Forget a Presidential Run, Elizabeth Warren At Risk Of Losing Her Senate Seat In 2018

Tags: , , ,

By Tyler Durden, Zero Hedge:

As Democrats have struggled to rebuild in the “Post-Trump” era, one coping mechanism employed has been to focus on their potential contenders for the White House in 2020.  In fact, about a month ago we published a list, crafted by The Hill, of the top names being tossed around that were expected to make a bid for the Democratic nomination in four years (see “Here’s Who Democrats Say Are The Top 15 Presidential Candidates For 2020“).

Not surprisingly, and proving that Democrats learned very little from the 2016 election cycle, the list included several well-known establishment names including Hillary Clinton, Michelle Obama, Joe Biden and even Tim Kaine.  But, right at the top of the list at #1 was the ultra “progressive” Senator from Massachusetts, Elizabeth Warren.

But while Warren might be the Dems’ new hope for becoming the first female president in 2020 (something that Lena Dunham desperately needs in her life), a new poll from her home state suggests that she may want to focus on holding her Senate seat in Massachusetts before setting her sites on the White House.  According to a new poll from WBUR, 46% of registered voters in Massachusetts would like to “give someone else a chance” in the Senate while only 44% say Warren “deserves reelection.”
