I don't think this is really that great of an "electoralism is fuck" argument, since Harris is literally on the ballot.

She’s on it cause Biden put her there, not because anyone voted for her. She didn’t win a single delegate.

she dropped out before several weeks before iowa and was polling fourth in her home state of california if I recall correctly

Yeah she clearly had no chance at becoming president because no one wanted her to win, and yet thanks to democracy she will probably get to hold that position anyway.

Yeah. It's not a case like how Truss and Sunak became British prime ministers.
