President Trump tweeted that if not for Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders 'would have won almost every state on Super Tuesday.' That's not true, writes ed_kilgore
Ideological allies with significantly different bases of support. Photo: Justin Sullivan/Getty Images/2019 Getty Images Never one to show graciousness, President Trump greeted the news of the suspension of Bernie Sanders’s presidential campaign instantly with this nasty crack aimed at sowing dissension in the Democratic ranks:
First of all, Biden’s margin over Sanders was larger than Warren’s total vote in five of the Super Tuesday states he carried . And you might as well add a sixth where Biden would have surely won anyway: Oklahoma, where his margin over Bernie means that virtually every single one of the 13.4 percent voting for Warren there would have had to pull the lever for Sanders to catapult him to victory.
Morning Consult, for instance, found that 43 percent of Warren supporters would opt for Sanders as their second choice, while 36 percent would choose Biden. And a recent Ipsos/Reuters poll found that Warren supporters’ second-choice loyalties were evenly split, with 47 percent picking Sanders, and 46 percent backing Biden.
