Poll question: When will the Democratic nomination be effectively decided?
I'm curious when people think the Democratic nominee will emerge. "Effectively" means that, by any reasonable political standard, all other candidates should drop out at that point in time, and that the nominee is assured. (You might call this the "press test," when the press declares a winner.)

1. Long before you or I get to vote, tsipple.
IL will just be icing on the Dean cake. I said 2/4. :shrug:

2. I'm with you
I'm in PA, our votes never count for anything. I could never figure out why all states don't do this on teh same day. It unfairly makes some people's votes more important than others.

3. 2/11
Things might get a big tricky, however, if there are upsets in IA and/or NH.
