“It’s completely corrupt and every superdelegate is a lobbyist. The way that the system is set up in terms of trying of having superdelegates — you could win a state and not get the delegates. It’s crazy.”
The Academy Award-winner had long supported Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders during the Democratic presidential primary.
Sarandon ultimately
endorsed Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein in a letter Wednesday, writing that “fear of Donald Trump is not enough for me to support Clinton, with her record of corruption.”
Explaining her support for Sanders, Sarandon told CNN’s Carol Castello “What [Sanders] did is show people that they counted. He brought them hope. He’s supporting a lot of candidates. It’s very important to go and vote down the ticket.”
