The party of "saving democracy" sure likes taking presidential candidates off ballot | Eastern NC Now

The party that always claims to be about "saving democracy" actually has a horrible record of trying to take presidential candidates off the ballot, and it did not start with forcing out Joe Biden.  The party ought  to call itself the Un-Democratic Party.

They started with their own primares.  Not only did they blatantly rearrange the schedule to benefit Biden and make it difficult for challanegers, and banned a presidential primary debate, but they actively worked to keep challengers off of state presidential primary ballots, inlcuding that in North Carolina.  The result was many Soviet style ballots with only one candidate listed that voters could vote for, even though there were challengers also seeking the position.

Then there was an organized campaign to take President Trump off of Republican primary ballots.  That campaign was led by a Biden political appointee.  They temporarily succeeded in Colorado where four Democrat Supreme Court justices who were Democrat political contributors overruled three Democrat Supreme Court justices who kept their noses out of politics.  One of our Democrat state board of elections members here in North Carolina was working on the same project.  This scheme was brought to a screaching halt by a unanimously ruling from the US Supreme Court.

More recently Democrats have orchestrated a campaign to take rival liberal independents and third party candidates off of the presidential ballots, including Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.  It doen's matter that those candidates have followed all the legal rules to qualify.  Democrat Secretaries of States or Boards of Election, kick them off anyway.  One of the states that this assaualt on democracy has so far been successful is here in North Carolina.
