Congratulations to our presumptive Democratic nominee, Joe Biden!
Sorry, Joe Biden: Aubrey Plaza is Delaware's most famous person
Now here's a REAL poll.
Ah, Delaware: Land of relative smallness, the former DuPont Chemicals (now DowDuPont, Inc.), and a lot of big claims about being the first state to join the United States. (Its even right there in theirnickname, the braggy bastards.) Despite its general teensiness, though, Delaware has the same claim to the eventually famous as any other American state, including folks like former Vice President Joe Biden, actress Elisabeth Shue, and Henry Heimlich, he of the eponymous life-saving maneuver. None of those people managed to top Delaware Onlines unofficial poll of the states most famous person, though, something that actual winner Aubrey Plaza is unlikely to let any of them forget.
The Parks And Recs and Legion star came out well ahead of her next-nearest competitor, long-dead jazz musician Clifford Brown. (Take that, Easy Living.) Plaza responded to the honor in an extremely Aubrey Plaza way, taunting former 36-year-senator Bidenwho somehow only came in sixthvia Twitter, and telling Delaware Online, Im so honored and incredibly surprised. But deep down, I feel like Ive accomplished nothing. I feel empty inside.

But c'mon, Joe clearly has the highest Q rating of anyone on that list. It's not close.

But then, I'm out of the celebrity loop. I look at the magazines in the grocery store checkout line and wonder, who the hell is that?

I didn't know she was from Delaware. Biden is still my favorite person from Delaware though.
