This is the money quote “But under Democratic National Committee rules, New Hampshire also has 8 “superdelegates,” party officials who are free to commit to whomever they like, regardless of how their state votes. Their votes count the same as delegates won through the primary.”

Allows the Democrat party to control the course of the “electoral” event.

Basically what I posted, but I targeted the Democrats as they were the issue in the article. I probably should have stated involvement by both the political parties.

It’s got to change regardless. This isn’t how the system is supposed to work. These political parties aren’t supposed to be the decision makers for the leadership of our country. The people are supposed to be making the decision on their leadership by the offerings presented.

A whole lot of issues need to be course corrected in our political system. We’ve allowed the inmates to take over the asylum.
