There's a scenario where you could see the leading left-wing candidate getting substantially less support at a convention than in a poll like this -- but Jackson is a former state Senate president and close to the state's unions, who could play a big role.

Taking over the Strait and charging a 20% fee is just a remarkable end result of an administration that pledged to stop Middle East interventionism and also said this Iran war was a short term excursion.

Platner campaign spox denies this report: "He’s not made any decision on endorsing. Graham called Valli to thank her for her support and encouraged her to consider running if he stepped down."

Per source, Platner campaign has sent volunteers this two-question survey w a 48-hour deadline. "If the Democratic Party hopes to harness our movement, and avoid disillusioning the hundred of thousands of supporters who came into the fray because of our movement’s policies, it must consult the feedback and proposals of the people who built and sustained this."

The field of potential Platner replacements is getting quite large, but people in state still see the gov candidates -- Shah, Jackson and Bellows -- as having a leg up, since they've been doing the work which would help win a convention for the past year-plus.
