*California's filing deadline was on December 15. So even if Biden drops out, Gavin Newsom is out of luck. It looks like Trump versus Kamala Harris now. Harris has the one vote that counts -- Hillary Clinton's. [[User:PeterKa|PeterKa]] ([[User talk:PeterKa|talk]]) 03:04, December 25, 2023 (EST)

:[[DNC]] can still override all that. The DNC ultimately decides on its nominee, not the primary voters. [[User:RobSmith|RobS]]<sup>[[User talk:RobSmith|''Zelensky didn't kill himself'']]</sup> 04:06, December 25, 2023 (EST)
:[[DNC]] can still override all that. The DNC ultimately decides on its nominee, not the primary voters.
:Any advantage Kamala would have would only come after the nominating convention if she were nominated and the presidential nominee dropped out or died. Before that, it's wide open.
:The unelected [[Superdelegate]]s function as a break or veto on the voters. In a 2-way contest, they can stomp out anyone with a plurality of 40% or better of delegates won at the ballot box.
:There are something like 264 committeemen (the number can vary) in the DNC who hold ultimate power. The [[RNC]] has 168 - 3 from each state and from the 6 territories (Guam, Puerto Rice, etc). Democrat Superdelegates with voting power can be awarded honorarily, or they can be purchased by donors. How they are selected or awarded, and by whom, remains somewhat of a mystery.
