I will put in the caveat that I didn't hover over any of the candidates images in the section for "Second Choices" which provided some information as to who else voters would move onto if they withdrew. Based upon those responses it would look more favorable to Biden than my quick lumping of all 14% shifting from Warren to Sanders.

I do agree with your statement after what you quoted from me. None of the candidates should count on another candidate to drop out and steer all of their supporters in their direction. I also don't believe that Warren will endorse Sanders if she withdraws. She has already demonstrated her wisdom in that regard.

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