If Biden can win TX & keep CA within single digits, he could have insurmountable lead by tomorrow

That's paraphrasing a tweet from David Wasserman of Cook Political Report, posted a few minutes ago:






If Biden can win TX and keep CA within single digits, he'll likely exit Super Tuesday with a delegate lead that's close to insurmountable.

Joe Biden is one hell of a guy, just all around positive energy and he will destroy Trump on a debate stage

He's always put the party first and is in a good position to save our Democracy from 45

Not that long ago, there was talk about Biden possibly not being viable or almost all of the delegates going to BS. These over 400 delegates could have been a major part of gaining a majority. Ideally, Biden can offset the CA deficit with just one of his blowout wins like Virginia.

Even if Biden doesn't effectively end the Sanders campaign tonight, he does it on March 17 and the beginning of April when Georgia votes.

over performing and Bloomberg is cratering. So far, Bernie is not picking up vote from the recently dropped candidates. Bloomberg had around 14% in California, if Biden takes half that, he is within a few percent of Bernie, that's not counting the Buttigieg and Klobuchar vote that likely goes to him.
