89. Some simple math:

Thu Mar 14, 2019, 03:53 PM

Mar 2019

Success Rate:

Sanders 1.8%
Gillibrand 7.4%
Klobuchar 9.1%
Harris 5.6%
Booker 5.0%
Warren 6.4%

Each almost 3X or more (Klobuchar 5X!)

Bills Passed/Year:

Sanders .25
Gillibrand 2.30
Klobuchar 2.75
Harris 1.50
Booker 1.00
Warren 1.17

Each 4X or more (Klobuchar 11X the annual rate!)

As for the "Amendment King", one can't get amendments passed unless someone else did the ground work of getting a bill written first and then passed.

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