I voted for Elizabeth Warren in Florida

I believe she would be the best choice for President, hands down. I know she won't win, mainly because this country is still sexist AF, as HRC well knows. Harris was my first pick, and I would be REALLY happy with Klobuchar.

I don't care for Biden, never have, and probably never will. I haven't since I was home sick from work and watched Anita Hill's testimony on TV. I am pretty sure he will get the nomination. But guess what?

If he gets the nom, I am riding shotgun for Biden all the way to the voting booth in November. No hesitation. No regrets.

And, hopefully he will choose Klobuchar or Warren as his VP.

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

And she was my first choice until last weekend - because I'm in Oregon and we don't vote until May. By then, things may be already decided.

If Biden is close to or above Sanders in delegates after today, I think it will be.

Warren has drive, knowledge and the ability to work with others.

That said, I'd sleep easy at night with Joe in the White House, too.

Primarily because Joe's chances against tRumpy The Clown are the worst of any other top-tier Democratic candidate... Bernie being the best. Anyway, good luck to Elizabeth today... may the best candidate win!!


Bernie/Elizabeth or Elizabeth/Bernie 2020!!
Either way, they're stronger together & can't be bought!!
Jump on the Bernie Bandwagon & join The Revolution!!

It's the second time I get to vote for her. I happened to be living in Boston back in 2012 so I voted for her in the senate. I still hold out hope that she wins.

As far as I am concerned, as long as you didn't vote for Bernie, it is fine by me.

If a majority of progressives were not so gungho for Bernie, they would have seen that she was their best hope. She has the ability and skills to deliver a lot of what Bernie talks about but will not be able to deliver in a million years due to quirks of his personality.

Pete, Amy and possibly Steyer would have hung around for ST. Warren is not viewed as a liability for down ticket races-the major reason for the moderate field consolidating IMO. This in turn would have meant that she was have gotten a big chunk of the delegates in CA and the other states Sanders is poised to win and would have come to the convention with a plurality at the very least.
