Its a US politics 'Super Tuesday' during the Asian FX timezone today

Keeping an eye on voting in Democrat primaries, maybe we'll get a clue from this who it will be up against President Trump at the nove November US election.

  • 14 states hold Democratic primaries
  • to decide a total of 1,357 pledged delegates
  • which is a whopping 34% of the total

The country's two biggest (in population) States decide

  • California and Texas
  • Also Alabama, Arkansas, Colorado, Maine, Massachusetts, Minnesota, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Utah, Vermont and Virginia.

Democrats award delegates proportionally

  • as opposed to the Republican Party where delegates are warded 'wiiner takes all' basis

S far:

  • Sanders wins in Vermont (report via NBC, CNN) … will get at least 2 delegates
  • Biden in Virginia (AP report) …. will get at least 16 delegates
Keeping an eye on voting in Democrat primaries, maybe we'll get a clue from this who it will be up against President Trump at the nove  November US election.

The state of punditry I have seen is that Biden is likely to get the nomination as he is deemed more electable than Sanders.
