I’m with you. But our primary system fucking sucks and it disenfranchises people based on the staggered timings. I was so motivated for Warren and a ton of people I know were. But Biden had won by the time most people got a chance to vote, including me.

The timing thing I guess is interesting for giving people time to adjust but I would prefer a system where it was one day and one person one vote.

Every state I've lived in has had a late primary, and only once did I actually get to vote in it when it could have made a difference.
