Considering one of the major candidates didn't even go through anything resembling a primary process, I am going with "not very".

Am I right, do I win?

The funny thing is they could’ve ran a lightning election, but the Democratic Party is terrified about, “what if voters don’t choose the anointed candidate?!”

Yeah, before Harris there was discussion of doing a lightning primary with just mail-in votes or at least settling at the convection instead of just anointing Kamala.
