Bernie hasn’t dropped out. He was very annoyed when New York cancelled their primary last week and gave the delegates to Biden. He protested strongly about it.
Does that sound to you like someone about to drop out?
And who do you think the Bernie Bros will vote for if Bernie is somehow screwed out of the nomination if Biden drops out?
In 2016, 12% of Bernie supporters voted for Trump. They ars not fond of Hilary at all.
> Bernie hasn’t dropped out. <
Right. So all of his delegates are still his. The weirdness would kick in if Biden drops out while Bernie is still officially a candidate. It is my understanding that state rules would then apply. Some states would make the former Biden delegates free agents. But some reallocate them to the remaining candidates. The rules are quite intricate.
So I’m thinking MrEdd might be right. Bernie wouldn’t have enough delegates on his own to take the nomination. But if he gets enough of those reallocated delegates...maybe.
