Title of article: Clinton supporters say 'Bernie Bros' trolling them at DNC [View all]

PHILADELPHIA—When they went to pick up their credentials for the Democratic National Convention this week, Victoria Sanchez and Lily Glaser were met by Bernie Sanders supporters.


The two teenagers—Sanchez, 16, of Nashua, New Hampshire, and Glaser, 15, of Rochester, New York—are Hillary Clinton supporters, an unpopular view among the protest groups that have set up camp near FDR Park, just outside the convention hall at Wells Fargo Center.

"There were a lot of people trying to get a rise out of us," Sanchez said. "I am down here and alone. They are yelling at a 16-year-old."

"It's getting exasperating," Glaser agreed. "And inside the convention, the Bernie people had signs and tape over their mouths. You could see their anger."

Throughout the four-day convention, Clinton supporters say they've been met with ridicule and anger from Sanders supporters, who came out by the thousands to protest what they say is a rigged system and a Democratic nominee they can't support. Almost absent from the week, however, is any mention of Republican nominee Donald Trump from either supporters or protesters outside the security zone.
