    Here’s the bad news - the primary is over

    It’s not tho.

    The convention is the end of the primary.

    Biden appointed Jamie Harrison to the head of the DNC.

    And Jamie Harrison set the convention for mid August.

    If you don’t like it, go complain to them. But they picked when the primary was over.

      If someone else wins the convention I’ll pop a bottle of champagne but I think it’s nearly impossible. If you can get Whitehouse on the ballot though… I’ll buy the next round.

        So…

        You don’t think it’s possible the DNC or Biden does the right thing to maximize our chances of beating trump?

        The primary isn’t a real election. The DNC can just nominate someone else, they’ve been very open about it

        And Biden can obviously just step aside.

        Do you think they don’t care if trump wins? Or that they’d just rather that happen then a Dem candidate Dem voters want winning?

          I think it’d lead to vote splitting within the party if not done precisely correctly. We could essentially be looking at a Woodrow Wilson scenario.

            The party says who is on the ballot…

            I really don’t think a significant amount of voters would write in Biden over any listed Dem.
