As far as I know, she is the only Democrat challenging Joe Biden for the nomination.

    some crackpot who barely got any votes

    She got about 3% of the vote (about the same as Dean Phillips, a sitting congressman and the only other challenger to Biden).

      That’s nothing, she only got some many because there was barely anyone else running. Again, she does not share Biden’s views. No way the Democrats nominate someone who is anti-vaccine.

      Dude, she got branded as a nutjob back in 2020. That’s not going away, no matter how unfair it may be.

        If the Democrats have a better option, they have two months to find it.

        So far, every other Democrat says they’re supporting Biden, and Biden said last week that immigrant women are being raped by their sisters (which I expect to be the clip played in Republican ads before the election).

          Democratic politicians will publically back Biden without reservation, even as some scheme behind closed doors on ways to get him to just leave already. If those people are successful, they will be just as publically backing their new nominee, and act like they always have been.

          It’s just politics

          Party leadership is uninterested in better options.

      If the only two challengers only got 3% each, then I’m sorry, but there are no challengers.

      That’s because the billionaire-owned media blacked her out. After the billionaire-owned media overcame their scare with Bernie, they learned that just not ever mentioning a candidate is the best strategy to sink a candidate.

      I know about Marianne only because I watch Kyle Kulinski and The Breaking Points.

      Marianne would wipe the floor with the establishment democrats if she were allowed to speak to the voters.

      Oh, and the DNC never gave her a voter list that she legally purchased from the DNC. They took her money and gave her nothing.
