Will the Dems have an open convention or will Kamala be annointed Joe's successor by acclaimation?

I'd vote for an open convention.

Harris will have the necessary delegates way before the convention.

Even if there is a so-called open convention it will all be decided before. As competitive as that tournament in Rio where Pat Patterson was crowned first inter continental champion back in the early 80s.

She's already on the tix, is VP and has the delegates
The whole convention will openly support her

By definition the convention is ‘open’. Other potential candidates need a certain number of signatures to be considered. Marianne Williamson is still ‘running’. Manchin (idiotically) said he may run. There is NO WAY any serious Democrat tries to go against Harris now. It would be political suicide.

It’s Harris/ (fill in name here). Versus Trump/Vance.
