“He certainly has a lot of support and infrastructure, both from his previous runs and in his capacity as vice president,” said Andres Ramirez, a Nevada-based Democratic strategist and former vice chairman of the Democratic National Committee’s Hispanic Caucus. “So that’s definitely going to be helpful to him … He definitely has a lot of friends.”
