Judge restores New York Democratic presidential primary on June 23
Toss-up contests from Arizona to Florida hold the key for President Trump and Joe Biden.
State Board of Elections spokesman John Conklin said: “No comment at this time. Our lawyers are reviewing the decision.”Biden’s campaign declined to comment. The campaign has kept its distance from the situation, not wanting to become embroiled in a new fight over nearly 300 delegates to the summer convention and saying the campaign didn’t ask for the primary to be scrapped.
Biden’s campaign did not want to be seen as stepping on Sanders’ efforts to do that in a state like New York, where the Vermont senator maintains a significant following.“Credit to Andrew Yang and all the grass-roots groups that have been carrying on the fight for democracy in New York,” said Larry Cohen, who chairs Our Revolution, an organization spun out of Sanders’ 2016 White House bid.
