New poll shows who Dems want in 2028 — and it’s not Kamala Harris (www.yahoo.com)

The poll, released on May 30 by Atlas Intel, found Pete Buttigieg, the former mayor of South Bend, Indiana, and former transportation secretary in the Biden administration, to be the top pick among Democrats who responded to the survey.

A total of 31.5% of self-identified Democrats who responded to the poll said they would vote for Buttigieg for president in four years, according to the poll.

Other surveys in May from firms such as Echelon Insights and McLaughlin & Associates have found Harris in first place in the hypothetical primary, making Atlas Intel’s poll stand out among the rest.

Harris is the third most popular pick among Democrats in the poll, falling behind U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y.

The Democrstic party was stuck between opposing Trump and opposing leftism and categorically chose to oppose leftism. That's been the conundrum they can't figure out.

I dunno. They seem to have figured it out.

I had meant doing both, but yeah, you're absolutely right: they figured out their preference real quick.
