We're still 32 days away from Election Day 2016, but voters are already thinking about 2020. A Politico/Morning Consult poll released Friday revealed that sizeable portions of Republicans and Democrats alike already have a candidate in mind that they'd like to see run for president next if their candidate loses this time around.

For Democrats, the top choice is Sen. Elizabeth Warren (Mass.): If Hillary Clinton doesn't clinch a victory on Nov. 8, 28 percent said they'd like to see Warren atop the ticket in 2020. Another 16 percent said vice presidential candidate Sen. Tim Kaine (Va.) would be their pick, while 9 percent said Sen. Cory Booker (N.J.) and 8 percent said New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo. Thirty-two percent said they didn't know who they'd root for, while 8 percent chose "other."
