Why aren't Democrats demanding to see them?
Because he’s already made them available.

But the Democrats also changed the rules so that Bloomberg can be in the debates now. That might have backfired after that ass kicking Bloomberg got, but the plan was to have him take delegates away from Bernie. And we already saw that all of the candidates, except Bernie, are ready to let the "super delegates" decide the winner.
Why aren't Democrats demanding to see them?
We are, though.
Which is really fucked up because those same people say we should abolish the Electoral College because it's undemocratic.
FWIW - I think the EC should be abolished and I think the Democratic Nominee should be whoever gets the most votes.

Absolutely. Democracy should mean "one person = one vote." The fact that some Democrats are being hypocrites about this means all they care about is winning.
Yup.
Some of them only care about preserving the status quo of the Democratic Party which, prior to the infusion of the new blood in 2018, saw a pretty bad losing streak throughout Obama's term because of the triangulation.
The fact is a Wyoming vote has more power than a California vote. The righty loved the Electoral college when they found it worked for them, then it suddenly was crucial to democracy. They were all for ending it before that. The EC is a vestige of a time when it was necessary to appease slave states to get the union started. That time is sort of over. One man -one vote would be best served by a popular vote both in primaries and general elections. When the Constitution was cobbled together there were no parties.

Sometimes Conservatives will, in bad faith, argue that without the EC, small town votes don't matter. Which is obviously bullshit, because right now most states' votes don't matter. Unless you live in a swing state, your vote means nothing. If we had "one person = one vote" then every vote would truly matter.
But yeah, it's really just about the system working for them. If it favored Liberals, they'd be hollering about how the DEEP STATE is doing this to rob the people of Democracy.
Still wrong, even when we hand you the answers. That is the definition of stupid.
There are no exceptions.
And the whole primary system is fucked and stupid too. It lasts too long, relies too much on private money, and is a distraction. The whole thing, primary-convention-general, should be 3 months, tops. 1 month of primary voting, 1 month of conventions and campaigning, and 1 month of general election voting.
The whole process can be shrunk and made more cost-effective, while also spurring higher turnout by making it easier for people to vote.
Oh, and I believe every single Post Office should also serve as a polling station, and you should be able to vote at any Post Office, anywhere, 24/7, for 30 days during the primary and another 30 days for the general.
If we did that, I guarantee voter turnout would surpass 65%, and the GOP would never win another major race.
Democrats? Principled?
Democrats define corrupt and hypocrite.
So is Nadler lying, stupid a hypocrite or all three in this video? I can't get any lie filled leftist hack to answer this question honestly.

I wouldn't say liberals, I'd say Conservative Democrats.
Liberals believe in one person, one vote, even when they were winning elections.
That's not a fact. It's actually rather stupid and ignorant.
If you were educated, which you obviously are not, you would understand the genius behind the EC. But, because you enjoy being uneducated and uninformed, you will continue to bloviate like an idiot for the rest of your life.
