The Democratic National Committee ruled that the New Hampshire election effectively won’t count and the winner won’t amass New Hampshire’s 23 delegates in the march to the party’s nomination.
Some New Hampshire Democrats are definitely upset.
In 2020, Biden finished a disappointing fifth in a crowded Democratic primary that saw some 300,000 votes cast. State officials expect less than 100,000 votes this year.
And it’s the party’s right to choose a state that isn’t 93% white to hold their first primary. That’s the reason they wanted to change it, so maybe a state that’s more representative of the party and of POC go first.
You’re also really reading a lot into my comment which is just about NH creating this clusterfuck. They could have gone second, and okay maybe Biden would’ve done poorly there and the delegates would actually matter. Instead the state government chose this.
Which is honestly a shame, because I’m not itching for another 4 years of aiding, abetting, or at least acquiescing to a genocide.
… Uh huh.
I’m sure it has nothing to do with the reasons I outlined above that resulted in the first black president.
I’m also sure the other five States that removed everyone from the ballot except Biden is completely unrelated.
Biden losses against Trump.
This shit of trying to excuse the Democratic party of doing everything it can to prevent Biden from having to face even the appearance of Democratic competition is the best thing to do if you want Trump to be reelected.
That’s the OFFICIAL reason. The REAL reasons are
A: South Carolina is a lot more conservative, which is better for their favorite candidates such as Biden and
B: they owe conservative member of the DNC leadership/the Representative from PHRMA Jim Clyburn for almost single-handedly saving the Biden campaign with his well-timed endorsement of the most conservative candidate in the race.
