The true threat to the demise of our democracy lies with the Democrats, not Donald Trump.
The Florida Democratic Executive Committee has announced that in the upcoming primary elections, the ballot will singularly feature the name of Joe Biden, effectively excluding any potential challengers within the party.
This decision has led to an uproar among certain Democrat factions and civil liberty advocates who argue that the action stifles democratic principles.
The primary, which typically serves as a platform for party members to choose their preferred candidate for the general election, will not accommodate write-in candidates either, a departure from traditional election practices. This means that voters disenchanted with Biden’s performance will be without a recourse to express their dissent in the primary voting process.
With presidential primaries looming, there is only one name on the official list of Democratic presidential candidates in Florida — President Biden — a move that angered the incumbent’s long-shot challengers, who say they’re being unfairly left out.
The decision is the latest setback for Rep. Dean Phillips (D-Minn.) and Marianne Williamson, both of whom trail Biden in public polling and fundraising.
Under Florida rules, the state’s party votes on who will appear on primary ballots. Florida’s Democratic Party said in a statement Friday that the executive committee voted unanimously late last month to name Biden, and only Biden, to its list of candidates.
