Biden's out

Lazaran said:
So:

It is now a LOCK that WHOEVER the Democratic nominee eventually turns out to be will win in November, because ALL those young voters, and ALL those who took issue with President Biden’s Israel-Gaza policy will flock to the ballot box - and ALL the older voters of various political leanings who preferred President Biden over Trump will support the new nominee 100%.

(And everything will go smoothly from a legal standpoint when it comes to ballots and the election itself.)

COOL!!!

👍

🇺🇸

Side note:

I will definitely vote for whoever the Democratic nominee is, so any potential rise or decline in support for the eventual nominee will not be due to any action on my part.

👍

All of those nearly 3,800 Biden delegates have now become free agents. Even with Biden’s endorsement, the delegates who were pledged to him are under no obligation, according to the Democratic National Committee’s rules, to follow his lead and support his chosen successor.

Looks like 2 states bind their delegates to Biden for the first round
https://ballotpedia.org/What_happen...en_at_the_convention_if_he_does_not_withdraw?
Fourteen states have laws binding presidential convention delegates to vote according to how they were allocated after the state's primary, but 12 of those states allow delegates to be released when a candidate withdraws or after a specific number of rounds of voting at the national convention.

A fine job? Millions crossing the Southern border. Including murderers, rapists, drug dealers, and other assorted criminals. If that's doing a fine job, I'd hate to see what would be going on if he wasn't. And who is his border tzar? Yep, the cackling hyena he's endorsing. God help us.

But some I assume are good people.

Going to edit my prior post here because this is a fast moving conversation.

The link you gave doesn't say what you think it says. For instance, in the first footnote there's a link to the 2016 DNC rules. Those rules say:



That means for at least the 1st round, pledged delegates must vote for the candidate who won their state because that candidate is toward whom their votes were allocated.


After that they are free to vote for a candidate who is nominated and who falls under the rules for such a nomination. I'm not sure if that includes only those who fall under the 15 percent rule or not.

No, they are “pledged”, not obligated. Take 2016 as an example there were lots of Hilary and Bernie delegates. None of them were bound by primary and caucus voters.

I am currently in process of reviewing the rules. I don't think your quick snap of something from google is correct. I could be wrong, and I freely admit I'm not an expert on DNC bylaws ans rules (hence my current unfinished review) but I don't think that's correct.

Basically we're in uncharted territory and fast google searches are often incorrect in their results.

Nah, not worth it. Ramble on my wayward friend. :)

DNC party rules allow a substitute candidate but that candidate swap isn't automatic. In the primary voters voted for delegates at the convention. Those delegates are bound by the voters' choice but are relieved of that binding after a set number of rounds where there is no winner at the convention. At that point it's a free for all. You can't just swap out Joe for Kamala, she has to be nominated the candidate at the convention.

Kamala doesn't get access to campaign money until she actually becomes the nominee after the convention. Neither does anyone else.

So for the next few weeks there is no Democrat nominee, presumptive or otherwise, and no spending can be done by the campaign. Not even to make yard signs.

Sweetie, it’s nap time.

Ah, not just plain Jeff, it's the derogatory name-calling Jeff, that's come to the table. Bye Jeff.
