Former Nevada caucus site leader quits after refusing to sign NDA over caucus technology
The Nevada Democratic Party has been asking caucus site leaders to sign a NDA as they receive their iPads and other caucus materials. This volunteer refused.

(32,400 posts)2. CNN's version:
A Nevada State Democratic Party official told CNN that it's standard practice to request staff and volunteers to sign an NDA because they are privy to strategic information and said the party also required NDAs in 2018.
CNN obtained a copy of one of the four-page agreements which states, in part, "I will take all measures necessary to protect the secrecy of, and avoid disclosure and unauthorized use of, Confidential Information of the NSDP."
The NDA appears to be one that is used for other purposes by the NSDP, since it also references activities other than the caucuses.
"If I am a volunteer and answering phones at the NSDP office or volunteering at an official NSDP event, I am a representative of the NSDP and am not authorized to speak to the press unless given permission by the Executive Director or Communications Director."
