Can’t really get a read on where people would go if their candidate wasn’t in the race. You can make some guesses... but that’s it.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden

If two of the three dropped out and endorsed the third, that candidate could potentially be the front-runner.

Contrary to claims, supporters of the "moderate" candidates aren't likely going to rush en masse to support Sanders.

Especially if most other candidates drop out soon. That could coalesce into a single moderate candidate. Time will tell.
