Voting for the ticket isn't the same as voting for Harris.  Harris very very likely would not have been the nominee in an open and contested Democrat primary had Joe announced he wasn't running prior.  That's why so many Dems are reportedly not happy with her has the nominee right now if it stands.  That is absolutely subverting the democratic process.
