*NEW* EPIC-MRA (B+ Rated) Poll - Michigan: Biden 51%, Sanders 27%

[Skya Rhen]

Former Vice President Joe Biden, riding a wave of momentum from primaries in South Carolina and Super Tuesday states, comes into Tuesday’s Michigan primary with a 24-point lead over Sen. Bernie Sanders in a new Free Press poll.

If Biden’s 51%-27% lead in the poll, done by EPIC-MRA for the Free Press and its media partners, holds, it would guarantee him a signature victory in Michigan — a battleground state that helped President Donald Trump win the White House four years ago. It could also starve Sanders' formerly front-running campaign of delegates needed for the nomination and call into question how long his effort can remain viable.

“Something happened on Super Tuesday with (other) candidates getting out and people are all of a sudden questioning Bernie’s positions on issues,” said Bernie Porn, pollster for Lansing-based EPIC-MRA, which conducted the survey of 400 likely Democratic primary voters between Wednesday and Friday. “If anything, it may be low in terms of the percentage that Biden may get.”

3. If this is true, and I say "IF"....what is the path for Sanders going forward?

6. There is none.

Tuesday will essentially be the death knell for his campaign.

If he’s smart, he’ll drop out after Michigan, because Florida is coming up fast and that’s going to be an absolute drubbing, where Biden has been leading the polls by 50 points.

11. This, combined with all the state polls, just points to one thing....

... The Democratic Party is done with Bernie Sanders.

He could still fuck things up for us, but at least this is likely to be the last time.
