    Biden ran unopposed because he’s already been crowned. There wasn’t even an “undecided” on the ballot.

    So lots of Dems voted in the Republican primary because that was the only one with a presidential choice.

    If you a Dem in Indiana or other primary states only 4 months before the primary is over, you’re one of the states that the DNC doesn’t give a fuck about its voters or their stances.

    That’s why Indiana only goes Dem for candidates like Obama they believe will help them.

    Biden ain’t that.

      Do you have a reputable source you can cite to bolster your claim? It isn’t that i don’t trust you, i don’t trust the Internet at large.

          I appreciate the reply, but a reddit post doesn’t qualify as a reputable source for anything. I’d be happy to read a news article or research paper if you have one.

            Indiana it’s public record which ballot you take.

            So someone could theoretically compare that to the party registration, but this misses all the people who are Independent but typically vote Dem.

            In any case, it’s not something I can just grab two days after the election and do myself for a social media comment.
