Interesting that he waits to make this statement publicly until after he is nominated for VP. Just sayin'.
Quote:Sen. Tim Kaine, D-Va., is advocating for the Democratic National Committee to eliminate superdelegates, prominent party officials who can pick candidates regardless of how their state or district votes in the primary process and who largely voted in favor of Hillary Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign.
"I have long believed there should be no superdelegates. These positions are given undue influence in the popular nominating contest and make the process less democratic,” Kaine, who was Hillary Clinton’s running mate in the 2016 presidential election, wrote in a letter Wednesday to DNC chairman Tom Perez.
