In her husband, longtime Arkansas Gov. Her first DNC speech was in , when the then-first lady faced criticism about the Whitewater scandal and for having too much influence on administration policy. In , Clinton spoke as a candidate for the Senate, and in the then-senator from New York introduced her husband. Ms Brazile came under fire last year after the anti-secrecy website released hacked DNC emails that revealed she had notified the Clinton campaign in advance of a question she would be asked at a town hall-style event hosted by CNN.
Pulling the purse strings. Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign, she says, had effective control over the DNC before any ballots were cast in the Democratic presidential primaries. Starting in August , the Clinton team controlled the committee's "finances, strategy and all the money raised".
It had say over staff hiring and veto power over press releases and mailings. This is not, as some have argued, proof that the primary process was "rigged" against the Vermont senator, who finished a surprisingly strong second to but still millions of votes behind Hillary Clinton when the primaries had concluded.
Ms Brazile searched, but could find no evidence of tampering, of tilting or of twisting.

We need numbers so overwhelming Trump can't sneak or steal his way to victory. So text VOTE to and let's go win. One hundred years ago yesterday, the 19th Amendment was ratified. It took seven decades of suffragists marching, picketing, and going to jail to push us closer to that more perfect union.
Fifty-five years ago, John Lewis marched and bled in Selma because that work was unfinished. Tonight I am thinking of the girls and boys who see themselves in America's future because of Kamala Harris—a Black woman, the daughter of Jamaican and Indian immigrants, and our nominee for Vice President of the United States.
This is our country's story: breaking down barriers and expanding the circle of possibility. So to all the young people: Don't give up on America.
