Which combination of splits for the top tier do people most want, and which one do they least want?

Possibilities:
1) Biden and Harris are on one night, while Sanders and Warren are on the other.
2) Biden and Sanders are on one night, while Harris and Warren are on the other.
3) Biden and Warren are on one night, while Harris and Sanders are on the other.

(I ignore the question of which group goes on Night 1 vs. Night 2.)


3 > 2 > 1 for me, but all of them are preferable to the way it worked out last time.

Much better system, well done CNN.

I think I'm hoping for Warren/Sanders, Harris/Biden. Seems like the most interesting pairings.

Me too, but a friend pointed out that Harris going after Biden again could make her look bullyish, but I think it could also allow her to chip away at Biden more

The First Draw will include 10 candidates: Colorado Sen. Michael Bennet, Montana Gov. Steve Bullock, New York Mayor Bill de Blasio, former Maryland Rep. John Delaney, Hawaii Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, New York Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, former Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper, Washington Gov. Jay Inslee, Ohio Rep. Tim Ryan and author Marianne Williamson.

The Second Draw will include six candidates: New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker, South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg, former Housing and Urban Development Secretary Julián Castro, Minnesota Sen. Amy Klobuchar, former Texas Rep. Beto O'Rourke and businessman Andrew Yang.

The Final Draw will include four candidates: Former Vice President Joe Biden, California Sen. Kamala Harris, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders and Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren.

This is my preferred line up for the second night:

Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders, Andrew Yang, Amy Klobuchar, Beto O'Rourke, Steve Bullock, Julian Castro, Tulsi Gabbard, Jay Inslee & John Hickenlooper. Neither of these ten constantly interrupted during the first debates or talked over their alloted time. Then the ten real bullies can meet head to head during the first debate night lol. Cheesy


Edited as I forgot to include Julián Castro, stupid me.

Would be interesting to have one night with six females, one gay and three non-whites (Yang, Booker and Castro). Then the other night with only white males lol.

What time are they doing the draw tonight? I typically avoid CNN almost as much as Fox, but I'll watch this.

They have a full panel of analysts breaking down the results after each tier of the draw like it’s draft day. It’s truly remarkable television.
