2020 South Carolina Primary Discussion Live Thread - Part III

Steyer dropping out is good news for Biden supporters. A large portion of his base are moderates and this will further consolidate Biden's vote.

Eventually, Klob, Pete and Bloomberg will drop out and consolidate the vote for Biden.

Thats why its dangerous for Bernie. Everyone knows that Bernie will lead in delegates from now to July. But if he cant get the majority, and if Biden can consolidate the moderate vote (which is happening) he will stay close enough for it to be a brokered convention in which the superdelegates will carry him over the line.

If I'm a Bernie supporter, I'd be worried. But thats because of the Dem establishment, its hard to trust them.
