Black Lives Matter says Dems are 'party of hypocrites' for 'installing' Harris sans 'public voting process'
Black Lives Matter is resisting the installation of Vice President Kamala Harris and calling on the DNC "to create a process that allows for public participation in the nomination process."

Black Lives Matter criticized “installing” Vice President Kamala Harris as the Democratic nominee after President Biden dropped out of the race on Sunday, claiming it would make them the party of “hypocrites.”
The liberal group that came to prominence following the death of George Floyd in 2020, advocated for an open procedure “that allows for public participation in the nomination process, not just a nomination by party delegates."
Harris swiftly received enough delegates to become the presumptive nominee for the party after the president dropped his bid for the White House on Sunday, releasing the delegates he earned in the primary.
"We do not live in a dictatorship. Delegates are not oligarchs. Installing Kamala Harris as the Democratic nominee and an unknown vice president without any public voting process would make the modern Democratic Party a party of hypocrites," the group said in a statement.
"Black Lives Matter demands that the [DNC] immediately host an informal, virtual snap primary across the country prior to the DNC convention in August."
"We call for the Rules Committee to create a process that allows for public participation in the nomination process, not just a nomination by party delegates. The current political landscape is unprecedented, with President Biden stepping aside in a manner never seen before. This moment calls for decisive action to protect the integrity of our democracy and the voices of Black voters," it said.
