You may possibly not know that Joe Biden, who was not on the ballot, received the Democratic nomination in New Hampshire previous night. Via Politico:
A produce-in marketing campaign for President Joe Biden won the New Hampshire Democratic most important Tuesday, soon after the point out was stripped of its delegates by the Democratic Countrywide Committee.
Voters who wrote in Biden’s identify beat out Rep. Dean Phillips (D-Minn.) and self-support author Marianne Williamson, according to three information networks, with early counts of unprocessed publish-in ballots outnumbering votes for Phillips by a a lot more-than-3-to-one margin.
Biden bypassed the New Hampshire major, right after the DNC reshuffled the presidential nominating calendar and elevated South Carolina to the initially-place location. Biden, who backed the new lineup, did not appear on the ballot in New Hampshire, nor did he marketing campaign in the point out.
The New Hampshire results indicate that Biden is barreling toward a rematch with previous President Donald Trump in the typical election.
On the lookout back to 2020, I was essentially scoffing underneath my breath as I wrote up the Joe Biden campaign spin all around his NH reduction. I failed to see any way he could come back.
And now he just received NH large as a publish-in functioning for his re-election.https://t.co/30OsGkuwBi

Dean Phillips invested nearly $3 million to campaign in a point out wherever Joe Biden just isn’t on the ballot, and he however finished up getting rid of to him by somewhere in between forty-fifty points (publish in processing will take some time and is a little bit wonky). Seeking at 70-25, give or consider a couple of details.

Talked to @juliaajohnson_ about how Biden deserves props for his New Hampshire gain, “a president so well known that he gained a unusual publish-in campaign irrespective of not even remaining on the ballot or competing in the point out!”
(Picture headlines if Trump did the exact same.)
