Um…
the voters kinda did the nominating…
Edit: To clarify what I mean. People who voted in the Democratic primary didn’t exactly vote for Biden, but voted for delegates that pledge to vote to Biden at the convention. Those delegates then can vote for who they think the people who voted for them would want when Biden dropped out. The delegates decided the voters would’ve wanted Harris since shes the VP, and that’s probably what the voter would’ve want.
If you argue that Biden only won the 2024 nomination because of 2020. Well yea voters voted for him in 2020 too. 🤷♂️
People need to vote in primaries.
That doesn’t sound like a very democratic process to begin with cause all the power is in the delegates who can just choose whoever they want and not follow the desires of the voters. Which is how pretty much the whole system works to begin with, so its pretty rotten even at the very bottom
It doesn’t sound democratic because thats is what America is. This system of an intermediate group of people between voters and the electer official is why America is the way is is today. ahem Electoral College ahem
If trump wasn’t elected president in 2016, we would not even have this fascist mess to begin with.
