4 out of 5 Democrats say it's important for Joe Biden to pick a running mate with governing experience, according to a new poll. They're far less invested in whether he chooses a woman or a person of color.
The survey found that Biden has a choice between picking from a few better-known women who are viewed slightly more unfavorably than favorably by voters—Harris and Sens. Elizabeth Warren and Amy Klobucharwho all ran for president against Biden — or selecting from a group of others who are essentially blank slates to voters, including Whitmer and Sens. Tammy Baldwin of Wisconsin and Catherine Cortez Masto of Nevada.
“While former 2020 candidates have an advantage in name ID, voters place a premium on executive and legislative experience for the Democratic vice-presidential pick," said Tyler Sinclair, Morning Consult vice president. “This experience is top of mind for voters amid this pandemic, as seen in the high approval ratings for their governors.”
The POLITICO/Morning Consult survey reveals differences in the breadth of appeal among the best-known contenders. And it establishes clear differences in their bases of support. But Klobuchar enjoys higher net marks in the most categories overall, including several key ones. The Minnesota senator bested her two colleagues among all voters and in every region of the country — the Midwest, Northeast, South and the West. And Klobuchar had a stronger image among white voters, independents, Republicans, moderates and conservatives and those with a favorable view of Trump.
