started out as the clear front runner.

It's trendy to say that Sanders will get fully vetted this time around. Biden will get the same scrutiny after he declares, and the current polling from a year ahead of the primaries may or may not hold up. We'll see if Warren, Kloubuchar, or Harris can succeed in a national race and a big field. I actually think the biggest factor in whether a female candidate wins is female voters - will any of the current candidates get major support from women? If they do, the math changes.

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