Interesting results

Two days ago I posted a simple question on this board to supporters of Biden, Warren, Sanders and Buttigieg (the top 4) as well as Undecideds: "Will you enthusiastically support the Democratic party nominee regardless of who it is?"

Counting only direct responses to my OPs by the supporters of those candidates who answered Yes, the results are as follows:

Biden: 21
Undecided: 9
Warren: 7
Sanders: 4
Buttigieg: 3

Everyone is free to draw their own conclusions from these results.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
