I won't quibble about the veracity or accuracy of the poll only that I take them all with a grain of salt. We have a year to to GOTV and campaign while President Biden continues his outstanding performance as leader of the country.

Vice President Harris earned my primary vote. Joe Biden was my 2nd pick so it was disappointing Harris didn't win but I was a very happy loser to Biden. I like and respect her a lot and agree 100% she would and hopefully will be a great President but she simply is not more experienced than President Biden.

Joe Biden started his political career in 1970. Kamala Harris was 6 years old. Senator for over 35 years. 8 years as VP. 3 years as President. Bonus points for being really good at all of it while being dealt personal tragedies that would leave most mortals a quivering mass of grief. Hats off and applause for Vice President Harris but math, history and a calendar show clearly President Biden has vastly more government experience.
