Dems’ division roils party on Day 1 of convention
By KEN THOMAS and
KATHLEEN HENNESSEY
Associated Press
PHILADELPHIA — Angry
Democrats heckled outgoing
party chief Debbie Wasserman
Schultz with boos and cries of
“shame!” on Monday as the
party tried to recover from an
embarrassing email hack that
ripped open primary wounds
just hours before they planned
to mount a four-day showcase
of unity.
Hours before she was
to gavel in the Democratic
National Convention, the Flor-
ida congresswoman was met by
raucous activists who accused
her of favoring Hillary Clin-
ton over vanquished rival Ber-
nie Sanders. Activists jeered and
waved signs reading “Thanks
for the ‘help,’ Debbie,” and
more simply, “E-mail.” Her
supporters shouted them down,
as Wasserman Schultz appealed
for comity.
“We have to make sure that
we move together in a uniied
way!” she said.
For Democrats who spent
last week throwing stones at
Republicans’ troubled conven-
tion in Cleveland, the scene
was a painful reminder of their
own glass house. On the eve
of the four-day spectacle, the
19,000 hacked emails pub-
lished by WikiLeaks appeared
to show top oficials at the sup-
posedly neutral Democratic
National Committee working
to tip the scales toward Clin-
ton, even suggesting reporters
should question Sanders’ faith.
Wasserman Schultz denied the

cratic National Convention.
accusation, but was forced out
as chief Sunday.
The FBI issued a statement
Monday saying it is investigat-
ing the hack.
“A compromise of this nature
is something we take very seri-
ously, and the FBI will continue
to investigate and hold account-
able those who pose a threat in
cyberspace,” it said.
Clinton campaign oficials
pointed the inger for the hack
at Russian military intelligence
agencies. They accused Rus-
sia of trying to meddle in the
U.S. election and favoring GOP
nominee Donald Trump.
“We don’t have informa-
tion right now about that, but
what we have is a kind of bro-
mance going on between Vlad-
imir Putin and Trump which is
distinct from this leak,” Clinton
adviser John Podesta said in an
MSNBC interview.
Trump dismissed the sug-
gestion in a tweet: “The joke in
town is that Russia leaked the
disastrous DNC emails, which
should never have been writ-
ten (stupid), because Putin likes
me.”
It wasn’t immediately clear
how WikiLeaks received cop-
ies of the internal Democratic
emails. Party oficials learned in
late April that their systems had
been attacked after they discov-
ered malicious software on their
computers.
A cybersecurity irm they
employed found traces of at
least two sophisticated hack-
ing groups on their network —
both of which have ties to the
Russian government. Those
hackers took at least a year’s
worth of detailed chats, emails
and research on Trump, accord-
ing to a person knowledge-
able of the breach who wasn’t
authorized to speak publicly
about the matter.
Kaine liberal appeal muted by energy ties, abortion concerns
By STEPHEN BRAUN
and EILEEN SULLIVAN
Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Hillary
Clinton and running mate Tim
Kaine are closely aligned on
many issues, but Kaine’s cau-
tious, left-leaning political pro-
ile in a closely contested state
is blurred by his ties to energy
industry interests and his per-
sonal qualms over abortion.
The Virginia senator is
regarded as a careful, ear-
nest politician who has navi-
gated the rough-and-tumble of
his state’s hard-fought electoral
landscape with few ethical mis-
steps. Minor controversies have
lared over paid travel and gifts
he received during his stints as
governor and senator.
A Harvard-trained lawyer
who prospered as Richmond’s
mayor before moving on to
higher ofice, Kaine endorsed
Clinton early in her presidential
run, in contrast to 2008 when
he backed Barack Obama over
Clinton early on.
In sync on a number of
issues, Kaine and Clinton back
a no-ly zone over Syria despite
the Obama administration’s
reluctance.
Kaine, who was governor
when a gunman with a history
of mental illness fatally shot 32
people at Virginia Tech before
killing himself, shares Clinton’s
support for gun control. He sup-
ports restricting the sale of mag-
azines carrying more than 10
bullets; Clinton wants to ban
military-style guns she calls
“weapons of war.”
Both share concerns on edu-
cation, health care and a tax
overhaul.
Offshore oil
Clinton came out against
offshore oil drilling while cam-
paigning in 2015 and expressed
approval this year when Pres-
ident Barack Obama blocked
all exploration off the Eastern
Seaboard in the Atlantic Ocean.
Kaine consistently has spon-
sored legislation that would
have opened Virginia’s coast to
drilling.
As governor, Kaine said in
2008: “We’re not going to drill
our way out of the long-term
energy crisis facing this nation.”
But in 2013, he and Sen. Mark
Warner, D-Va., sponsored legis-
lation that would have set a ive-
year leasing plan allowing oil
drilling off Virginia’s coast and
providing at least 35 percent of
revenues to the state. In 2015,
Kaine again joined Warner and
a group of East Coast senators
pushing an offshore drilling plan.
Oil and gas interests rank
with law irms and investment
and technology companies
among Kaine’s strong campaign
inanciers.
Oil and gas companies
donated nearly $60,000 to
Kaine for his 2011 campaign,
including $35,000 from Domin-
ion Resources Inc., the Rich-
mond-based utility that supplies
electricity and natural gas to Vir-
ginia and other neighboring and

