   @Edelruth @Legit_Spaghetti @paul @WarnerCrocker Yeah I mean moving the date of a big event is a big ordeal and a lot of wasted money, but this is major US political party level money involved, it's not like that's a hard problem.

     @ocdtrekkie @Edelruth @Legit_Spaghetti @paul Regardless of costs, etc… the smart play would have been to pick a date WELL in advance of any possible screwing around.

     I mean obviously the Democrats are going to sit down, check the new hard dates, and move the convention.

     @Legit_Spaghetti @paul @WarnerCrocker Apparently not: "A similar situation came up before the 2020 presidential election. ... Ohio lawmakers approved changing the cutoff to 60 days — but only for that election."

     It seems like the DNC definitely should've known going into this year.

     @paul @WarnerCrocker You got that backwards. The Ohio gop changed their dates AFTER the DNC set the date for their convention.

     As usual, it's republican ratfuckery.
