Who is your candidate for the Democratic nomination if the convention were held today?

This is totally un-scientific and does not include more than two choices, though I know there are other honorable Democrats who have announced their candidacy. It is a snapshot in time for today, July 2, 2015.

Thanks

O'Malley was my governor and I liked him, for the most part. Even if I didn't, I'd say he should be included in this poll.

If you think it's a waste of time, don't participate. Mean-spirited criticism is even more wasteful of people's time because it adds nothing to the conversation but discord among Democrats with an enormous amount in common, but very few things of disagreement.

because we don't support Hillary enough, they go down in massive flames, and then quietly rejoin the board as though nothing happened?

Like I said, there are many other honorable candidates who may may close the gap in upcoming months. Who knows who will be the top two in a few months?

It does surprise me the amount of animosity for such a harmless opinion poll.
