Someone else started the petition, not her. It is a misleading headline.

I don't believe party officials are that worried. If they were, he would not be caucusing with the party. Honestly, if they weren't comfortable with the possibility of him getting the nomination, I doubt they would have let him run in our primaries in the first place.

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