If Ojeda stays in long enough (and especially if he makes it into the debates), I could see him winning a lot of Demosaur protest votes in places like Oklahoma, Arkansas, Kentucky, West Virginia, north Louisiana and the Florida Panhandle. I'm rooting for him tbh, not to win the nomination but to raise hell.

Yeah, the funny thing is it is not at all difficult to imagine him even winning the primaries outright in a lot of those states - even if - or especially if, he is not considered a major candidate. Many voters in those states who are registered D simply will not vote for a major Dem candidate associated with the national party, and will literally rather vote for people who are in prison (Obama famously lost the WV primary I think in 2012 to an inmate).

That does mean that even if Ojeda goes absolutely nowhere nationally, he could get a decent delegate haul from Appalachian states, and then have influence that way. I guess if that is his goal, it is not really a bad strategy.
He didn't lose but it was hella close for an incumbent president vs a inmate

Why are so many Democrats running? Such a fractured field may only end up helping Trump.


I mean the 2016 Republican primary was quite fractured as well. It didn’t seem to hurt Trump in the slightest.

President Ford's second term agrees with this too!

.
He was an incumbent president challenged in the primary this new situation has nothing to do with that

If you're referring to me then no.  I was simply saying that Eric Swalwell might get a singular vote out of himself.  Maybe.
I know I was counting his vote not yours
