Phillips seeks to lower expectations in New Hampshire

Phillips told NewsNation anchor Chris Cuomo in an interview on Monday he expects he can get above 25 percent of the vote in the first-in-the-nation primary, but getting to the 20s would be “literally unexpected and quite extraordinary.”

Prediction: Dean Phillips wins the NH Democratic Primary... [View all] brooklynite Jan 2024 OP

I doubt that. Voltaire2 Jan 2024 #1

Because.....? brooklynite Jan 2024 #4

Because we aren't stupid voters. Voltaire2 Jan 2024 #20

A point I raised with DNC Chair Jaime Harrison... brooklynite Jan 2024 #7

Exactly nt oldsoftie Jan 2024 #36

Was this Jaime's response? W_HAMILTON Jan 2024 #40

What did I misunderstand? brooklynite Jan 2024 #43

They refused the alternative date that was offered to them because they didn't want to take a backseat to South Carolina W_HAMILTON Jan 2024 #46

So your view is "screw the Democratic voters if the Republican Government refuses to change the date"? brooklynite Jan 2024 #47

No, my view -- which is also fact -- is that they can run a separate nominating process on their own... W_HAMILTON Jan 2024 #48

My point is that the DNC and the State Party HAVEN'T announced what that alternative process is. brooklynite Jan 2024 #50

Once again, why would they? The state party refused to change their date -- period. W_HAMILTON Jan 2024 #56

So you're saying NH Democrats won';t have an opportunity to pick delegates? brooklynite Jan 2024 #60

"Iowa has announced an alternative date and voting process." W_HAMILTON Jan 2024 #62

No, Iowa didn't... brooklynite Jan 2024 #65

State law requires a caucus Bettie Jan 2024 #69

NH Democrats aren't constrained; they just need to develop a Caucus process. brooklynite Jan 2024 #70

I was quoting your own words, brooklynite. W_HAMILTON Jan 2024 #71

You're blaming the Democratic Party for the actions of the Republican State Government. brooklynite Jan 2024 #73

No, I'm blaming the state party for the actions of the state party. W_HAMILTON Jan 2024 #111

According to Green Papers... LiberalFighter Jan 2024 #63

If President Biden specifically didn't want to participate in NH primary, why go against his wishes by writing him in? MichMan Jan 2024 #12

omg.. No Worries it's okay if Dems Write him in.. Okay? Cha Jan 2024 #78

Because they didn't want to have the dubious and shameful distinction... W_HAMILTON Jan 2024 #121

Chomping at the bit are you? iemanja Jan 2024 #84

No... Demsrule86 Jan 2024 #139

the point is to stop letting a few white people pick the nominee iemanja Jan 2024 #83

President Biden will be competitive in NH in November. President Biden will not be competitive in SC. brooklynite Jan 2024 #85
