I just changed my preference back to "undecided."

Everyone I've truly liked so far has since dropped out of the race. Castro being the latest casualty.

However, I'm not really sure it matters anyway. Because on primary voting day, I'm going to vote for whoever I think has the best chance at beating Trump and pushing Texas blue. As of right now, it appears to be Biden. But time will tell.

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

By the time the voting gets to me, there will likely only be a few left.

Any allegiance in the meantime is simply a setup for disappointment.

I will decide when I know who is really an option for my vote and that won't happen until March.

However I will vote for whomever the candidate of The Democratic party is and therefore I think DU needs a category that say "The chosen candidate" for our choice.

Public funding of elections would solve this but big money, Fox News, etc are dead set against it.

Biden is not so progressive but the big deal breaker for me is his age. I am not sure why this doesn’t bother his boosters.....two terms and he would be closing in on 90. Same with Bernie. I will vote for them though, hope they Pick younger running mates

Warren is on the cusp but after two terms she would be approximately the age Joe and Bernie are now.

This race is so unpredictable, it is going to be a wild ride.....we must not blow it we need to crush this Mussolini clone. I would vote for a smart dog over Twitler.