ciety Mosque in Sterling, Va., Thursday.
eastern states.
Dominion donated more
than $250,000 to Kaine’s state-
wide political campaigns and
inaugurations between 2001 and
2008, according to the Virginia
Public Access Project, a nonpar-
tisan open government group.
Some state environmental-
ists said Kaine, as governor,
helped undermine clean-coal
and other anti-pollution efforts
in Virginia. Vivian Elizabeth
Thomson, a University of Vir-
ginia professor who served on
the state’s Air Pollution Con-
trol Board under Kaine, said his
administration undercut their
efforts to impose tough stan-
dards on a coal-ired Dominion
power plant in Wise, Virginia.
David Botkins, a Domin-
ion spokesman, said Kaine “has
supported the development
of affordable, cleaner energy
sources in Virginia and through-
out the United States.”
Leaders of two national envi-
ronmental groups, the League
of Conservation Voters and the
Sierra Club, voiced approval of
Clinton’s choice of Kaine, who
backs Obama on climate change
and opposed construction of the
Keystone XL pipeline.
Tiernan Sittenfeld, an ofi-
cial with the league’s political
action fund, said Kaine had an
“impressive” record of support
for the group’s issues. League
members were also among
Kaine’s top funders in his 2012
Senate election.
Reproductive rights
Clinton and Kaine are avowed
champions of women’s repro-
ductive rights. But as a self-de-
scribed “traditional Catholic,”
Kaine has long said he person-
ally opposes abortion, a stance
that drew criticism from wom-
en’s groups. His personal qualms
could cause complications later
in the campaign when he debates
Republican rival Mike Pence, an
anti-abortion crusader.
During his 2005 race for
governor, Kaine said he would
promote adoption and absti-
nence education — programs
long stressed by anti-abortion
forces. Once in ofice, he infu-
riated Planned Parenthood and
other reproductive rights groups
by allowing the sale of “Choose
Life” license plates. Portions
of proceeds went to pregnancy
centers and adoption programs.
Since 2012, Kaine has had a
100 percent voting record from
NARAL Pro-Choice Amer-
ica, a political group opposing
restrictions on abortion. In an
appearance on NBC’s “Meet the
Press,” Kaine acknowledged the
public contortion of his stance
even as he was being consid-
ered by the Clinton campaign as
a possible running mate.
“I’ve got a personal feeling
about abortion, but the right role
for government is to let women
make their own decisions,”
Kaine said.
Despite their occasional pol-
icy discordancy, Kaine and Clin-
ton have hired some of the same
staffers in recent years. Kaine’s
Senate chief of staff, Mike
Henry, was deputy campaign
manager for Clinton’s 2008 pres-
idential run. Kaine’s former Sen-
ate press secretary, Sarah Peck, is
already working as Clinton’s Vir-

ginia campaign spokeswoman.
Kaine’s most recent Sen-
ate inancial disclosure shows
that his net worth is between
$647,000 and $1.9 mil-
lion. Between $130,000 and
$300,000 of his investments,
listed as owned by one of his
children, are in energy corpora-
tions, among them Duke Energy
Corp., Chevron Corp. and
Exxon Mobil Corp.
In June, Kaine acknowl-
edged he failed to disclose that
his stay at a Spanish resort was
paid by a nonproit tied to a lob-
bying irm. Kaine had helped
organize and attended a confer-
ence in September 2014 hosted
by the U.S.-Spain Council, a
group that works to cement
political and business ties
between the two nations.
Kaine, who is the nonproit’s
honorary chairman, later told
The Associated Press that Sen-
ate ethics staffers advised his
own staff that the council should
cover his costs.
As governor, Kaine accepted
more than $160,000 in gifts and
paid travel, according to state
reports. The gifts were legal
under the state’s permissive eth-
ics rules, but his willingness to
accept them could become an
issue during the presidential
campaign.
Among those gifts was
$2,000 in travel paid by Domin-
ion for meetings of two national
governors’ conferences and to
watch George Mason Universi-
ty’s basketball team play in the
NCAA Final Four in 2006.
