I agree that it's an outrage the way Joe and 14 million dem party primary voters were treated. This is GOP SCOTUS in 2000 disenfranchising our entire country and stealing Al Gore's victory all over again. I have great faith in V.P. Harris but I'm terrified. This election is a matter of life and death for women.
