In fact, pretty much the entire conversation has changed since that poll was taken on the 27th.

Edit: "Breaking" and "new" are demonstrably false.

For example. In NC, Sanders and Biden are basically tied (26 Sanders, 24 Biden) Bloomberg at 15, Warren at ll, Pete at 7. Now add an equal split for all the remaining candidates. Sanders and Biden now have 28 and 26, while Bloomberg gets 17 and Warren 13. Steyer was getting 2. If Warren becomes viable that would more than make up for the extra percent Sanders gets.

Similarly Bloomberg is on the line in Texas (at 15%) Pete is at 8%. Give all of them 2 percent and Sanders does move to 36% but Bloomberg becomes way more likely to be viable and Warren at 10 becomes some more likely. If Warren is viable that takes delegates away from Sanders.

A poll from the 27th when the media was telling everyone Sanders is inevitable, yet the inevitable candidate still only receives 21%? THAT'S the real headline here.

Mar 2020

The fact that he was able to correctly call his close win in Iowa shows that he and his campaign know the math when it comes to his support.

If the rumors are true that he is bowing out to consolidate the "moderate" vote and looking to coordinate with Biden going forward, that tells you everything you need to know about who he and his campaign think their supporters will migrate to.

Sun Mar 1, 2020, 10:16 PM
Mar 2020

have any idea where Pete is on the issues as opposed to Sanders

Something doesn't sync right here, especially since Pete made it very clear why he feels Sanders would be a disaster

How could someone who says they support Pete, say their second choice would be Sanders, knowing what Pete's views about Sanders are?

Something doesn't make sense here

I work with quite a few people who are members of that community and they picked Pete because he is a member and thought iit was most important for them personally to support a member of their community even though they ldentified more with Sanders and Warren on policy.
