Hypothetical Dem Ranked Choice Scenario

This is purely just a parlor game, but if there was a multi-round ranked choice, and Biden wasn't running for Dem nom, I could see this playing out like this, assuming this poll is accurate. Let's say the 2nd vote getter becomes VP:

1st round of voting:

Harris 23% Newsom 15% Sanders 12% Clinton 11% Kennedy 8% Buttigieg 7% Ocasio-Cortez 7% Warren 6% Abrams 3% Klobuchar 3% Pritzker 2% Williamson 1%

2nd round of voting:

Harris 23% Newsom 15% Sanders 12% Clinton 11% Kennedy 9% Buttigieg 7% Ocasio-Cortez 7% Warren 6% Abrams 3% Klobuchar 3% Pritzker 2%

3rd round of voting:

Harris 23% Newsom 16% Sanders 12% Clinton 12% Kennedy 9% Buttigieg 7% Ocasio-Cortez 7% Warren 6% Abrams 3% Klobuchar 3% 

4th round of voting:

Harris 23% Newsom 16% Clinton 13% Sanders 12% Kennedy 9% Buttigieg 8% Ocasio-Cortez 7% Warren 7% Abrams 3% 

5th round of voting:

Harris 24% Newsom 16% Clinton 14% Sanders 12% Kennedy 9% Buttigieg 8% Ocasio-Cortez 8% Warren 7% 

6th round of voting:

Harris 24% Newsom 17% Sanders 16% Clinton 14% Ocasio-Cortez 9% Kennedy 9% Buttigieg 9%

7th round of voting:

Harris 25% Newsom 21%  Clinton 18% Sanders 16% Ocasio-Cortez 9% Kennedy 9%

8th round of voting:

Harris 25% Newsom 21%   Sanders 21% Clinton 18% Ocasio-Cortez 13% 

9th round of voting:

Sanders 31% Harris 25% Newsom 24% Clinton 18%

10th round of voting:

Harris 35% Newsom 32% Sanders 31%

11th round of voting:

Newsom 52% Harris 46% (includes 2% voting blank, which was the case for all these rounds)

Gavin Newsom is the Democratic nominee w/ Kamala Harris as VP, despite them both being from CA!

I'll let someone else do the GOP version of this. Make your best guess on where the votes would go.

This ticket would make me self-immolate in front of the DNC.
