68. The news media always focuses most on NYC ... How is Cuomo better than Inslee who has

Thu Mar 26, 2020, 09:11 PM

Mar 2020

done a great job in WA. If handling this crisis is what the country is looking for, he has an advantage.

He was a candidate and did not gain traction, but he is probably on all ballots. Nearly half the delegates have not been awarded. If Sanders and Biden imploded, could he reenter before April and get most of the remaining delegates?

Of course, that is not realistic. It is still nearly certain that Biden will get the majority of planned delegates and he will be the nominee. It would not be seen as legitimate to just draft someone.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
