I've not checked out the polls in Michigan, but I just early-voted for Sanders a couple days ago. Biden is just too eager to violate our civil liberties for my taste.
It will be quite an upset if Biden manages to win the nomination without coming in first or second in New Hampshire. History shows that that's pretty unlikely to happen. But we'll see what happens I guess.
I think you guys are placing way too much emphasis on the first place winner in some of these contests. Say a hypothetical state has 52 delegates to award. If someone wins 27 of those delegates and another person wins 25, the guy who won 27 delegates may have won the state, but the guy who got 25 delegates is far from out of the game.
It'll be good for the Republicans if Biden is the nominee. When Trump defeats Biden in November, the left will say that it was because the Democrats didn't nominate an extremist. Then in 2024 when there is no incumbent, the left will force the Democrats to nominate a total nutcase, which will result in an easy victory for whoever the Republican nominee is.
