The New York State Democratic Party cancelled its presidential primary on the grounds that all the candidates except Biden have withdrawn. The election will be held anyway, since it includes other offices as well.

The Sanders campaign objected to this move, since it could reduce the turnout of progressives for other candidates.

I hope progressives understand the importance of replacing right-wing Democrats, and vote as if their lives depend on it -- since they will.

Democrats are coming to understand the danger of Republican voter suppression. However, anything that artificially discourages progressive voters from voting will have a similar effect.
