On the one hand I think it's kind of a waste of time to have all these candidates. But on the other hand, they bring national attention to various issues
As long as when the time comes to choose between Creepy/Sleepy/Grabby Biden and Crazy Bernie, they don't throw their vote in for someone else (thereby sealing a really unfortunate and unwanted Biden VS Trump battle)
Then again, like 3v6en8 said too, the DNC process is pretty broken anyways
So individual voters don't really mean all that much when it comes to picking a democratic nominee ughhh
What’s wrong with the DNC process?
Btw, you can’t say that trump’s approval rating with minorities is higher this time around than 2016, because he didn’t have an approval rating in 2016
delegates are suppose to vote with their state while superdelegates can do what ever they want
delegates are elected but superdelegates are not
thats where the sus things happen with party elections
I dont think trump really needs votes from minorities; he lost his mojo with maga so the elections going to be hard
and a lot of people are jumping onto the band wagon on who hates trump the most; thats the new election process
Ok so- firstly most superdelegates are elected
They also are barred from voting on the first ballot, which means they’re essentially tiebreakers now
Second- the parties are not lower-case-d democratic institutions
The super delegates are the party leaders, they are just deciding who they want to nominate
Only 20 (2.7%) of the superdelegates are not elected
And those are all former elected officials, like Obama, Clinton and Carter are among those 20
is it only 20?
that doesnt seem that much
Yeah, it’s not that much
i guess most super delegates are elected in some way
still, superdelegates fucked bernie 15% of the nomination
@Platinum Spark I didn't mention anything about approval ratings, I said that he's gaining more minority support.
Hopefully that clears up my statement
