Bet Dems tightened upafter 08, and haven’t stopped taking steps to normalizing that primaries are performative and regardless of votes, they can do what they want.
Even a decade ago people would have lost their minds if Republicans canceled a states primary.
Dems did it and everyone keeps saying it’s nothing to worry about.
Tldr: DNC told New Hampshire to break a state law or they’d take their delegates, they didn’t break the law, so no delegates
The DNC told New Hampshire State Dem party they had to hold their primary later.
NH state law says they have to be first.
Republicans control NH state government.
The DNC order the NH state Dem party to break state law, when they didnt they removed delegates from the state making it literally pointless. And Biden also claimed he wouldn’t run it because of the date.
To make it more fucked up, Bidens campaign then spent a lot of donior money on a write in campaign for the primary he was supposed to be not running.
All so the media could try to spin this as a positive for Biden instead of a progressive winning NH again.
Underdogs used to sneak in.

If you’re going to ask that question, you usually only get a good answer if you’re specific.
Canceling primaries? Did that happen? I thought that would be clear but sorry if it wasn’t.
