BALTIMORE - More than 50,000 Marylanders voted "uncommitted" in the primary elections as a protest against President Joe Biden and his response to the Israel-Hamas war.
Despite cruising to the Democratic nomination, Biden has faced a substantial vote protest in several states, including Maryland.
Voters in Maryland's Democratic party for years have had the option to vote "uncommitted" instead of voting for a Democrat candidate.
The group "Listen to Maryland" says that while they know the "uncommitted" vote isn't expected to defeat Biden, it is expected to send a message that protesters are unhappy with the way his administration is handling the war in Gaza.

(644 posts)people voted for either Elizabeth Warren or Bernie Sanders even though both had been out of contention for months. How much overlap do you suppose there is in those voters?

Joe Biden
Donald Trump. Make your pick, it should be very easy, we have seen them both for 4 years. Who do you want to see for the next 4.
Uncommitted is not an answer. Its a cowards cop out.
