The Democratic National Committee is moving ahead with its plans to virtually nominate President Joe Biden in the coming weeks, sending out an email to its members Wednesday morning stressing that that is “the wisest approach” despite fierce backlash from some Democratic lawmakers.
Is this your first time voting? The same thing happens every election year in down ballot races. If you don’t like the candidate, you can always write-in vote.
Again, when was this and why was Biden allowed to run unopposed on my primary ballot?
He was opposed by Dean Philips, Jason Palmer, and Marianne Williamson. They all dropped out.
Again, when was this and why weren’t they on my ballot?
They weren’t on your ballot because they dropped out before your primary or they failed to meet ballot requirements.
So we didn’t have a primary, then. Thanks for clarifying that for me.
You had a primary with no challengers.

I.e., not a primary at all.
This isn’t a downballot position, but even if it was, the lack of choice would still render the primary moot.
I did.
“Uncommitted” was very popular in my state. I hope they win.
If you voted uncommitted or write-in then congratulations, you voted in a primary. Which means there was a primary.
If there wasn’t any competition then it wasn’t a primary, it was a formality.
