1. looks good for Harris and Beto

I keep thinking it will come down to those 2 if they both run.

[applegrove]

2. Those are my three favourites too.

[JI7]

3. I meant to say those 2

[applegrove]

4. I assumed you meant the top three. To me Biden is old, he is gaffe prone. But

he's such a dam fine person and a wicked debater. So I like him too.

[JI7]

5. im fine with Biden but I just mean as the elections play out

I can see it coming down to Harris and orourke . and the winner picks the other one to be vp.

[applegrove]

6. Oh that Harris/O'Rourke or O'Rourke/Harris ticket would be amazing.

[brush]

14. He is good on the debate stage. I remember how he demolished lyin' Ryan in 2012...

and actually showed O how it's done.

His time has passed though. Harris/Beto, two young, attractive Dems would be hard to beat.

[applegrove]

15. Nimble and good fighters too. All three of them.

7. And, Women/POC just happen to be

our most Enduring, Strongest Democratic Base.

9. Yes they are.

[applegrove]

17. It was A national survey of women of color political organizers, activists, donors, and party leader

Sorry. I skimmed it.

19. That's ok.. I got this from the link..

“Women of color, as a voting bloc, are the backbone of the Democratic Party and we’re really leading the way with these issues, and we’ve shown that we can get behind candidates of different genders and different races and really affect an election,” Allison said. “But now we’re demanding way more from the candidates. They need to speak directly to us, and anything short just isn’t going to cut it.”

The survey from She the People questioned 264 women of color across the country. Of the people surveyed, 50% of the women identified as black, 40% as Latinx, 16% as Asian, and 5% as Native American. The survey was conducted from Nov. 29, 2018, through Dec. 13, 2018.

[applegrove]

20. Yes. They are a very important block.

[Jeffersons Ghost]

8. I usually like your OPs; but what does "?s20" mean?

You might also consider a copy and paste to the link. HERE IS THE ACTUAL COPY AT THE LINK:

Survey asked black women to say who's among their top three candidates: Harris: 71.1% Beto: 38.3% Biden: 25% Booker: 24.2% Warren: 22.3% Abrams: 15.2% Bernie: 12.1% Bernie's never going to be the nominee unless he turns these numbers around

10. I just do the copy tweet option on Twitter. Then paste. Don't know why that appears

there. Annoying isn't it.

(Later)I can erase after the fact. Thanks.

11. This is not a poll of African American women

[applegrove]

12. Now it is clearer.

[violetpastille]

13. I see that it is a survey of Political Women of Color

A national survey of women of color political organizers, activists, donors, and party leaders shows Sen. Kamala Harris as an overwhelming early favorite of the group ahead of the 2020 presidential election.

The survey from She the People questioned 264 women of color across the country. Of the people surveyed, 50% of the women identified as black, 40% as Latinx, 16% as Asian, and 5% as Native American. The survey was conducted from Nov. 29, 2018, through Dec. 13, 2018.

If it were just African American Women I don't think Bernie would get anything.

[applegrove]

16. Okay. I missed that. Will change.

18. Harris and Beto are my favorite candidates

I think Harris would energize dem base in general election even more than Obama did in 2008. Unlike Obama she is extremely open and bold when she talks and with surgical precision of a former prosecutor. Plus she has all the charisma of Obama. IMO, Biden won’t turn out the dem vote the way Harris will. Like Beto she comes across as extremely honest and transparent. She is also a co-sponsor of medicare for all bill. We all know any dem nominee who does not support that has zero chance of winning in dem primary. Haven’t heard Biden supporting it. Healthcare will be the biggest issue in dem primaries. Love Biden but I continue to think that his time was running in 2016 when he would easily win the nomination but the country wants fresh blood now and more importantly, someone who will dominate media spotlight (Harris and Beto will eclipse all trump coverage, Biden won’t get much). California democrats are very knowledgeable and effective - look at Pelosi, Shiff, Harris, Feinstein, Boxer (former), Jerry Brown, Gavin Newsom, etc. Succesfully running the biggest state and one of the biggest and most succesfull economies is no slouch, can’t compete with that.

21. Perhaps so, but this poll is no basis for saying that...

It's way to early for any polling results to be seen as a substantial indicator of what will happen.
