Five takeaways from Super Tuesday — so far

WASHINGTON — Got whiplash yet? This race looks nothing like it did a week ago.
It is no longer Bernie Sanders versus a muddled mess of candidates in the moderate middle. Joe Biden emerged from Super Tuesday as the clear counterweight to Sanders. And he emerged strong.

Just like the DNC wanted. Just like I predicted.

That's what you're left with. The guy who doesn't even know what state he's in at any given time.



And, lol @ Warren, BTW... who came in third place in her home state. Chief Speaking Bull.



It's hardly a blowout for Uncle Joe though. Did you bother looking at the percentages? There are a LOT of pissed off Bernie supporters right now who are having flashbacks to 2016.

Voter turnout among Democrats is going to be at a historic low in 2020, and as Moody's predicted that's going to mean a blowout for Trump.

Do Right, Be Right. :)

And.... yanno... Somebody should probably tell him that he's running for President.




And his wife needs a tattoo that says "Joe's Wife" on her forehead so this doesn't happen anymore. Things get pretty awkward at the Biden family parties, one would imagine.

Why Did Biden Suddenly Sweep Virginia? Credit Trump, These Voters Say

FALLS CHURCH, Va. — They were disaffected Republicans in affluent Washington suburbs. They were shipyard employees in Norfolk. And they were health care workers in Petersburg.

No... I'm afraid there are far too many variables here.

I don't think this said much about Trump at all. It was much more likely a referendum on the far left wing of the party... The Sanders/AOC/Gang of Four/Cenk Uygur's Justice Democrats, etc...

But even saying that is tenuous at best, because of the nature of Virginia's Open Primaries.

They're just about as Open as you can get, with the only restriction being that you can't vote in both primaries.

Registration:

Virginia has nonpartisan registration. There is no option to affiliate with a political party on the voter registration form.


Details of voting in congressional and state primary elections:

Voters do not declare affiliation with a party in order to vote in primary elections, however they must choose one party's ballot.



I've said before on here my plan to vote Democrat in the Primary, but the laws in Indiana may keep me from doing that based off of how I voted in the 2016 general, even though our Primaries are considered "Open" as well. There is no such restriction on Primary voting in Virginia.


While everything your article here claims could possibly be true, it's much more likely that up to half of those who voted in the primary yesterday were people who are going to vote for Trump in November.

They know that they live in an important state in the election, and they are reminded every day of that. It's very likely that Republicans voted against Bernie because his brand of Socialism is scary to most people in this country, and on the off chance that Trump loses in November they'd feel much more comfortable with more of the same than wild left politicians gaining ground.
