Very strong showing by Minnesota they can be proud. I hope this will make Biden reconsider sending weapons to Israel.
I chose to vote against Trump instead of making a misguided attempt at hurting the better real candidate. When you all get Trump again and he doubles down on Isreals actions I hope you regret it.
This was just the primary
Trump is not a candidate in the Democratic primaries.
In Minnesota you don’t have to register with a party, just pick a ballot.
And Trump isn’t on the same one as Biden.
Yeah so you can waste a vote by voting undecided or you can at least attempt to nominate someone other than Trump on the Republican ticket.
I cannot. I live in Texas, where uncommitted was not on the ballot.
I voted for a non-Biden candidate in the primary in order to register my disapproval with his unconditional support for the genocide that party leadership has always wanted.
I had progressives to vote for further down.
Well we don’t have that problem here and I was talking about Minnesota voters.
Is this some kind of coordinated attempt by the DNC to fake total support for Biden? Or are you just unable to read, or worse?
Hahahaha what a fuck you to Dean Phillips. I get that he only ran in hopes that he could bait Whitmer or Newsom into joining, but “Uncomitted” beating him is pretty funny
This is the best summary I could come up with:
MINNEAPOLIS — Almost 45,000 Minnesota Democrats voted for “uncommitted” instead of President Joe Biden during the presidential primary, according to unofficial results of nearly all precincts Tuesday night — an effort to protest the Israel-Hamas war and put political pressure on the White House to call for a permanent cease-fire in Gaza.
That support surpassed the 7.8% of Democrats who cast ballots for Minnesota’s own U.S. Rep. Dean Phillips, who launched a longshot campaign against Biden.
Minnesota organizers pushing the “uncommitted” movement said turnout exceeded expectations and claimed victory in achieving their goal: to send the Biden administration a message that voters are unhappy with his position on the war.
“We’re doing this so President Biden knows that Democrats have had enough of this endless support for a genocidal regime,” Asma Mohammed, a lead organizer for Uncommitted Minnesota.
The group didn’t set a threshold they sought to clear before going into Super Tuesday, but celebrated the turnout that will likely yield delegates for the national convention in August.
“I want to send President Joe Biden a very strong message that the way he’s handling this is atrocious,” said Uncommitted voter Bethany Waldron.

Expect Putin’s trolls to pounce on this, if they haven’t already
