      Her name was on the ballot in 2020, everyone who voted for Biden also voted for Harris.

      You appear to be conservative, so here is the best online course I could find to teach you about the U.S. Constitution:

      America’s Written Constitution by Yale University on Coursera:

      • Covers themes like popular sovereignty, separation of powers, federalism, and rights.
      • Taught by Professor Akhil Reed Amar.
      • Includes videos, readings, and quizzes.

      Let me know when you’ve completed it and we can have a real big boy conversation ;)

      She also hasn’t been elected to anything yet? There’s nothing undemocratic about a party choosing who it wants to run in an election internally.

      People are free not to vote for her in the general. It’s looking like this isn’t really an issue though.

      Accusing others of hypocrisy is not a winning move for blatant hypocrites.
