Aren't the electors middle ranked party members? This is like saying all of the electoral college reps for president voted correctly. But of course the party acts as one due to deliberation and democratic centralism, the point is to be cohesive and put your best foot forward and not infight openly to the public and make their opinion of you worse for no gain. All of the talks are usually internal to the party, vote percentage is nonsensical. What people vote for in this society are the lower level reps whom they can talk with personally, sometimes these lower reps are at ratios of 100:1 in best instances, so it's very easy to voice anger and get help with issues and demand they change their votes for the higher offices. It also becomes easier to unseat them and take the spot yourself.
It's like the DNC where everyone votes for Kamala Harris without a primary.
It’s nothing like that. Fucking sad…
How not?
How not? How dumb are you when you say “everyone voted for” but then try to make it sound like Kamala was installed without votes????
How can you mistake a primary for a full electoral vote? How fucking dense do you have to be to consider a democratic primary the same as Stalinist BS?
You are basically telling the world that you are too dense to tell the difference between bureaucracy and your own icky feelings…
She was. Genocide Joe had his dementia on full display during the 27 June Presidential debate and then almost a month later he dropped out and ~~apointed her~~ endorsed her as his successor and all the DNC superdelegates hopped on board. She never faced a primary in '24.
I'm not even going to address the rest of your post because it's even more nonsense than the bit I commented about.
