This had nothing to do with him, but.i do agree with the sentiment 👏 Lochloosa Tuesday #142

I know a lot of people had hurt feelings about it, but the uncommitted movement was not "against" Biden. WhiskeyGrinder Monday #20

The effect is the same. If an elected official convinces someone to NOT vote in the primary * Oopsie Daisy Monday #25

The point of "uncommitted" is that people DID vote in the primary, participating in all races but voting "uncommitted" WhiskeyGrinder Monday #33

Once they declared themselves as "uncommitted" in the Primaries they never returned for the General. Oopsie Daisy Monday #34

Some did, some didn't; same as all voters. WhiskeyGrinder Monday #36

Cuomo is runnnig as an independent and will split the dem vote giving the repuke the election. mdbl Monday #68
