My son that is a freshman in college said his friends

initially wanted Yang. However, today they said they voted for Warren. He is very surprised that they did not say Bernie. He said two other ladies at the voting place said they voted for Warren too. My son That is a senior in college is home for spring break. He said his friends switched to Bernie after Yang dropped out. Lots of older people out when I voted. Hopefully, Biden wins our area.

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

And I respect that. However, even if they prefer Bernie, they vote at a fraction of the percentage as the rest of the population.

Was a Beto all the way... until he dropped out.
Flirted with Yang, but landed on Pete...until he dropped out
Now he is also with Biden.

some family over for dinner the other day. 2 Warren supporters, 1 Biden and 2 Pete. Guess what we did? We laughed, joked, complimented each others candidates. All agreed to vote blue. We had a good time. The Pete supporters moved into Biden's camp.

back Biden now. Loved Beto last night.

The young in my office are actively opposing Sanders. Wants Warren. Trying to adjust to Biden.
