In Michigan, 100,000 protest votes have made waves across Democrats’ primary elections nationwide, just as the presidential election season is starting in earnest. The 'uncommitted' vote was far more successful than organizers expected. Now that this protest vote is here, and not going away, we look at why these votes matter and where it leaves President Joe Biden going into Super Tuesday.

In this episode: 
Andy Levin (@RepAndyLevin), Former Michigan Congressman
Ali Harb (@Harbpeace), Al Jazeera Correspondent
