Unsceintific and Useless poll

So, my son is a senior in HS and I had 11 teen boys over last night. All are 18 or will be 18 before Nov 20. I asked them who they are voting for...I live in a rural town about 40 miles from Nashville. I support Biden reluctantly... So..... 8 Bernie, 2 Pete and 1 thought Beto was still in the race. Now, to be fair, these guys are not particularly engaged or active in politics. They had never heard of any of the candidates except Bernie, Beto, Biden and Pete.

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

My son is also a senior in high school. He will be turning 18 about two weeks before the November election. In Maine, you can pre-register to vote at 17, but my son hasn't done that just yet. Here you can vote in the primaries at 17 as long as you're turning 18 in time for the November general election.

11 young males that at least want to participate in the Dem primary. Hopefully, they don't turn to Trump in the general election.
