Thread: 2020 US Presidential Race

^ Gabbard? GACK! :cringe:

Here's a look at who's polling the best in every Super Tuesday state.

Alabama

Polling on Alabama's Democratic primary is scarce. But according to forecasters at FiveThirtyEight, Biden is projected to win an average of 38 percent of the vote in the state. Sanders is the second most likely winner, though they predict he has a 1 in 10 chance of being victorious. Fifty-two delegates are at stake in Alabama's open primary.

American Samoa

American Samoa will award 6 pledged delegates based on the territory-wide vote. According to FiveThirtyEight's polling analysis, Biden and Sanders are essentially tied as each has a one-third chance of winning the most votes in the territory.

Arkansas

There are not many Democratic primary polls from Arkansas but one of the only surveys, recently conducted by Talk Business and Politics–Hendrix College Poll, found Bloomberg ahead of Biden by 1 percentage point. Thirty-one delegates will be awarded during the state's primary.

California

California will be the largest state in contention on Super Tuesday with over 400 delegates to allocate. According to the latest USA Today/Suffolk poll released on Sunday, Sanders is leading the pack with 35 percent support among likely primary voters. In second place was Bloomberg, who earned 16 percent support. Rounding out the top three candidates was Biden with 14 percent.

Colorado

Sanders is the top choice in Colorado, where 67 delegates will be awarded on Tuesday. According to the latest poll from KQED, the senator has 37 percent support from likely Democratic primary voters. In second place is Warren (20 percent) and in third is Biden (12 percent). The survey was conducted from February 20 to February 23.

Maine

In a poll conducted by Colby College last month, Sanders was shown with a 9-point lead among likely Democratic primary voters. He had 25 percent support, followed by Buttigieg with 16 percent support. In third place was Bloomberg with 14 percent. The Pine Tree State will award 24 delegates on Super Tuesday.

Massachusetts

Massachusetts is Warren's home state, but she is in danger of losing its 91 delegates to Sanders. The Vermont senator was in the lead in a Boston Globe/WBZ-TV, Suffolk University poll released Saturday. He had 24 percent support among likely voters, compared to her 22 percent support.

I see Chris Matthews has fallen on his MSNBC sword. This after comparing Sanders win in Nevada to the Nazis invading France among other things. Perhaps him and Biden can play Shuffleboard together.

david duke:

Democratic presidential hopeful Rep. Tulsi Gabbard has apparently gotten an endorsement she said she can do without — from former KKK leader David Duke.

bannon:

"[S]he's pulling from Trump voters. It could make it even tougher for Trump to win, particularly in states like Michigan and New Hampshire," Bannon told CBS News.

i don't claim to know everything.......certainly more than you, but not even close to everything.

there are several posters who provide cogent analysis and keen insight on this topic. you're just not one of them.

you're strength seems to be copy & pasting cartoons and dumbing down something you read online in the last 24-48 hours.

Your strength.... (I mean it's obviously not spelling and grammar or being original)....

Well I don't know, have you got one?

BTW it was Clinton who pushed the "Gabbard is a Russian asset" story, and Gabbard sued her for 50 million dollars. It might have cost her the Presidency....

clinton made the comment in 2019 on plouffe's podcast and the lawsuit was filed in 2020.

Mike Bloomberg is seriously lowering expectations for Super Tuesday. Fueled by more than $500 million in ad spending, the billionaire had bet big on success in the 14 states voting Tuesday to help him rack up delegates and seize momentum in the race.
But now he is expressing doubt about whether he will win any states Tuesday, although he pledged to stay in the race all the way through the convention in July.

Da next one. Crooked Hillary ain't done yet.

Well folks it's Tuesday. I've heard it is gonna be a super one. We'll see soon.
Tomorrow tis Flounce Wednesday.

Fooking hilarious, all this effort to elect someone who doesn't really give a fuck about the electorate and won't need to by virtue of all the money they roll in. Its a $8Bn circus show.

12:36 pm: Tulsi Gabbard is still in the race

The primary may be looking more and more like a two-man race between Joe Biden and Bernie Sanders, but Mike Bloomberg and Elizabeth Warren are still in the fight — as is Hawaii Rep.

Tulsi Gabbard, who continues to campaign despite near-nonexistent poll numbers and a total lack of support from the party establishment.

You’d be forgiven for forgetting that Gabbard, a frequent guest on Fox News opinion shows but a no-show in the last five national debates, is still trying to become the Democratic nominee.

Polling aggregates place Gabbard at 1% or less, well behind the three Democrats who dropped out of the race after the South Carolina primary.
But she’s still running, and took her campaign to Austin, Texas, Monday night to rally supporters ahead of Super Tuesday. – Kevin Breuninger

3:24 pm: Trump hits a sore spot for Dems

President Trump on Tuesday afternoon continued to try to exploit divisions within the Democratic electorate over Bernie Sanders’ front-runner status.
The president acknowledged Joe Biden’s gains in the polls, and accused Democrats of trying to snatch away Sanders’ lead in the primary.


“Biden has come up a little bit and I don’t know what’s happened with Bernie,” Trump said at the National Institutes of Health after a reporter asked him about Super Tuesday. “I think they’re trying to take it away from” Sanders, Trump added.


“I don’t know if that’s fair, but I guess it’s politics,” he said. “When you get right down to it, what’s fair?” – Breuninger

The first polls have closed!


Bernie wins Vermont - - - Biden wins Virginia

No surprises really. Vermont is Bernie Sander's home state.
Virginia is home to the kind of moderate Democrats who would be very nervous at a Bernie Sanders presidency.


Mixed reaction from the Bernie crews



The folks at the Bernie coffee shop were shocked that Virginia was called so quickly (with just 1 percent of the votes being tallied).
"I'm on the edge of my seat," one of the owners just yelled.

Over in Vermont, the results were broadcast live, which left the crowd booing and cheering simultaneously.

Watching on CNN only. Based on their projections so far Bernie is having good day Bernie not so good. Bloomberg and Warren sucking hind tit.

Still early though and delegate counts yet to come in.
