The single most important number from Super Tuesday

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Want to understand how former Vice President Joe Biden stunned the political world on Super Tuesday, winning nine states and wresting back control of the delegate math from Sen. Bernie Sanders?

I'll explain it to you in one number: 30.2%.

That's the average margin that Biden won voters who made their mind up either on Tuesday or in the last few days before the vote in 11 states where CNN conducted exit polls. If you take out Vermont, Sanders' home state, the average margin of victory for Biden among late deciders over the second-place finisher in those states jumps to 33.2%. Which is nuts.

And speaks to the key element in Biden's victory: Momentum.

All the ones I know of were picking among those other than Saunders. Even before SC, most were close to their decisions.
