Despite his weak polling in California, there’s a silver lining emerging for Joe Biden in the biggest delegate prize on the board next week
SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Despite Joe Biden's weak polling in California, there’s a silver lining emerging for him in the biggest delegate prize on the board this week.
These “perfect” Democratic voters dropped from 57 percent turnout by this point in 2008 and 62 percent turnout in 2016 to 46 percent turnout so far this year, according to the data compiled and shared by Mitchell, vice president of Political Data Inc. That means Biden, coming off South Carolina, has more room to expand his support before Tuesday.
Experts are coalescing around a 10 million figure as the turnout for the presidential primary, up from the roughly 8.5 million in 2016. About 40 percent of Democrats expected to vote have so far turned in ballots. California will award 415 delegates, more than a fifth of the total needed to clinch the nomination.
Recent polls show Sanders averaging a massive 18 percent lead over a second-place Warren, with Biden running in third and averaging 11 percent, according to figures from Real Clear Politics.
