National polls say Biden is still in a close race with Trump after debate | NBC News - 2 hrs ago |

Three new major national polls out Sunday morning bolstered President Joe Biden's argument to remain the Democratic Party's nominee this fall after his poor debate performance last month -- while also underscoring the structural challenges his campaign has faced for months.

The polls, from CBS News, Fox News and NBC News, were conducted before the apparent assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump Saturday in Western Pennsylvania.

Window is closing for a new strategy to consolidate the electorate ... nearly 100 days before the official poll. 🥺

ChatGPT | House Dems plot last-ditch effort to delay Biden nomination , yesterday

A drafted letter, circulated by Rep. Jared Huffman (D-Calif.) and obtained by POLITICO, offers the first public signal from Democrats since the weekend's attempted assassination on former President Donald Trump that scores of their own members remain deeply unsettled about the future of Biden's candidacy.

The move comes three days before the Democratic National Convention rules committee is scheduled to meet, when they are expected to vote on setting up the rules and dates for a virtual roll call vote.

This weekend of coalescing unity violence strategies, MSM announced a deadline for Genocide Joe's decisions—sometime on or before 27 July. My understanding is, the DNC "virtual roll cal" is tentatively scheduled 1-7 Aug.

There also are 700 automatic "superdelegates," which include members of the House and Senate, governors, state party chairs and DNC members. They are not permitted to vote on the first ballot unless it's determined that one candidate has an absolute majority of pledged delegates.

The explanation for this event that DNC offered to the press corpse is dubious.

Party leaders say the virtual roll call is necessary to avoid litigation in Ohio, which requires major parties to have a presidential nominee by 90 days from the presidential election to appear on the ballot. This year that date falls on Aug. 7.

Ohio legislators changed the state's election ballot deadline one month ago from 7 Aug (90 days) to 2 Sep (65 days) preceding 5 Nov. However, they did not remove other electoral provisions in the bill to which state democrats objected. It is difficult to discern how either "virtual" (AKA "mini-ballot") or formal DNC 19-22 Aug nominations would violate Ohio electoral laws—unless the DNC were unable to certify their state and fed nominees and electors by 2 Sep.

In fact, state regulation of political parties' corporate governance is barely legal.

A more plausible explanation for convening delegates is to count which pledged delegates (and concomitant electors), allocated to Genocide Joe, are willing and able to commit to which alternate candidate, if not his "ticket". After all, the delegates' constituents may protest their choices, though litigation would be futile. Wilding v. DNC Services Corp. proved. MSM confused reporting communicates, DNC unpledged delegates (committee members) anticipate several rounds of counting. Their challenge is, rather than organized public competition for delegate votes as in conventions past, to present to the public one nominee in effigy, if you will, of public unanimity.
