 No.  The Constitution only refers to the general election.  Parties choose their candidates according to their rules, whether Trumpers like it or not. 
 I've voted D for President more than I have R and I think it was a sham. She was completely wiped off the stage last cycle and now she is the best they've got to replace Biden? 

Sorry, this isn't about Trumpers. This is about a failed party. 

I'd be voting D this cycle probably for everyone except her and Newsome. They could have had Tulsi, RFK, Bernie, Bloomberg, Buttigieg from last cycle that would all be eons better. They have people like Shapiro, Beshear, Cooper and others in the party that can actually formulate coherent sentences. 

But yes, let's misdirect and say this is a Trumper thing. All the DNC has done in recent years is made me likely vote for someone who I think is an abysmal human being. Hats off to 'em. 
 “Wiped off the stage.”  You mean like she did to Trump in their debate?

Too bad you hate her so much that you’ll be voting for the convicted, pro-Putin con man who is running to avoid prison.  You get to live with your choice.

The whole Democratic party wisely unified quickly behind Harris, avoiding a messy convention squabble, because as everyone knows, this election is only about one thing:  Stopping Trump.  

ANYONE but Trump.  Everything else is secondary noise. 
 I don't hate her. I hate her policies and what the party has become. They've pushed me and many like me out. 

Like your last statement, I feel the same way about the DNC and where they have hijacked and steered the party. Maybe one day common sense will return. 

Have a good one.
