decision last week to \u2063write off\u200d New Hampshire\u2063 voters, \u2062it was a strategic move to pander to his party\u2019s more \u201cdiverse\u201d\u2062 base.<\/p>\n<p>But he still set himself \u2062up for a potentially humiliating prospect: Seeing a \u2062rival win \u2062the Granite State\u2019s\u200c traditionally influential first primary\u200b in his party\u2019s\u2063 nomination contest.<\/p>\n<p>According to\u200b <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/democrats-launch-biden-nh-ballot-write-in-effort-aiming-avoid-embarrassment-president\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Fox News<\/a>, a Democratic\u200b group operating independently \u2063of\u200c the Biden re-election campaign has \u200claunched a drive to keep that from happening\u200c by staging \u200da campaign for voters to write\u200b Biden in on a presidential primary ballot\u200b that won\u2019t include the incumbent\u2019s name.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cThe fate of our democracy itself

\u200dreported last week, Biden\u200b chose not to file to have his name included \u2063in the New Hampshire primary because\u2063 the state has remained \u2064stubborn about maintaining its first-in-the-nation voting status.<\/p>\n<p>In February, after <a

state that saved Biden\u2019s flailing campaign during the 2020 nomination fight.<\/p>\n<p>Since New Hampshire\u2062 refused to \u2063go along with \u200dthe schedule, which puts its primary three days after South Carolina, Biden will not be campaigning\u200c there.<\/p>\n<p>Even <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2023\/07\/05\/magazine\/democratic-national-committee-2024.html\"

(He\u200b thinks Biden is simply too old to be\u2064 president.)<\/p>\n<p>Write-In Biden leader \u200cJim Demers told Fox News that Phillips\u2019 entry into the \u2063race wasn\u2019t a factor in the \u2064group\u2019s \u200bdecision launch \u2014 it was made before Phillips filed,\u2062 Demers said. \u2064But staving off potential rivals was clearly the whole idea.<\/p>\n<p>But that\u2019s where the potential for a backfire comes in.<\/p>\n<p>The decision \u200dby Biden, his\u2062 handlers and the Democratic\u2062 National Committee to effectively cut New Hampshire out of the nomination process was no doubt made with the \u2064knowledge that it could \u2062well mean Biden would not appear\u2063 on the state\u2019s ballot. (New Hampshire takes its status\u200b so seriously it <a href=\"https:\/\/gencourt.state.nh.us\/rsa\/html\/lxiii\/653\/653-9.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">has a\u200b state law<\/a> requiring its \u2064primary to \u200cbe\u2064 at least one week ahead of any other state\u2019s.)<\/p>\n<p>If Biden\u2019s name wasn\u2019t even on the\u2063 ballot, \u2064a \u201closs\u201d there\u2064 could \u200bbe spun as no loss at all, but at\u200d worst a non-decision. And \u200cgiven the establishment media\u2019s willingness to spin the lefty Democratic spiel, it could even be played as a moral victory, a sacrifice\u200b to the god of Diversity.<\/p>\n<p>But now\u200c that there\u2019s an actual campaign championing Biden, the danger of humiliation is\u2064 even higher, regardless of whether it\u2019s actually affiliated with Biden\u2019s organization.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s\u200c a very good chance the Write-In Biden effort\u200b will tank. Biden wasn\u2019t popular in New Hampshire in \u20642020, when <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/nh-bloodbath-biden-warren-trouble-yang-bennet-quit\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">he placed fifth<\/a> in a still-crowded field led by Vermont Sen.
