I know it's WAY too soon - but let's play a game.

It’s now February 2020.
Tell me who you think finishes 1, 2, 3 in the first four caucuses/primaries.

Here’s my guesses:
Iowa
Bernie
Biden
Buttigieg

NH
Biden
Bernie
Warren

SC
Harris
Biden
Booker

Nev
Bernie
Harris
Biden


Your turn. 🤝👁🤘🏾

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

South Carolina and Nevada

I think he could win NH as well, but it depends on how his positions on guns compares to the other candidates.

Iowa I see him top 3 but don't know enough about the issues there to guess further. I know NH extremely well and he has a good chance there.

I will be surprised if he doesn't get very strong and wide support from African American voters. He is extremely strong on race issues, more so than any candidate I have ever heard.

Almost everyone there hunts, so guns matter, even with Democrats. It won't be the most important thing but it is important. Universal background checks won't have any kind of impact. Any bans could have an impact but Beto has a more balanced approach to that as well.

and like a good marathon runner, he is conserving his energy for the final few miles when the tired and weary will be huffing and puffing as he zooms past.
