<snip>
At the end of the meeting an informal, show-of-hands straw poll was taken on presidential preferences of those in attendance. John Edwards was the clear choice of the getting 47 votes. Next was Al Gore, who is not a declared candidate with 27, followed by Dennis Kucinich (17), Barack Obama and Bill Richardson with 12 each, Hillary Clinton (2), and Joe Biden (1). Six were undecided, and neither Chris Dodd nor Mike Gravel received any votes.

1. This took place at the Progressive Caucus meeting within the Dem party.

It was not the Exec Board meeting.

"At the Progressive Caucus three issues, immigration, how delegates to the national convention will be selected, and net neutrality dominated the attention of caucus members."
