I really did not expect

the national polling -- or, for that matter, the preferences chosen in this forum -- to reflect a Bernie surge and a Warren fade so quickly. TBH I am surprised they reflect that at all.

Perhaps things will even out; I just completed the most recent CBS/YouGov poll that might get released this weekend or Monday. (For those of you who complain about never being polled, here you go. I get polled for president and state races almost every week.)

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