0

“Super Tuesday” marked the return of Joe Biden, who could win in at least 10 states. Bernie Sanders won California, the state with the most delegates.

The return of the old favorite. “Super Tuesday”, the day marking the primaries with 16 elections and 1358 delegates to distribute, marked the comeback of Joe Biden, returned from a very bad start to the primaries. Benefiting from the withdrawals of Pete Buttigieg and Amy Klobuchar, who quickly gave him their support , the former vice-president appears to be the only one capable of countering Bernie Sanders and his good results in the first elections. If he should win in California, the independent senator from Vermont would win only four states, in which he obtains worse results compared to the primaries of 2016 – where they were only two major candidates, against four this year .

The results of this night should help rebuild the primaries: Michael Bloomberg, who spent more than half a billion dollars and has obtained (so far) only 9 delegates after having bet everything on this “Super Tuesday” “Will he join Joe Biden to conquer the centrist electorate he has dispelled and defeat Donald Trump? Will Elizabeth Warren, who came third in the state of which she is a senator, switch to Bernie Sanders, her longtime friend and representative of a popular movement from the left of the Democratic Party? Tulsi Gabbard, free electron of these democratic primaries, comes without surprise in last position, with only one delegate.

These primary Democrats, who counted up to more than 20 candidates, now only have two able to be the party’s representative for the election on November 3.
