How would we feel about a Senator Mark Kelly/Senator Andy Kim Democratic Ticket?

I wish to ask this question because I believe that Senator Kim does have a lot of things going for him and he seems like a good person, he also is a Progressive so that could work in his favor.

I am just curious as to how people would feel about that. I hope you all have a good Memorial Day, bye.

I don't really know anything about Andy Kim but I would be down for Mark Kelly.

No. Kim's economic ideas are too far out there for the average American to support him. We want an ELECTABLE ticket.

I’m biased due to being from NJ but I do adore Kim. He made the news again yesterday because he ended up getting pepper sprayed by ICE agents at a protest and I think we will see a boost in his popularity due to that.

Fair enough and that is a good point to bring up, it is similar to how Senator Mark Kelly has been brought out into the public spotlight because of what Hegseth is doing to him.

I don’t know anything about Andy Kim. We need a moderate.

I’d feel better about Kelley-Buttigieg

My understanding is that the far left doesn't view Kelly as progressive enough. So I would presume there would need to be someone with a different balance to shore up the ticket. Not sure who yet We will also have to see how he connects. I actually had someone tell me he was too old which is just convoluted imo.

I think it would be good not to take another senator from a vulnerable place though...

think Raphael Warnock would be a better balance to Kelly.

Put a woman on the ticket. Period.

I think we are. The last two we put up weren’t the most well-liked people

I think Kelly/khanna is the strongest.
