The DNC doesn't require donors from all 50 states, but it does require a healthy diversity of states. I think it is 200 unique donors from 20 different states.

If it’s only $65K and 200 people that’s a low bar. That’s well within range of a determined troll to get a podium on live TV.
200 from each of 20 states.
Not dollars, 65k unique donors. And 200 from each of 20 states.
Why should anything about this be designed to exclude "trolls"? Last time repubs got a troll, and he won the whole thing.
Ha! For the record I’m all for it. I find the entire election procrsss highly entertaining.

The funniest thing I heard on the subject was the suggestion to nominate Trump as a Democrat so he qualifies for their primary debates and can take on all of them at once.
