US police have clashed with supporters of former presidential candidate Bernie Sanders at the Democratic National Convention (DNC) amid continued protests regarding the Democratic Party’s bias against Sanders.

The protesters gathered on Monday outside the Wells Fargo Centre in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, the venue of the 2016 DNC, to demonstrate their anger at presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton.

The protesters were chanting, “Nominate Sanders or lose in November!” and “Hey, hey, ho, ho, the DNC has got to go!” They carried signs reading,

“Never Hillary”, ‘’Just Go to Jail Hillary” and “You Lost Me at Hillary.”

At least 55 protesters were arrested as they chanted against super delegates and the role of money in the campaign. On Sunday, activists held a similar rally outside the convention hall. — PressTV.
