Rules can be changed and they have a sense as to what those options are. |
No. They said only Congress has the power to enforce Section 3 of the 14th Amendment, not the states. https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/23pdf/23-719_19m2.pdf |
Your sense is as good as anyone else's. Let's hear your plan. |
The only sense I get is that it’s all rigged for Trump. I mean how else can a convicted criminal be on the ballot? |
All SCOTUS rulings have an asterisk that said this does not apply to republicans or anything against trumps interest. So a state keeping Biden off the ballot(ie Ohio) SCOTUS will make happen. |
Does not apply to Ohio keeping Biden off the ballot. |
+1 It’s all for Trump. They know they’d lose in a landslide. Screw the polls; people hate the GOP. |
Selecting a nominee is party business governed by party rules. That’s the only right answer. |
Let's be quite clear-eyed about the fact that this Supreme Court CANNOT be trusted and will have a majority that will rule in favor of Trump and against the DNC regardless of any rules, precedents, et cetera.
Thus the DNC NEEDS to have a solid plan and a solid candidate. NOT this clueless, half-assed knee-jerk navel gazing BS and circular firing squad that we are seeing right now. |
Primary voters do not nominate party candidates, delegates do. This is a DNC issue not a legal one. |
Correct. Though I understand Ohio Republicans changed its law in order to prevent the Democrats from having to do a virtual roll call to solidify a Biden candidacy. So after threatening to not change the law, Republicans suddenly reversed course and extended the deadline once it became clear Democrats were moving forward with the virtual roll call. My take? It seems that Republicans really don’t want Joe Biden on the ballot in November. |
Because everyone understands that his conviction was a scam. |
Something like 99% of the delegates are bound by DNC rules to vote for Joe Biden in first round of voting at the Convention. So it’s already Joe Biden’s nomination. The delegates are not free to vote their own choice. This is why they are trying to publicly pressure him to step down. Democrats need to get off social media. This is completely an astroturfed pressure campaign. Lots of phony enthusiasm for “replace Joe” by bot accounts. |
He already said delegates can vote their conscience and if he does step down he’ll release them, still not a legal issue. |
Personally I’m tired of hearing about the likes of Jimmy Kimmel and George Clooney having any say, beyond their single vote in the ballot box, about choosing our leadership. That goes too for all the Hollywood and Wall Street donors who think they own us. |
