    This isn’t the Biden admin. This is because the DNC set the date for their convention to officially select the party candidate so late that it’s after State deadlines. Who knows why they made that decision, it’s not the first they have, and the DNC aren’t the only ones. The Republicans did the same thing in 2016 when Trump was elected. Alabama had to pass a law to extend the deadline for the RNC to select late that election.

      Could be that the DNC, like the bunch of entitled idiots that they are, assumed that the rules weren’t important and people would make an exception for them.
