Since this article doesn't seem to have any interactive element to it, I'm going to hold a series of polls to determine the winner:

#DemBracket #DemPrimary2020 #2020Polls #MarchMadness #BracketOfRandomThings #Bracketology #FITN @TheDemocrats

First matchup in the #Lefties portion of the bracket! Of these 2, which would you rather support in the 2020 Democratic primaries for president?
1. @SenSanders i.e. @BernieSanders #Sanders2020
2. @ninaturner #Turner2020
#TwitterPoll #FeelTheBern #OurRevolution

(Oops, I forgot to include the seeds; Bernie is 1st seed and Nina is 8th seed. The '1' and '2' by their names aren't seeds, but rather correspond to the poll options. I'll fix this in the rest of them, seeing as someone's already voted in this one.)

#PollResults: looks like Bernie handily won that won. On to the next one...

Next matchup in the #Lefties portion of the bracket! Of these 2, which'd you rather support in the 2020 Democratic primaries for president?
Option 1, Seed 4: @TulsiGabbard aka @TulsiPress #Tulsi2020 #Gabbard2020
Option 2, Seed 5: @NYCMayor @BilldeBlasio #DeBlasio2020
#TwitterPoll

#PollResults: tie! I'll give it to Tulsi based on her seed:

Next matchup in the #Lefties portion of the bracket! Of these 2, which'd you rather support in the 2020 Democratic primaries for president?
Option 1, Seed 3: @keithellison @ellisoncampaign #Ellison2020
Option 2, Seed 6: @SenSherrodBrown @SherrodBrown @DraftBrown
#TwitterPoll

#PollResults: Phew, someone finally voted! Sherrod Brown wins with the 1 and only vote in this poll. Please people, I hope more of you vote in the rest of these...

Final 1stround matchup in the #Lefties portion o'the bracket! Of these 2, which'd you rather support in the 2020 Democratic primaries for president?
Option 1, Seed 2: @SenWarren @elizabethforma #Warren2020
Option 2, Seed 7: @RepGutierrez @LuisGutierrez #Gutierrez2020
#TwitterPoll

#PollResults: Elizabeth Warren wins, as might be expected. On to the governors portion of the bracket, which looks kinda mis-seeded to me, but whatever...

First matchup in the #Governors portion of the bracket! Of these 2, which would you rather support in the 2020 Democratic primaries for president?
Option 1, Seed 1: @TerryMcAuliffe #McAuliffe2020
Option 2, Seed 8: @KateBrownForOR @OregonGovBrown #KateBrown2020
#TwitterPoll

#PollResults: In a major upset, Kate Brown wins! While Terry McAuliffe being number 1 is a big part of why I consider this #Governors portion mis-seeded, I had no idea people were such big Kate Brown fans, much less even knew who she was… maybe people're just THAT anti-McAuliffe

Next matchup in the #Governors portion of the bracket! Of these 2, which would you rather support in the 2020 Democratic primaries for president?
Option 1, Seed 4: @GovofCO @hickforco @Hick2014 #Hickenlooper2020
Option 2, Seed 5: @NYGovCuomo @TeamCuomo #Cuomo2020
#TwitterPoll

#PollResults: Hickenlooper wins, or rather, Cuomo loses, as might be expected. Next matchup contains what I think the REAL number 1 seed for this portion should be...

Next matchup in the #Governors portion of the bracket! Of these 2, which would you rather support in the 2020 Democratic primaries for president?
Option 1, Seed 3: @GovInslee @JayInslee #Inslee2020
Option 2, Seed 6: @MartinOMalley @Ready4Martin #OMalley2020
#TwitterPoll

#PollResults: no one voted...
:-(

Re-holding the previous round for the benefit of @Ready4Martin who missed a chance to vote; pick 1 to win the nom:
Option 1, Seed 3: @GovInslee @JayInslee #Inslee2020
Option 2, Seed 6: @MartinOMalley @GovernorOMalley #OMalley2020 #OMalleyWouldHaveWon
#TwitterPoll #Ready4Martin

#PollResults: This time O'Malley wins, as I expected, despite the seeding. On to the next round, which I also think is mis-seeded.

Final first-round matchup in the #Governors portion of the bracket! Of these 2, which would you rather support in the 2020 Democratic primaries for president?
Option 1, Seed 2: @GovernorBullock #Bullock2020
Option 2, Seed 7: @JerryBrownGov #JerryBrown2020

#TwitterPoll

#PollResults: Cory Booker wins! @CJluvsMJ27 will probably be happy. All right, one more #Senators matchup and then it's on to the #Wildcards...

Final first-round matchup in the #Senators portion of the bracket! Of these 2, which would you rather support in the 2020 Democratic primaries for president?

Option 2, Seed 8: @RepJohnDelaney @JohnKDelaney #Delaney2020
#TwitterPoll #AmericanPossibilites

#PollResults: Biden wins, but it's a lot closer than I expected! Where were all these voters previously? Also, how many of the Delaney voters actually know who Delaney is, vs. just voting for him because he's not Biden?
