Cook Political Report's Wasserman: Barring a seismic event, this entire race is pretty much over

Found his tweets on this via an article from The Week at Yahoo News:

https://www.yahoo.com/news/pollster-declares-democratic-race-pretty-192229772.html

Former Vice President Joe Biden may have just secured his nomination.

When several more states vote and provide clarity in the 2020 Democratic primary race on March 17, Florida, the home of the fourth biggest chunk of delegates in the 2020 Democratic primary race, will be among them. And according to a St. Pete Polls survey of likely Florida Democratic primary voters out Thursday, Biden will likely dominate the state with 61 percent support to Sen. Bernie Sanders' (I-Vt.) 13.

It all prompted Dave Wasserman, the U.S. House editor at Cook Political Report, to tweet that this means "barring a seismic event, this race is pretty much over" and presumably going in Biden's favor.

Wasserman's two tweets start here, full text below:






Folks...barring a seismic event, this race is pretty much over.



To be clear, yes I mean the entire primaries.
If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
