    nope, the repubs need them...

    it's reciprocal & symbiotic...

    both parties actually depend upon each other to survive...

    It wouldn't be close, Bernie's whole platform is predicated on massive tax increases. Not a good jump off point in a good economy, that sort of thing only sells when folks are suffering and are willing to pay anything for relief...

    Remember who he's running against. Trump literally fell in love with the leader of a Communist country we're still technically at war with.

    Or a VAT. How will those below the median income level enjoy 25% on their diapers and tennis shoes?

    Ike wasn't challenging the core principles of the Founders, Bernie and his commie friends are...

    Actually...it's their party, they should never have invited Bernie in, giving him a platform.

    Bernie really whooped the other candidates. But right now, Bernie has 46.6% of the vote, and the others have about 53.4% of the vote. More Democrats voted against him than voted for him. If this pattern keeps up, it's going to be an interesting convention.

    You now have an insight into preferential voting.

    I am thinking so too, Bernie is gonna be our next President

    finally the working class will be remembered again, the rich are doing fine, the working class needs attention, we need the President to have their backs

    we need to address foreign outsourcing, foreign imports, especially with Artificial Intelligence advancing

    put the power back in the hands of the people (and by people, I do not mean the Corporations)

    Bernie would get more of that vote if there was less candidates

    yes, more candidates means the vote is split among more Candidates

    Republicans experienced this in 2016

    the RNC choose not to have debates for the republican candidates, and to not even have Primaries in some states, they plan to pick for Republicans, they do not trust republicans to pick for themselves

    Yes, he would have got some of that vote that voted for the others. Anyways, I must say the Democrats are making this interesting.

    only ones having people sign NDA's are Trump and Bloomberg

    ...cause they do not want it getting out how corrupt and inefficient they are.

    You're looking at the County Delegate Equivalents. Popular vote, Bernie leads with ~40%: https://elections.ap.org/dailykos/results/2020-02-22/state/NV

    Also, what is with Warren's first Alignment numbers on AP right now? It just shot up over 200K as of the last batch. Looks like someone may have fat fingered that.

    Thats a poor representation.

    He was the first POTUS to visit, and he is seeking peace there-more than any POTUS has done since the Korean war began.

    This is silliness and perhaps projection.

    Trump is at 95% popularity in his party-so no need to waste resources that can go to the general.

    No, he really isn't.

    He is upholding the values of the Founders, just not in the way you have been brainwashed to believe.

    And, for the love of god, please educate yourself on the difference between Stalinistic communism and Democratic Socialism.

    It will make the transition so much easier.

    Nope. I never said I wanted to impeach Trump. I am just making a point of the reason they used to impeach Trump and how that can backfire just like Reid's nuclear option.

    As of the latest AP update (49.88% Precincts reporting), Biden has fallen behind Pete in the popular vote:

    Sanders, Bernie - 21,864 = 39.94%
    Buttigieg, Pete - 10,046 =18.35%
    Biden, Joe - 9,921 = 18.12%

    Biden still leads Pete in County Delegates:

    Sanders, Bernie - 3,564 = 46.64%
    Biden, Joe - 1,471 = 19.25%
    Buttigieg, Pete - 1,175 = 15.38%

    Something else I find interesting is Steyer's collapse of support vs Klobuchar's. They had nearly identical supporter numbers on first alignment, but on final alignment:

    Klobuchar, Amy - 4,179 = 7.63%
    Steyer, Tom - 1,864 = 3.4%

    Given that he outspent all other candidates in Nevada, this may indicate he drops before Super Tuesday with another poor showing in SC.

    Last thing - with right at half precincts reporting, the pace is on track to be right at around 109K in turnout. This is slightly under 2008 levels (115K).
