    California primaries occur on March 5th my incredibly high information friend.

    How does that prevent you from voting in primaries, again?

      It means that their vote doesn’t count. I also live in a state that has one of the very last primaries, after the race is already over anyway. By the time I voted for Bernie, he had already dropped out of the race. My vote meant nothing.

        Do you know what Super Tuesday is?

          Something that happened long before my state’s primary.

          What does my vote mean when every candidate has already dropped out anyway?

              Do you have a point you want to make? We’re both saying that “but primaries!” means nothing to us when we have no voice in the primaries.

                Except the one I was actually speaking with, and whose example you popped in in support of, quite literally has one of the strongest voices in the primaries by their own example.

      By the time I vote in the presidential primary there is typically one name on my ballot.

            Unless there was some deeper meaning to stating the date that Cali primaries occurred on this year…?

            … have you ever actually voted in a primary…?

        Sometimes its because of superdelegates, sometimes its because of a mysterious series of coin flips, sometimes its because primaries are cancelled this year.
