How the uncommitted movement rocked Biden over Gaza

I voted uncommitted in the primary in Washington this year.

The uncommitted movement is 100% what primaries are for. It gives a clear message in actual voting data to the democrats and bidens campaign and I do think they know that they've got some ground to cover, whether they manage to remains to be seen. To be honest I was gonna vote in my primary but I'm in a red state and there's no uncommitted on the ballot so I don't really see a point when all of my other candidates for other positions are also already decided. Worst of all, all of my local positions are solely Republicans and it sucks that I don't feel like I can vote for anyone locally who could actually represent me. Anyway, I'm really glad there have been so many uncommitted voters, it's how primaries should work when there's only one real candidate.

"rocked"? Really?

Last time I checked, the U.S. is still sending more military aid than ever to assist in the genocide of the same vulnerable, impoverished, starving people. Nothing has changed.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

People in Michigan, and across the country, had been protesting for months over the Gaza war and the US government’s role in it, marching in the streets, showing up at the president’s public events, and pressuring their elected officials to support a ceasefire.

That year, then candidate Barack Obama was not on the ballot in Michigan because the state’s primary date violated party rules, so his supporters voted “uncommitted” to reject Hillary Clinton’s campaign there.

A memo written in late January by Waleed Shahid, a Democratic strategist, outlined the idea: use uncommitted in the Michigan presidential primary to “demonstrate a large rejection of President Biden’s backing and financing of the Israeli government’s war in Gaza”.

The next stop was Minnesota, a state with a progressive tradition, a sizable Somali population, and seasoned organizers who learned how to get messages out fast during the 2020 racial uprisings over the murder of George Floyd by a Minneapolis cop.

Potential volunteers were urged to sign up for phone and text banks, donate whatever time and money they could spare and join a WhatsApp group that shares actions people can take.

Organizers from Michigan and Minnesota shared what worked for them, followed by campaign leaders in Washington and Wisconsin, who detailed what they hoped to see in their states once voters had a chance to cast ballots for uncommitted options.

Talking about voting uncommitted now, makes you a Republican. Hope you enjoy MAGA country. According to your leader, deportations start day one.
