How is Eric Holder even in the top 10? He is honorable mentions at best. Andrew Cuomo is a weak candidate with corruption issues. Oprah Winfrey isn’t a serious candidate yet. Rest of the list is decent though.

Stop including Bloomberg in anything! No, Dems are not going to elect some moderate old white billionaire, he has no path what so ever. I can't even think of a single state he'd win in a primary.

[Zaybay]

Im surprised that Joe Biden isnt number 1, even though polling suggests he should be. It looks like newspaper columnists know more than pundits when it comes to politics.

A lot of the list is rather filler, Michael Bloomberg, Eric Holder, Oprah Winfrey. But I guess when there are only really 6 or 7 real canidates, you got to pad it out a bit.

Michael Bloomberg - 40%
Andrew Cuomo - 23%
Elizabeth Warren - 13%
Cory Booker - 12%
Kamala Harris - 7%
John Delaney - 4%
Others - 1%

WOW! The City that Bloomberg was mayor in and has popularity is willing to vote for him?! WOW, thats it, we found our candidate, folks! /s

It should be noted that many of these candidates on this list cant even win the primary in the first place, as it requires a large amount of states to vote for you with a large margin. Many of the Dem prospects are unlikely to do this.
Also, that poll is garbage. Of course NY city would support its previous mayor and its current Gov the most. The fact that Sanders and Biden are not on the list also skews the result. John Delaney having 4% is odd, but shows that maybe he may grab a delegate before dropping out. LOL that Gillibrand is not even on the list. Shes making all the moves and posturing, and yet, the voters allude her. Ill be honest, she has no chance in the primary at this rate when NY city doesnt even support her, and Cory Booker is able to nab 12%. If 1/2 your home state doesnt support you, what does that say about you?

I'm pretty sure that's fanfiction, not an actual poll.

Ah, I see, then this poll is garbage. (really gotta stop jumping the gun on these things)

This is just an example of how Bloomberg could win a primary, not an actual poll, and Gillibrand isn't going to run.

Unrealistic. Delaney would obviously be above 60.

The list is pretty LOL until you get to 6.

I have a hard time believing Bloomberg would win NYC let alone the state. The last time he ran there he just narrowly won re-election after outspending his opponent 5-1.

He wouldn't, especially against Cuomo and/or Gillibrand. And the idea of Bloomberg getting enough of a foothold in any of the early states to even be around by the time NY votes is comical.

Of course it won't matter since he won't even run. Just like the last 3 cycles when he was speculated about.

>Oprah Winfrey on the list.

Nope.

And where are the moderates? Are there no good "to the right if party mainstream" democrats running?

Unfortunately no

Man you know you're list is filler when you put meme candidates not in elected office over politicians that have established their interest in running. Eric Holder, Oprah Winfrey, and Michael Bloomberg over people like Bullock, Klobuchar, and Merkley is just embarrassing.

Biden is the most electable out of anybody on the list. Personally, I think a Biden/Harris ticket (with Harris running in 24) would be our best chance at beating Trump.
