Bernie Sanders says it's 'outrageous' for New York to cancel its primary

[shockedcanadian]

Uh oh, Bernie isn't happy. Imagine how his supporters feel.

I think Trump can recruit a good number of his supporters, no matter what Bernie says. His own supporters were calling this out early, regardless Bernie, truthfully or just for optics; is calling it out too. He could be just feigning shock, who knows, but his supporters feel mistreated, yet again

In the world of politics, this could be an odd golden opportunity for Trump, as long as he remains the anti-Establishment candidate.

Bernie Sanders says it's 'outrageous' for New York to cancel its primary

Although he technically dropped out, Sanders could still rack up delegates, giving him more leverage to influence the party's platform

New York canceled its June 23 presidential primary in response to the coronavirus pandemic, citing a state law that permits the vote to be called off if the races are uncontested.

Bernie Sanders’s campaign said the decision was an “outrage,” and called upon the Democratic National Committee to reverse it.

Sixteen states and one territory have postponed votes or moved to mail-only ballots, but New York is the first state to cancel its primary altogether. It was initially slated to hold the vote on April 28 but that was postponed until June by Governor Andrew Cuomo in late March. State election officials said they decided to call off the election to protect public health and because Joe Biden was unopposed for the Democratic nomination after Sanders’s withdrawal from the race earlier this month.

He still holds his delegates.

He didn't withdraw. He "suspended".

Sanders is a buffoon. The asshat dropped out and endorsed Biden ffs.

What about the down-ballot primaries? Aren't there people running for judgeships, mayor, truant officer, and whatnot?

The decision to cancel was definitely political. It stinks. Isn't New York competent enough to stage an election under trying circumstances? If Amazon had an analogous problem they would figure it out.

Bernie doesn’t care. He is showing faux outrage for his followers that have contributed to him.

Wuhan virus lockdowns are working perfectly for Democrats so far.
