I'd marked my preference as Undecided, & basically I still am, but with Biden under attack

in what seems to me a very unfair way, I am at least temporarily listing him as my preference.

I also think he's a very strong candidate who at this point could very well be our best chance of defeating Trump and then uniting the country to start undoing the damage Trump and his deplorables have done.

Joe Biden may not be my final choice in the primaries. But he's a great man who deserves our respect, and fair treatment by Democrats.

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

gaslighitng attack.

“I have thoroughly reviewed photographic documentation from the event, and spoken to nearly every principle in attendance, as well as staff associated with the event. To the best of our recollection, at no time were Lucy Flores and Vice President Biden alone,” Henry Munoz, co-founder of Latino Victory Project, said in a statement.

“Lucy is my good friend and a good friend to Latino Victory, which has strongly supported her political career. I also firmly believe that women need to be supported and heard and that there is a reckoning in our culture that is long overdue. Vice President Biden is also my close friend, to the degree that he presided over my own marriage. These are both individuals that I love and respect,” he said.

“Yet at no time were these two leaders alone together and I, and the organization I cofounded and those in attendance, do not believe that circumstances support allegations that such an event took place,” he added.
