But there is no easy mechanism for this---the legislature should have been the one to make the decision, but they are not in session. The courts were the first attempt, but a judge said it was bad precedent. Then they used the Dept of Health to over-ride the matter. It is still the plan to have the primary, just later.
It's a cluster, I agree---I'm a poll worker and have been whip-sawed around all evening and now I can't sleep. I got the word that I would be working at 9 pm and that I would NOT be working at 11 pm and I would have been getting up at 5:30 am.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
