The state party could have decided that any process that didn’t allow voters to get a say would be fatally compromised. It did not.

So of the 3 top dem candidates it'll be the zionist centrist (Shenna Bellows) they pick via convention, since she cant win with Dem voters. They must be terrified that progressive Troy Jackson would win on the Dem side, and this is the DNC's way they eliminate him. Jackson was leading in polling of Dem candidates after Platner dropped out.
