I'll say this again: Sanders continually does WORSE than he did in 2016...

...and there's no longer an excuse that his 2016 vote got chopped up by other candidates.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden

From the numbers, could have been as much as half of his support in 2016.

Interestingly enough, I think the campaign understood that, even if others didn't. The 30% strategy assumed that he'd lose a lot of his support from 2016 to 2020.
