The Democratic National Committee has suspended Sen. Bernie Sanders' presidential campaign from accessing its voter database after the campaign took advantage of a software error to access Hillary Clinton's confidential voter information.
Sanders' campaign said the sneak peek was inadvertent.
Still, the suspension is a setback for the Vermont senator because the database is a goldmine of information about voters nationwide. Campaigns usually use that data to plot their next moves.
The DNC database keeps the information gathered by different campaigns separated by a firewall.
But the data systems vendor that runs the program dropped the firewall for a brief period of time Thursday, during which time the data was accessed.

Why is any voter information confidential?
7:57 - if it's held by the party it can be proprietary...if it's held by the government it must be [public.....
The fix is in for Hillary.
burnie's a bum too
This is exactly what the DNC was looking for in order to distance itself from the Bern! Now they can officially say that the Sanders campaign committed a despicable act (even to their standards).
Hopefully, he'll start an independent campaign and split the dumbocrat vote like Perot did for Slick Willy!
We still have to coalesce around a viable candidate - without one of them running an independent campaign themselves....
Can the Republicans do that this time around? Do they have the discipline to keep their heads out of their @$$3$? Will they put up a real conservative instead of the RINO's McConnel and (now) Ryan?!
Nobody votes for a Democrat they are just voting against someone else they hate.
The GOP candidates trade email addresses of donors on the open market. I mean, Scott Walker's list was already bought by several bidders. Rubio's entire list is from John McCain. I honestly don't see how this is any worse.
I would be willing to bet that Hillary won't be going on stage and saying, "Enough about Bernie's computer" at the next debate.
