No, it's not like that here. The parties hold what's called a "primary election" where voters get to choose who the presidential nominee shall be.

Except in 2024. The Democrats refused to hold a primary and they told voters who the nominee would be instead of asking them.

And Kamala is extremely far away from "the top." She was a candidate in the 2020 presidential primary election and she was the weakest candidate, who received the fewest votes. There was no democratic reason for her to be up against Trump in the first place.
