NYT Op Ed Crew rank the debate particpants

There is that paywall, but it is an interesting read.

The punch line - Bernie, Elizabeth and Mayor Pete all average out at around 7

The 4-6 crew starts with Beto at the low end, Amy K at the high end

Steyer and Tulsi bring up the rear

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

The responses are filtered through their own personal political lenses. It is clear how they felt about the candidates before the debate even started.

Given they are opinion writers, but some of the opinions here seem to be based on deep personal feelings rather than opinions founded on policy.
