Kamala Harris Falls Behind Jon Ossoff in New Democratic Straw Poll
The informal vote of 990 attendees also put Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez second and Pete Buttigieg third, while Harris drew just six votes.
- On Saturday in Washington, Georgia Senator Jon Ossoff topped a 2028 presidential straw poll at Crooked Con, securing 38.4% of the 990 votes cast by progressive attendees.
- Organized by Crooked Media, the convention held between Thursday and Saturday gauged presidential preferences following stunning Democrat victories in Republican strongholds during Tuesday's midterm elections.
- Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez finished second with 16.6%, while former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg placed third with 13.9%. Other contenders, including California Governor Gavin Newsom, each received less than 5%.
- Despite the poll win, Ossoff maintains he has "zero interest in running for president," a position reiterated during an October debate. Pollster Nate Silver called him a "compromise candidate" for the party.
- The informal result contrasts with broader national polling, where former Vice President Kamala Harris leads the 2028 Democratic field at 21.8%. Ossoff ranked fifth at 10.8% in the most recent The RealClearPolitics average.
