After rough first day at DNC, Sanders voters still reluctant to back Clinton

From DNC leaked emails, protests and arrests, to mocking comedians and emotional Bernie Sanders supporters, the first day of the Democratic National Convention was rough. It remains to be seen if it will get better for presumptive nominee Hillary Clinton.

Sanders supporters expressed their dissatisfaction with boos and tears. Many were as much against Hillary as they were GOP nominee Donald Trump.

“There’s a lot of division, on the issues, on the nomination,” California Sanders delegate Shawnee Badger told The Washington Post. Badger has been memorialized on Twitter for her emotional reaction to Bernie’s speech on Monday.

“I know a lot of Bernie people are voicing their dissatisfaction with the party, party leaders, a lot of the people that have gone up to speak have been booed,” she continued.

Badger also denounced Hillary’s running mate, Sen. Tim Kaine, and called for someone more progressive. She said Kaine won’t excite young voters.
