forces were taking the lead to maintain Sanders' influence. Our Revolution, the nonprofit spun-off from Sanders' 2016 campaign, circulated a petition and began working Sunday with volunteers to phone-bank and text New York state officials to lobby for the senator's name to remain.
Sanders’ allies, too, ripped into state election officials for the unilateral action, with Larry Cohen, a DNC member and the board chair of Our Revolution, asserting, "We will be forced to go to the credentials committee and challenge any delegates that New York sends to the convention." "Any substantive change to a state's first determining step in allocating delegates like this one will need to be reviewed by the DNC's Rules and By-Laws Committee," David Bergstein, a spokesperson for the DNC, said."Once the state party submits an updated delegate selection plan, the committee will review that plan and make a determination."

Ask Biden if he sexually assaulted Tara Reade. Until he answers that question, nothing else matters.
How do you feel about the allegations against Joe Biden?
