Disgruntled progressive activists and organizations have embarked on a campaign to push voters to mark themselves “uncommitted” in protest of Biden’s stance on the Israel-Hamas War.

With 95% of the expected vote tabulated, 70.5% of voters backed Biden while 19.0% went uncommitted, according to a tabulation by The Associated Press.

In Minnesota, more than 45,000 marked themselves “uncommitted” — a number greater than the margin by which Hillary Clinton defeated Donald Trump in the state in 2016.

    With effort, a protest vote might help get Donald Trump elected. Donald Trump literally stated that Israel should finish the job.

          Anyone willing to turn out for a protest vote in a primary is unlikely to be someone who sits out a general.
