I was not turning out for Joe. Even if its Harris im voting now. Id prefer it not be Harris, but a much younger president, starting a first term of hopefully 2, we’re definitely taking back some Court seats.
I wanted to see AOC but she isn’t old enough. Lol
Edit: please read the rest of this comment thread to get all facts and not blindly agree or disagree.
As pointed out by @lemonmelon@lemmy.world, she technically could run once she turned 35 on Oct 13, since there is no cutoff for running for president of the US before the election.
Thanks @lemonmelon@lemmy.world !
Can we put that misinformation to bed, please? Her birthday is before the election, which by definition is before inauguration day. Unless you think she’s going to suddenly Benjamin Button, she meets the qualification.
Unfortunately, this is spreading misinformation, sorry guys.

To even run for president, not just be president, you are required to be 35.
Edit: to add the missing information above that I forgot to add… If she chose to, since there is no cutoff date for putting in your Candidancy, when she turns 35 on Oct 13, she could at that very moment run for president. But she cannot run until then.
To be put on the ballot to BE elected you need to be 35. What are you talking about misinformation?
Edit: you can’t declare Candidancy without being 35. Stop spreading misinformation.
Yep, I’ll pokemon go to the polls now. Harris would not be my first pick, but it would be dumb for me to demand that biden step down and still not vote when my demand is met.
Democrats have listened to their voters and they deserve to be rewarded for that.
It’s not like there’s another choice at this time. She’s there and likely has the donor money. The campaign team is assembled and working. It’s really the only option at this point. It’s either Joe or Harris. I admire you for recognizing that this is a win, and we need to take it and move forward.
