Yeah yeah shut up. This was more of a vote against the standard eDems than a 3rd place vote for Bernie. It’s a long long fall from the 1st/2nd tie to 3rd.
Thanks for putting this up. Been busy lately and kinda forgot about this.
No problem bro
I hadn’t thought about 3rd and was a bit surprised that it was so popular (Castro). I had been thinking more about Yang, but he just comes up a lot more.
I feel like Castro has been very good on immigration and just hasn’t done anything to piss anyone here off very much, thus he is doing well in the second/third choice poll, since a lot of people are now pissed at Warren and Pete. I still put them 2 and 3 because I think they’re still better on policy than others.
The big gap for me is what keeps shifting.
Originally, I think it was:
Then it became:
Then it became:
Now it’s:
Castro has all of .7% support nationally last I checked.
Castro essentially done at this point as he didn’t qualify for tomorrow’s debate and doesn’t have a single poll for December debate either
Yeah I’m just talking about the polls here.
Think I started at something like:
Liz
Bernie
…
Pete
Everyone else
Now I’m at:
Bernie
Liz
…
…
Everyone else
Castro isn’t even that notable among the “everyone else” he just seems cool
Voted YANG 3rd cuz if it comes to it just give me a check
Yang might be my 3rd (or 2nd or even 1st) if he had any kind of experience or record - depending on what that experience and record said about him.
He’s not said anything overtly stupid afaik so he gets a boost here for that
Castro apparently does have the Medicare for all who want it plan where it’s free. If you don’t have insurance you don’t have to buy-in. All newborns and anyone who loses employer insurance is automatically enrolled.
I don’t really see any big problems with Castro, other than him not having a chance.
Is it free or are you automatically enrolled and taxed?
Taxed? On his website it isn’t clear whether it’s free. In a debate argument he implied it was free. So, I don’t think it’s 100% clear. I’m not really going to check too hard, since he’s polling at 1%.
Same, I’m not totally sure. Taxed/billed for premiums would be my guess, unless you qualify for the subsidies and all that. Or maybe you’re only auto-enrolled if you do qualify? I feel like that’s what he said going back and forth with Biden in a debate.
