"Organizers also said they are not being divisive rather, its the party leaders who are overruling the grassroots who are being divisive, they argued. They point to exit polls showing that majorities of Democratic primary voters across states are in favor of Medicare for All."
It is about supporting actual, on the ground, Democrats wishes.
It is not a threat to not vote for Biden, they are committed to campaigning and raising money for him, this is only about voting for the overall platform, and they do not have the votes to stop it no matter what.
It is......about time Democrats championed M4A and listened to the American voter rather than big insurance industry lobbyists.
I hope that they can come to a compromise in that the Democratic party platform can include language that commits to working towards M4A, as an eventual goal.
