the poll to solicit points and counter-points. I'm liking Inslee a lot at this stage. He's got both legislative and executive experience, and he understands critical issues. Both Inslee and Harris would certainly carry the left-coast, but literally any Democratic candidate in the general will carry our region in my opinion. I included Sherrod because he's carried among the DU preference list, with > 1% preference at this time. I look at Harris as sort of a rock-star personality that might turn off significant parts of the electorate in some regions. Don't think Inslee has that drawback. He's more experienced than Harris, although as CA AG she has administrative background as well. I've said that the most important ability to me is "electability". Joe has electability covered, in spades. I am anxious to have a woman on the ticket, favoring Warren, Harris and Klobuchar among the current choices (in no particular order).

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