Bernie Sanders went into Super Tuesday as the front-runner, but overall it was Joe Biden's night. Here are 5 takeaways on where the race stands now ⬇️
That sets up what looks to be a sharp fight over the next two months between candidates with very different ideologies — Sanders paints in bold colors and wants radical change; Biden believes in progress accomplished by working with Washington's competing interests.
Exit polling revealed Biden"did well with moderates and conservatives, voters older than 45 and African Americans," according to The Associated Press. In Alabama, for example, Biden won nearly 70% of African American voters, who are a majority of the state's Democratic electorate. And don't forget about women. They powered Democrats' 2018 takeover of the U.S. House of Representatives. The AP reports Biden"enjoyed an advantage among women and college graduates." The Biden campaign and the2. Sanders' ceiling might be real, but the breadth of his support looked awfully limited on Super Tuesday. It's hard to see how he regains his momentum and expands beyond his loyal base after Tuesday night.
Sanders' hope has to be that he gets a boost from Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren, who had another disappointing night, finishing third behind Biden and Sanders in her home state. But she did gain delegates in almost half a dozen states Tuesday night. Before Tuesday, voters younger than 30 were not keeping pace with the overall increase in voter turnout. In fact, young voters' share of the electorate went down in three of the first four states compared with 2016.
