25. There is no nominee until the convention.
That rule can be enforced AFTER the convention. Meanwhile, it's still primary season, and warning Democratic voters about the consequences of their votes is part of that. If it is valid to allow people to run around chanting "A vote for ________ is a vote for the republican," even though that statement is patently false,

then it's certainly more valid to say "Think about your choices in the voting booth, because if you choose to nominate __________, you choose to lose my vote."
