On 538, Bernie has gone from 45% to 20% for a majority of delegates - in less than a week

Biden's chances have doubled from 8% to 15%
The chance of no candidate getting a majority have skyrocketed to 65% from <50%.

Joementum is real.

But this is becoming a two person race, and I'm guessing that after tomorrow many will drop out leaving both Biden and sanders in the 30s or 40s in national polls and probability of winning.
