In-person early voting for the primaries begins Feb. 15 and runs through March 2. Super Tuesday is March 5

ENCNow

When Super Tuesday rolls around in 10 weeks for North Carolinians, there’ll be just one choice for Democrats and the favorite choice per polling for Republicans.

President Joe Biden will be the only name available on the Democratic primary ballot, the state’s Board of Elections has confirmed by unanimous vote. That vote by three Democrats and three Republicans also included the Grand Old Party primary ballot to be inclusive of seven names, headlined by former President Donald Trump.

The Democrat Party leaders are trying to take all of the political opponents of Joe "The Big Guy" Biden off the ballot, whether it is Democrat primary challengers or his main Republican opponent. It is all the same corrupt power play. They are going full Putin.

The Democrats are trying to freeze out Biden's primary challengers, one of whom is a sitting Democrat Congressman, and it is sad that Republicans have allowed them to do that here in North Carolina. At worst, they could have had one Republican absent for that vote and the other two vote NO to show Republican opposition. This is heavy handed machine politics by the Democrat hierarchy to force feed Biden to their voters. It is an assault on democracy by the "Democrat" Party. And, yes it is a very Soviet style ballot to be offered one choice when others are running.

Republicans have never dictated this sort of thing to our voters. I remember the first primary I was active in 1972, when Richard Nixon, the closest thing Republicans ever had to a machine politician, was being challenged by two sitting Republican congressmen, one, Congressman John Ashbrook (R-Ohio) from the right, and the other one from the left. In his announcement, Ashbrook accused Nixon of "running on George Wallace's platform (from the 1968 campaign) but carrying out Hubert Humphrey's". These challengers were not frozen out of the primary and caucus process as the Democrats are now trying to do to challengers to circle the wagons around Biden.

Why in the world would Republicans go along with the Democrats on their Soviet style ballot? This is just idiocy. But this is what you get when the despicable sellout RINOs Phil Berger and Tim Moore seize control of who the Republicans on the board are, instead of the party itself, like it has been for decades. Gerger and Moore are a cancer within the party that needs to be cut out.
