ONCE AND FOR ALL, FELLOW DEMOCRATS: THE PARTY AND COUNTRY NEED BIDEN. (caps for EMphasis, not shouting)

[Voltaire2]

103. I did not make the claim that it is illegal

or unconstitutional for the Democratic Party to change who it nominates, or for elected party delegates to vote for any other candidate.

All it takes is for the person making these claims to cite the relevant state or federal laws or the section of the constitution.

In general, when arguing, it is the responsibility of a person making a claim to provide some evidence for that claim.

Theoretically I could do a search of all federal and state laws in order to prove that no such law exists. It would obviously be easier for somebody to come up with one example of such a law.

On the other hand the claims are ridiculous. How political parties regulate their conventions is entirely up to those parties. The delegates are required *by party rules* to vote for the candidate they were elected to vote for, but only for the first round. In addition, there are processes in place, again set up entirely by the parties, not by any government, for contingencies such as a delegates candidate withdrawing.

The claim that this would be illegal needs some evidence to back it up.
