Democratic March Madness - East Semifinal 1 - O'Rourke/Gabbard

Pick one:

Emulating what I believe at least 90% of voters do on election day, I’m voting for the name I’ve heard before, and I know almost nothing else about him (I’m not even 100% certain it’s a “him”).

Everyone stop bitching about the seedings. No one’s forcing you to vote.

Let it be a fun distraction during the doldrums. We could do one every quarter or so until things get serious in January.

If you set it up so the final two are a top contender against a neverwas, the whole thing loses its appeal. Needs to be redone, IMO.

What did I just say?

Warning issued. And you’re directed to stay out of these threads.

Beto easily. I despise Gabbard.

OK, this is an easy one. I don’t think Beto is ready yet, but on the other hand, Gabbard is my one “anyone but” candidate at this point in the race. Beto is an “anyone”, so he get my vote this round.

Yeah. Gabbard’s got some things going for her, but national electability isn’t one of them. So it’s probably everyone’s ‘short list for VP’ Beto in this one.

Beto is inexperienced but probably the best campaigner the Democrats have. Not my ideal choice but worth consideration.

As an environmentalist, I went with Tulsi. I think she shares more of my major concerns. Beto is a little too close to the natural gas industry.

This one is easy. Beto for sure.
