If you'd be unhappy with Booker being absent from debates, but are set as Undecided here,

please consider changing your preference to Booker for a couple/few days, as an experiment.

Just curious how far up he would move in DU's Current Candidate Rankings.

1. It Would Be Nice If More DU Members Indicated a Preference for the Primary

Hard to believe 44% of DU members don't have a preference at this point.

5. True. I'm curious how in tune the undecided voters are with the decided voters.

*But the way the DU question is worded, e.g., "If I were to vote in a presidential primary today, I would vote for" is not about who you've decided on for sure, just who you'd vote for today, like a gun-to-the-head scenario. Not exactly the same as being decided.

Jay will probably deliver great speeches during the Democratic National Convention, at least.
Monday, July 13, 2020 through Thursday, July 16, 2020

Feel like swapping to Booker till this Tuesday morning for sake of the experiment?

4. I'll have to think on that. I already committed to going with the public's primary consensus.

I did, however, contribute to every single candidate.

6. Thanks for considering it. It's only temporary, so please weigh the negative consequences.

I keep coming up with zero negatives.

I can't think of any negative consequences. Iow, they weigh nothing.
