Voting will begin Thursday and will conclude on August 5, the release said. Votes for anyone other than Harris will be tallied as “present.” According to an Associated Press survey, Harris was the overwhelming choice of convention delegates to replace Biden as the party’s standard-bearer and face Republican former President Donald Trump on the ballot in November.
Under party rules, a candidate qualifies to compete for the nomination by submitting a notarized declaration of candidacy, meeting legal requirements to be president and securing the electronic signatures of at least 300 delegates, with no more than 50 signatures from any one delegation counting toward the 300 minimum.

Think of it in light of the old Soviet Union…they got to vote just like us Americans but their choice was chosen for them by The Party. Hey, sounds just like the democrat party. Hmmm…..
Selected. Not elected.
They will have a “vote” to nominate the only person on the ballot. Then at the convention they will have another ‘vote’ for ceremonial purposes, and she will give an “acceptance speech.” And AP reports all this charade with a straight face.
I have not read that the DNC paid back that loan from 2016 that gave her control of the party until the Clinton Crime Family Foundation was paid back.
“Under party rules”
I guess they’re following the rules now.
And the media will airbrush her image.
Democracy at work.
Make it official, and let’s have a debate.
That should be an interesting spectacle.

I give them credit; Socialist Democrats fall into LOCKSTEP when they are told to!
Where’s Bernie? Where’s Pocahontas Warren? Where’s Bloomberg? Where’s Tulsi? Marianne Williamson for pete’s sake! Even Mayor PETE, for Pete’s sake! THEY ALL WANTED TO BE PRESIDENT! Heels Up never even MADE THE CUT!
Kamala Harris - Withdrew on 12-3-2019 with only 129 electoral votes BEFORE THE IOWA CAUCUS!
Why are everyday Democrats (are there any left?) not screaming about this?!?!
Oh, never mind. Those mindless hive-drones don’t even know how the system is supposed to work. They think it’s a Popularity Contest or that they’re ‘voting’ on ‘Dancing with the Stars!” UGH!

China, Venezuela, Iran andThe Democrat Party Crime families approve.
Harris’ husband has close ties to China.
It makes sense why the dimrat party chose her because Xi told them to pick kamala.
“Think of it in light of the old Soviet Union”
Yep, the delegates can vote for anyone they want to, as long as it’s Harris. Dems taking a page from the commie handbook, excellent!
Capture one or both of the political parties in the United States.Socialist Republicans are also falling in lockstep with the other side of the Uniparty. If the GOP were all MAGA instead, the Democrats would be powerless.

Selected, not elected. Commie-la is a poster child for DEI.
Democrats are WEIRD like that.
The People’s Democratic presidential candidate, Comrade.
How Venezuelan of the DNC
Sure. You're free to vote for anyone...The Party approves of. So this is what they meant by "Our Democracy"? It's just like...Nazi Germany all over again...
It's not a secret ballot, but a central party loyalty test, or for rats with stage 4 mental illness, a way to order suicide-by-mob online. Amazingly, the tabulation will be unanimous, and highly touted by deep state media.
