It may tilt the votes of undecided moderates to Gillespie and it will slightly hurt northam in Charlottesville with Bernie supporters not much else.

it successfully covered up a literal "47%" moment from Ed Gillespie, so that's good.

Potential for decreased base turnout for the Democrats.

The real travesty is how terrible USSC rulings have allowed these schemes to raise so much money. Roberts (or maybe one of the others) specifically said in response to allegations that this very thing would happen that those were "fantasies" or "wild hypothetical." Just another situation where the Roberts conservative majority made the wrong call and ended up with a pie on their face, and yet you'll probably never hear them acknowledge that.

Otherwise, I still contend that the word "rigging" is a really bad term to use for whatever people think went on in the 2016 primary. It implies votes were changed en masse, or ballot stuffing, or whatever. Unfortunately there are a lot of lefties/Bernie supporters out there who really have no idea what did or didn't happen in 2016 (and no desire to read up on it to possibly challenge their preconceived notions), and mostly just read headlines.

Any Democrat who doesn't turn out because of something that happened over a year ago(with different candidates) is an idiot.

It will have zero effect.

It is funny how outsiders are viewing this race compared to those of us who actually live here.

The race is within 1.2 points on RCP. That’s a close race.

And?

Internal polling from both camps have showed no significant movement the last several weeks. The truth is Northam has had a small, but stable lead all through out the campaign.
