truly adore said she just wanted to vote for her candidate...while I kind of understand. I would never do this. Warren was my second choice so if Biden had failed, I would have voted for Warren. Ah well to each their own...and while I understand about your candidate dropping out and all, you can;t have eight people in a primary all the way to the end...it wastes money and causes a brokered convention, and we have never won a general with a brokered convention.

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