he won, their votes(which represented the votes of the people) would be counted and recognized. This and other concessions were done to ensure there would be no demonstrations at the convention.
Unfortunately while Bernie may think he can control his Revolution, it has turned out otherwise. Thankfully there has been no real ugly demonstrations, but the continued booing during the opening of the convention, particularly when a majority of the speakers were Black Women, and the catcalls and booing during the invocation, again by a Black Woman I thought was particularly disgusting.

Bernie Sanders Supporters Storm Out of Convention in Protest

Outrage at a process they consider unfair
When the Bernie Sanders‘ hopes of winning the Democratic nomination officially ended inside of the Democratic Convention hall Tuesday, his most ardent supporters took their fury outside.
Sanders delegates and supporters from across the U.S.—California, Wyoming, Utah, you name it—walked out of the arena in protest. “Show me what Democracy looks like,” they chanted, hoisting Bernie signs above the sea of heads heading toward the exit. “This is what democracy looks like.” As the crowd shuffled along, a woman in a red dress said aloud, “They just signed the whole nomination over to Trump.”
In the end, Sanders was the one to make a motion to give the nomination to Clinton, after spending weeks telling his supporters to vote for her. But the emotions of many of his delegates were raw. They were convinced the fires of revolution they’d sparked had been doused by the powers that be in the Democratic Party—a feeling that was stoked by the release of 20,000 hacked DNC emails.
“He made a commitment to run for president. He had made a commitment to contest this convention. He hadn’t conceded. He hadn’t suspended. He hadn’t released us. And he told us that he would be grateful for our vote” said Jim Boydston, a delegate from California. “And then he just handed it off.”
