Once opponents, Warren emerges as top Biden adviser

(snip)


A recent YouGov Blue poll conducted for Data for Progress of independent voters shows significant differences in income and confidence in Biden among voters who support Warren and Sen. Kamala Harris as the top choice for vice president. The poll was conducted among 538 independent voters in 12 battleground states including Georgia, Arizona, Florida, Michigan, North Carolina and Wisconsin.

Among independents who say they currently don’t lean toward either party, Warren is the first or second choice of 23% of those voters, with Harris the first or second choice of 21%. Warren is the first choice of 11% of these pure independents, and Harris is the also the first choice of 11%. Among all independents, the results are also statistically tied.

“Most of Warren’s support comes from voters in households that earn under $60,000, less than the median income,” said John Ray, senior political analyst of YouGov. “Most of Harris’ comes from voters with a family income of more than $70,000, above the median family income.”

“Among battleground-state persuadable voters who are unsure about voting for Biden, Warren is the clear first choice for vice president,” said Sean McElwee, co-founder and executive director of Data for Progress.

but as an Arizona voter out of the options I like Warren the best.

I also posted to show the arguments are false that she would hurt the ticket or that she isn't "electable".

She's not going to be VP.

There's not a tea leaf out there pointing to that scenario.

Warren is not gonna be tha VP.
Nor the President after Biden.
Nor the 1st woman President.

Biden's VP will never be Liz Warren.

He will pass the torch to his VP as our 2024 Democratic candidate.
It's not going to be Warren.

When all the shit was thrown out there in that primary race.....between Biden, Clinton, and Obama campaigns.

Warren may not be VP, but it won’t be for shallow reasons.

Nothing shallow about that.

The country & world of 2008/2016, to now in 2020, are a whole different set of circumstances.

(Btw the real shallowness showed itself in 2015/16.)

The future is not VP/P Warren. It is our 2024 Candidate that Biden is looking at.

And that is exactly how it should be.
