Bore, I was going to just vote for Shri Thanedar but I realized that I was standing in the way of democracy by not offering you my vote to cast first.
Some data from actual pollster Bernie Porn (REALLY THAT'S HIS NAME):
Whitmer is doing better among men, where she has 53 percent support, than among women, where her support is 45 percent.
El-Sayed is winning among women between the ages of 18 and 49, where he has 40 percent support, compared to 28 percent for Whitmer.
Thanedar is doing well in Detroit and winning the black vote, with 37 percent support, compared to 29 percent for Whitmer.
Key endorsements:
Gretchen Whitmer: Chelsea Handler
Abdul El-Sayed: Piper Perabo, Ben Affleck, Michael Moore
Disclosure: I did not know about the Handler endorsement until 10 seconds ago, my boo in the poll was there before I knew this.Whitmer is the DNC/AFL-CIO/etc. candidate, El-Sayed is the Bernie/Ocasio-Cortez/Our Revolution candidate.
Now I know what some of you may be asking.
"Who gives a fuck? "But benji, I thought you didn't vote?" And that's right! In the general election. But after my successful vote for Rocky "Roque" De La Fuentes in the 2016 Presidential Primaries, and their attempts at shaming me into voting in 2014, I feel it's important to continue voting in the Democratic primaries and the Democratic primaries only. So that when they check the records they find a voter who votes consistently in the Democratic primaries but then fails to vote in the general election. I also feel that my 2016 vote may have been dismissed as merely a "Berniebro" which is why they failed to send me garbage at all during 2016 and although we can chalk some of that up to Hillary's failed campaign, I would not want to be lumped in with the dangerous brogressives. I would like them to know this is about more than just Bernie, it's about being annoying in a very specific manner that only a handful of people will recognize.
I WILL NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES SELL THIS VOTE, but I will completely accept gifts alongside advice and "promise" to adhere to it.
There is no Mupepe option because Michigan does not count write-ins that are not registered candidates as actual votes. I will write Mupepe in however for State Representative as that nomination race is not contested. This will cause someone to have to read the ballot and then check if there is a Mupepe registered for the race. Hooray!
I hope that we will also see a Mupepe vote in 2020.
