Similar options in other states have picked up thousands of votes and earned delegate spots to the Democratic National Convention.

Insane that people will try to say this is a minority movement. Inspiring news from Wisconsin.

where a similar "uncommitted" option took about 13% and 19% of the vote in the Democratic primary, respectively.
In Wisconsin, "uninstructed delegation" represented 8.5% of the vote on the Democratic side as of 11:45 p.m. Tuesday night
It is by definition a minority movement.
- Yet, hopefully it's enough that it's sending the message that you can't just commit genocide, bolster a fascist border agency and policy, and expect to be re-elected. Some people have empathy, while others are harmed firsthand by his actions and policies. More than doubling the margin from your last election should hopefully be a wake up call to make yourself electable.
  Imagine my city's mayor shooting my husband dead in front of my eyes and then asking for my vote in the next election.
- It's a HUGE movement. Double the amount of people voted uncommitted this year's primary than voted FOR Biden in last year's election. It's enough to make a difference.
  
  Double the amount of people voted uncommitted this year's primary than voted FOR Biden in last year's election
  From the article.
  Voters who chose "uninstructed delegation" in Wisconsin's presidential primary Tuesday more than doubled the 20,682 votes President Joe Biden won the state by in 2020, sending a warning sign for his reelection chances in the battleground state.
  First, there wasn't an election last year. Second, the number of people who voted "uninstructed delegation" doubled the margin he won by (aka the difference between Biden and Trump's tally).
  Biden had 506,969 votes, or 88.6%.
  You are literally wrong on everything you said.
  Edit: the 506K is this year. 1.63M was the number of votes Biden received in the 2020 election in WI. source
