"Dean Phillips' Rise in New Hampshire Politics: A Threat to Biden?"

Representative Dean Phillips faces an uphill battle in his long-shot bid to defeat President Joe Biden in the New Hampshire primary, with recent polls showing Biden with a formidable lead despite voters having to write-in his name on the ballot. Phillips and progressive author Marianne Williamson hope to make a strong showing in a state where Biden's campaign has all but abandoned, but the complex circumstances and DNC penalties may hinder their momentum. Despite his poor approval rating and failure to get on the ballot, Biden is still likely to win in New Hampshire, but the result would serve more as a psychological win as the delegates won't ultimately be counted.
