? For Harris Supporters

[Funtatlaguy]

If she doesn’t win, who do you think that she would want to be the Dem nominee?

[mcar]

1. No clue

Why do you ask?

[Andy823]

2. Good question

I just stared a thread asking about Biden, after I saw this one, and already I am being bashed by the usual bashers, but so far no answer to the question.

3. I don't know..

I think Harris will support whomever the Democratic Nominee is.

Who do you think Warren would support, if she doesn’t win?

[Andy823]

4. Exactly!

That should be the correct answer.

[Funtatlaguy]

7. I think Warren would support Harris first.

[SunsetDreams2]

9. I think Warren will support

The Democratic Nominee

[Andy823]

15. I think they would support each other

If one did drop out they would support the other. They really get along well with each other, and both of them can beat trump.

20. So do I. I see a genuine respect there.

But, IMO, it’s still too early to contemplate openly.

[blm]

5. I don't think it is right to even ask that before the first primary vote.

I’m sure you meant no malice, but, I hope you will reconsider posting this type of question for candidates.

[Funtatlaguy]

8. Lighten up, I didn't ask anything inappropriate.

[ismnotwasm]

6. Probably Barack Obama.

Barring that as the impossibility it is, Julian Castro who is truly one of the best candidates who got lost in the crowd.

Oh, wait, that’s my preference. I have no fucking idea.

11. If the mods want to delete it, they will.

It was just a hypothetical question. No malice intended. She is my second choice.

[highplainsdem]

12. If you were merely curious, why didn't you ask who Warren supporters will turn to if she drops out?

Given her support here, that would have gotten you more responses.

[Funtatlaguy]

13. Because I'm not curious about that.

I think Warren will survive Super Tuesday as will Biden and Sanders.
I love Harris but I think she drops out after SCarolina.

[highplainsdem]

14. LOL!

[Funtatlaguy]

16. Not sure what's funny. I'd bet on it.

She’s hoping to finish at least second in two of the first four or pull a first place upset in SCarolina.
When she doesn’t, the money dries up and she won’t want to be embarrassed on Super Tuesday especially in California.
I think she will then endorse Warren. At least I hope that she does.
This is all just speculation, of course.
Which is THE POINT of message boards. It’s not divisive. It’s just political discussion.

[Andy823]

17. That's easy

If warren dropped out her supporters would go to Harris, and if Harris dropped out her supporters would go to Warren.

18. Agree with you.

I'm all in for Harris and would love a Harris/Warren ticket but would be just as happy with a Warren/Harris ticket (although I really, really want to see Trump facing a debate with Harris).

Regardless, of course I'll be voting blue.

[highplainsdem]

19. Roughly a quarter would, according to Morning Consult. They've been polling on this

regularly.

Check the Second Choices: Where Voters Could Migrate section.

You'll have to hover over or click the cards to see more than the first choice, but you'll want to see all three topc choices.

Warren supporters would go to: Harris 23%, Sanders 20%, Biden 18%.

Harris supporters would go to: Warren 28%, Biden 22%, Sanders 13%.

Because Biden is the 2nd choice for so many Harris supporters, and the most popular second choice for Sanders supporters. even if Sanders and Harris dropped out, Biden would gain as many supporters as Warren would, if not more, so it wouldn't help her overtake him.

That's the current polling, anyway.

I've seen some poll results that will mention only the one most popular second choice for a candidate's supporters, but that's misleading, especially if other candidates are very close in terms of the support they'd likely get.
