TLDR: It's Mayor Pete in the lead in this poll, followed by AOC in second.
And an AOC candidacy would really, really excite me if I didn't know that Democrats rig their primaries. It'll be someone that rich people love who gets the nod, likely Mayor Pete or Gavin Newsom, and then Democrats will wonder how they could have possibly lost to JD Vance.
People keep saying that, but I live in Missouri, where we just voted for a $15 minimum wage, required paid sick leave, and voted down an abortion ban.
Ergo, a red state that just democratically voted in the biggest pieces of Bernie and AOC's politics.
