Alternative Democratic presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has accused the Democratic Party of “rigging” the primary system to ensure Joe Biden stands a better chance by refusing to hold debates and changing the first primary vote to South Carolina, where Biden is popular, rather than New Hampshire.
Speaking to Breitbart, RFK Jr. noted “The DNC, at this point, has taken the official position that there will be no debate, and I think that’s unfortunate… I think what the DNC did to New Hampshire is also unfortunate.”
“President Biden didn’t do well there [New Hampshire]; he came in fifth. So they took New Hampshire, and they kicked it out of first place. And now they’re gonna say — they’re saying that they’re going to completely remove the delegates from New Hampshire, and that, we should be at this point in history,” RFK Jr. continued.
He added that New Hampshire has always been the first state to vote in primaries because it is a “gold standard” of election integrity and “an exemplar for American democracy.”
“It’s very cheap to campaign in. And it has the largest independent block in the country. And people [don’t] make their minds up until they see the candidates again and again and again, and they shake the candidate’s hands five times before deciding who to vote for,” Kennedy Jr. continued.
“They vet these candidates for the whole country, they vet them like you would get vetted if you were running for a city council seat,” he counted, adding “You have to go in, and handshake people and nail salons and diners, and you get grilled. These candidates get grilled by an 80-year-old woman who reads The Economist and reads the Financial Times every day.”
“New Hampshire is the one place where you got to do retail politics, you cannot escape,” he further asserted.
“When you have so many Americans who are concerned about election integrity, we should be doing everything we can in our party to show that, you know, this is not rigged, rigged system. That it is actually democracy… and they’re [the DNC] doing kind of the opposite,” Kennedy Jr. added.
“There’s too many Americans who already think that the whole system is rigged against them. And this is confirmation of that. And I think that’s troubling,” he further emphasised.
