    Second place to Harris??? Holy fuck we deserve our fate.

    Edit: upon reading the article (I know…) AOC has the best net favorability. So a little more hopium there.

      This poll is pretty pointless, as far as actually getting to know who people specifically want. The top runner this far out is pretty much always the last person to have run, because the political climate hadn’t changed that much and nobody has campaigned for the next nomination yet.

      The important takeaway is that AOC, and presumably progressivism more generally, is getting more popular.

      The majority of the voting population answers this question based on name recognition alone. You’re way more up to speed on the options than the average American voter. We need to put energy into getting people like AOC in front of as many disengaged and unaware people as possible. NOT complain and whine that everything isn’t handed to us on a platter.

      She’s in second place and we have 3 years to move her into first, that sounds worth a shot to me. But go ahead and throw your hands up in the air, tuck your tail, and say there’s nothing we can do.

      We are closer than we’ve ever been in my lifetime.

        Yeah I read the article, that headline is almost misleading in its support for Harris if anything. AOC has the best net

        I shouldn’t have to educate grown adults on shit this important they ought to desire to learn on their own. They should know who the hell AOC is JFC. So I’m still disgusted, just significantly less so. And like, I’ll inevitably try to promote AOC, but I don’t owe this country shit. I want to leave, I only can’t thus far due to money/resources.
