Memo Lays Out Terms for a ‘Blitz Primary’


“The two Democrats who popularized the idea of a ‘blitz primary’ to replace Joe Biden are circulating a detailed proposal offering possible answers to three key questions: Who chooses the candidates to replace Joe Biden? How can they campaign? And how will the Democratic nominee be chosen?,” Semafor reports.

“The probability of a new, wide open primary still seems remote: President Joe Biden is currently rebuffing pleas from party leaders and members alike that he end the candidacy. If he does step aside, many Democrats see the swift installation of Vice President Kamala Harris atop the ticket as the best alternative.”

“But others fear the impression a closed process will leave on voters: it would ‘set her and the Party up to fail,’ the new six-page memo, from Georgetown law professor Rosa Brooks and venture capitalist Ted Dintersmith, warns.”
