Next up, Outstanding Supporting Actress. For 2000-2009 the winner was Melissa Reeves and the runner-up was Kristian Alfonso. Unlike Peter and Matt both are eligible this year, so let's see if we see repeats.
For reference, here's who won this each year this decade:
2010: Arianne Zucker (Runner-Up: Crystal Chappell)
2011: Crystal Chappell (Runners-Up: Melissa Reeves and Arianne Zucker)
2012: Arianne Zucker (Runner-Up: Eileen Davidson)
2013: Eileen Davidson (Runner-Up: Arianne Zucker)
2014: Alison Sweeney (Runner-Up: Arianne Zucker)
2015: Arianne Zucker (Runner-Up: Kristian Alfonso)
2016: Arianne Zucker (Runner-Up: Jen Lilley)
2018: Mary Beth Evans (Runners-Up: Camila Banus/Deidre Hall/Melissa Reeves)
2019: Camila Banus (Runners-Up: Linsey Godfrey and Melissa Reeves)
Ari's the only actress with more than one win, and she has four. Probably hers to lose.

I went with Kate, Melissa and Ari. Missy Reeves I just love, she's a very consistent grounded actress, and she was a presence all 10 years. Kate was wonderful and was maybe the breakout star of this decade. Ari really came into her own this decade, taking Nicole from a supporting vixen I never cared much about to making her one of this show's most iconic characters.
As for the rest... Kristian hasn't been well-served this decade. It's tough to be Hope without Bo, I get it, but she hasn't risen to the occasion.
Deidre's always been meh to me.
Alison Sweeney truly became the face of Days of our Lives for a while there and I love Sami forever but she's never been like a phenomenal actress and I think she suffered when they transitioned her from troublemaker (which Ali does great) to leading lady (which is less her thing). Also I'm sure she spent the least amount of time of this list actually on the show full-time.
Mary Beth Evans may well be the best actress on this list, but calling her a lead this decade was probably generous of me. I'm sick to death of Lauren Koslow and Kate. Without her kids on canvas (and they often weren't this decade) I see no point to her. Camila Banus, meh, wait your turn.

Arianne hands down. Nicole has been through the ringer and Arianne makes her so likable.
I also chose Kate Mansi because I love her and then Alison because even though Sami is annoying, Alison plays her so well.
MBE is terrific as well. Tough not to chose her.

I know she’s not popular but Kristian has been a favorite of mine since she started. I felt her greatest acting moments were when Zack and Bo died. You felt that gut wrenching pain her character was going through. Her chemistry with Peter and Melissa has always shined. And, I truly feel like she’s Doug’s daughter. The love that these two actors obviously share for one another shows.
I also chose Lauren because she can act her way through the silliest storylines and has made her character relevant to this day. I know she’s not a favorite character but she still has such great range as an actor and I root for her whenever she gets knocked down.
Finally I chose Deidre because she’s Deidre. She’s been with Days since the 1970s and is the total Diva of daytime television. Does it make her the greatest actress? No. But anyone who could have us glued to our sets the way we did when she was possessed gets my vote. It could’ve been the death of her career. But instead, she knocked it out of the ballpark.
