    There’s not actually time though? Primaries are over and Biden has enough delegates. A third party just hurts his chances.

        Every remaining state could give 100% of their vote to some other candidate. Biden would still have a majority of delegates.

          So due to our primary system Dems in some states don’t get a say…

          But it’s still not a big deal that NH kept voting progressive so they got kicked to the back of the line?

          Well, they had their primary delegates taken away because they refused to break state election law under order of the DNC…

          But you’re fine with the DNC scheduling primaries to favor “moderates” and suppress the progressive states?

          Cool.

          I’m not.

          Have a great day arguing that democracy is an important part of the Democratic party platform.

            When did I say any of that? I’m repeating the facts, not giving my stance on those topics.

              I said:

              Lots of states haven’t even held primaries…

              You said:

              Every remaining state could give 100% of their vote to some other candidate. Biden would still have a majority of delegates.

              I don’t know what else you could have meant besides everyone who hasn’t voted in a primary yet don’t matter.

              So I asked about the states who are always scheduled last, why their voice is never heard.

              But I remember attempting to explain a lot of stuff to you before, I don’t think its ever helped.

              Especially that time you told me any gun regulation was against the second amendment and unconstitutional.

              I don’t think any facts I repeat or logic I use will change your opinion.

                Also, for the record, in that conversation that you somehow held onto for months and months, I repeated SCOTUS’ rulings. Once again, you are conflating me stating facts with my opinion on the constitution or elections. I never stated my interpretation of 2A or primary fairness.

                It’s a fact, yes. People in the remaining states don’t matter in the 2024 primaries. You made claims about my thoughts on the matter.

                It sounds like maybe you struggle with adding your emotions in when reading facts from others? Or, more realistically, you’re farming downvotes and trolling
