"SNIP.......

Fox News: “With recent news that fringe 2020 Democratic presidential candidate Marianne Williamson is headed to New Hampshire in the coming weeks, and with word this week that environmental lawyer and anti-COVID vaccine crusader Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will hold an event in the state early next month, the possibility of potential primary challenges to Biden is moving a bit closer to reality.”

The original source of this news item is Fox, so there's that.

That happened in 2008, I think it was Michigan? They moved their primary out of their agreed-upon slot, so the DNC didn't count their delegates. It was part of the grievance that the PUMAs had because Hillary won the primary - although everyone knew it wouldn't count beforehand.

if a state goes too early, as NH is threatening to do, the DNC forbids candidates from campaigning in that state.

they never go away, always bent on disruption. That Kennedy should be in a mental institution.

You’ll find that there are actually hundreds of people who register as Democratic Presidential candidates. Additionally, New Hampshire only requires paying a fee to get on the Primary ballot.

Biden winning 90% against the field comes off as a string result.
