your side cancelled state primaries to not piss off their paper king, don't even speak about democracy, a topic you know nothing of.
I am not a Republican so don't be so sure about "my side." It is a party matter. If a party does not want to register or put up a candidate on a state ballot it is up to them. The dems have done it a few times over the years in some states. I don't care. It is up to them too. Democracy requires that the electoral process be open to parties that want to put a candidate in a jurisdiction. I dont think it requires that they must put one up if they don't. Anyway, focus on your shit party not being able to find a candidate intead of becoming an expert on what Republicans are doing wrong in your view. Continually focusing on what the republicans are doing is what lost you 2016 and will give you another big loss in 2020.
