my understanding is that they're stretching to find something unethical or contrary to democratic values or contrary to how a fair primary should be run or something.

but the democratic party is not a governmental institution, it's a 501(c) organization, and it can make whatever contracts and deals it wants. legally speaking, i do think they need to hold elections at all, they can just choose their nominee by drawing straws or arm-wrestling of a dance-off. legally speaking, it can be fair or not.

i'm not taking a view in this thread on the ethical question, there are plenty of other threads for that.

i'm just wondering what they think there is to prosecute, because i haven't heard of anything that comes close to anything criminal.
