Democratic Party says sorry to Sanders for emails

July 26, 2016 04:16

Democratic Party bosses have apologised to Bernie Sanders for "inexcusable" emails aimed at undermining his White House bid, as they tried to patch up an embarrassing party feud.

"We want to offer a deep and sincere apology to Senator Sanders, his supporters, and the entire Democratic Party for the inexcusable remarks made over email," the Democratic National Committee said in a statement on the opening day of the party's convention set to nominate Hillary Clinton for the presidency.

"These comments do not reflect the values of the DNC or our steadfast commitment to neutrality during the nominating process."
