The 2020 Presidential Election Primary Thread

[Pelado]

Haha. I promise you that will never happen. I will either vote D or throw away my vote on some 3rd party candidate.

As if Russia "meddling" wasn't messy enough in 2016.

Sanders told Russia is trying to help his campaign

And what they are doing, by the way, the ugly thing that they are doing, and I've seen some of their tweets and stuff, is they try to divide us up. That's what they did in 2016 and that is the ugliest thing they are doing -- is they are trying to cause chaos, they are trying to cause hatred in America. It's an ugly business and all of us have got to say, sorry, you're not going to do this in this election and again, as President of the United States, Mr. Putin, you will not interfere in our elections.

What exactly is being proposed here? You've seen the tweets and "stuff", are you going to stop them from tweeting?

Write in Mitt!!!

Mitt would be great and I would vote for him if he could win, but I’m voting for the democrat because they are not an asset for an adversarial government.

[LVAllen]

Write in Mitt!!!

Ann Romney!

[BigFatMeanie]

Candidates I will never cast a vote for under any circumstances:

Trump
Warren
Sanders

Candidates I would likely vote for if they win the Dem nomination:

Bloomberg

Candidates I would give some consideration to voting for if they win the Dem nomination (in no particular order):

Buttigieg
Klobuchar
Biden

All other Dem candidates still in the race have zero shot of getting the nomination so it's not worth considering them.

Heh. 8 months in advance of the election and already you and many others in this thread *cough* SeattleUte creekster JL mbn *cough* are pre-justifying their vote for Trump, because "Bernie is that bad" or some other such bullshit.

Just sack up and own it. You were going to vote for Trump's re-election all along.

Bernie/Tulsi 2020!

My vote doesn't matter because the golden state of california. But I will not vote for Bernie. Nor will I vote for Trump. I will sit it out or go third party or write in or something.

Don't give me that bullshit. I have been saying this long before now. I didn't vote for Trump in 2016 and will not vote for him in 2020, unless Warren or Sanders are on top of the dem's ticket. I have been saying this all along...I can find posts on hear dating to at least last August saying as much.

So are the same people who blame liberals for Trump getting elected going to blame Republicans if Bernie gets elected? I’m increasingly convinced that whomever the democrat is, they will get more votes and should have a very good shot, but Trump will pull and all dirty trick he can to win. That’ll be tough to beat. He has nothing to constrain him, and foreign interference has been anything but dissuaded.

I just figure that between the Russian bots working for the GOP and all of the dead and undocumented people voting for the Dems - it should be a pretty even fight, no?

A candidate is literally* buying the nomination for one of the major political parties, but... what about Russia?

Look at that jump once Bernie surged in the polls. This is a chart of Trump reelection probability in the betting markets.

Me too. I will vote for any of the candidates you listed. I will vote for Trump if it is Sanders or Warren who win the nomination.
