Why don’t Democrats seem more upset that they don’t get to choose their nominee question?

what I heard was that there would probably be some sort of a mini primary. Kamala would probably be the favorite, but it would be an open competition. Nope… not at all. All the heavyweights immediately piled on the endorsements and nobody had any chance of challenging her. This is the first time in presidential history that someone has been nominated without some sort of open contest. this woman is not very likable or popular. In fact, I would prefer Hillary to her.

The Democrats are totalitarians, not democrats with a small "d". They don't care about freedom of speech, free markets, and free democratic political processes. And not only for themselves, they want to impose their totalitarianism on everyone.

To those who want to claim Harris would have been the choice in an open primary system, that is laughable. She had to drop out before the primaries in 2020 and there's no reason to think she's more popular now. The Democrats have not had anything but rigged primaries since 2008. You can excuse 2012 since Obama was an incumbent, but not the three since then.

LOL at the fake "moderate Democrat". (save your cliche speech about not being the gatekeeper of who is what and blah blah blah). Everything isn't rigged because people run unopposed. You all enjoy voting for Cornell West. The VP is always the obvious choice and no one else ran. If you want to be a conspiracy theorist about everything, my old party the Republicans are right for you. As a now independent, I'm glad to have a candidate who isn't 80 and senile or a criminal convict conman. I don't care why, I'm just glad one of the parties was smart enough to fix it. Whichever one was smart enough to was going to win. The fact that no one else jumped at the opportunity to run is their own fault.

We've been fucked since Al gore.

Roll up in a voting booth in Florida and make heads or tails of that ballot format. Not saying it's malleus or conspiracy but all out poor design and functionality. Fun fact why we have the national debt we have started with Bush Jr.

Then obama getting robbed of supreme court picks half a year left from election. While don get his last pick what a month before election.

This is hopefully the time democrats actually play as dirty as Republicans now. Fuck it.

They have not figured out that THE DEMOCRATIC COMMUNIST PARTY OF AMERICA just fucked them! They took away their right to vote for the person THEY want to run for president not shift votes from Biden to Harris whom the people might not want for president. This is what you get with the Democrats! FUCKED AGAIN !!!

Us moderate Democrats are upset, it's the radical left who seems OK with the DNC hand picking the candidate after Biden won a rigged primary. I'll never vote Democrat again, not after they rigged the primary for one candidate only to hand pick another candidate. I'll never support or vote for Trump, and sure as hell won't be voting for Harris after the crap the DNC pulled with the primary and the non-contestable convention.

Pretty sure if we were unhappy our electors would know it. We’re pretty chill when she seems to have her groove now:

Because from what I understand most would want her anyway thats why many are not upset

[strateguy632]

But nobody wanted her during primary. They wanted bifen or ohilips who got votes.

I will sacrifice democratic process to protect democracy itself. Its messy but these are extraordinary times.

[OtterMan68]

seems to me the GOP is more upset and democrats are relieved.

So, you'd rather take a step down?
