Biden vs Rubio

[°Leprechaun]

Since there is a Clinton v Rubio, I was curious to see if there is a difference.
You can change your vote, of course.
I vote other answer, at least for now. 7 day poll

[Mr. Smith]

Biden, duh!

[Thunderbird is the word]

This scenario would basically involve the same optics as the 2008 election, only with the parties reversed.

[bagelman]

I wound be undecided at this time in this situation.

[Abraham Reagan]

Rubio!

[Thunderbird is the word]

I know that nobody said "discuss with maps" but what the hell:

Biden-Klobucher 278
Rubio-Ernst        260

Senate: Dems +1
Republican Gains: CO, NV
Democratic Gains: PA, IL, WI

[°Leprechaun]

Plausible map, it would be interesting to see Rubio win NV and NH but still lose the election.

Plausible map, it would be interesting to see Rubio win NV and NH but still lose the election.

Rubio would have a good chance of winning NM as well, but still lose. This is a plausible scenario for the GOP receiving a majority of the PV and losing the EV.

Florida is a must win for Republicans as this map shows. Clinton would win a narrow ec victory 271-267. Maybe not a likely scenario if Rubio (or Bush) were the opponent but even they could lose Florida, which has been trending more Democratic over the years.

[Devils30]

Rs are not winning NV, NM, CO, NH before FL.

[heatmaster]

Honestly, if it's Biden the Republicans have the advantage. If it's Hillary I think she wins. I would support Democrat in both.

But of course you'd support either Biden or Clinton...duh...you are a Democrat...aren't you Barack Van Buren? Enough said

[Horsemask]

I like Biden more than Hillary but I'd still vote for Rubio.

[Figueira]

In this hypothetical scenario, I think Biden probably wins, but who knows?
