Many projections regarding the current presidential race among the Democrats appear to be in favor of former vice president Joe Biden. In a new national poll conducted over the weekend, Biden is revealed to be taking the lead against senator Bernie Sanders.
The Democratic Primary seems to be in favor of Biden according to a new national poll by NBC News/WSJ. The poll revealed that 61 percent of Democrats are supporting Biden, while 32 percent voted for Sanders and four percent voted for congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard, who remains to be in the race despite the huge gap between her and her fellow candidates. The former vice president managed to gain a surge of victories over the past several weeks despite trailing behind Sanders and their other presidential hopefuls during the first three contests.
Delegates-wise, Biden has over 150 delegates more than Sanders, and projections have shown that he is most likely going to take the majority of the remaining delegates in the upcoming primaries to secure the nomination. The former vice president is expected to win the Florida primaries, a key state that holds a lot of delegates.
Biden has also gathered his share of strong backers over the weeks, now gaining twice the amount of backers than the Vermont senator.
Meanwhile, CNN reports that the former vice president is now standing for the bankruptcy plan once proposed by former Democratic presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren. It was a plan that brought the two lawmakers into conflict. During a virtual town hall in Illinois last week, Biden said that this would be something that both he and Sanders will agree on. Biden even noted a portion of Warren’s proposal that allows student loan debts to be eliminated in bankruptcy similar to other debts.
“I’m going to endorse - I’ve endorsed - Elizabeth Warren’s bankruptcy proposal, which in fact, goes further, allows for student debt to be relieved in bankruptcy, provides for a whole range of other issues that allows us to, in fact, impact on how people are dealing with their circumstances,” said Biden, during the virtual town hall.
Warren’s team were informed of Biden’s endorsement beforehand, and both teams were reportedly contacting each other up until the announcement. According to a Biden aide, the former vice president may explain more about his support towards Warren’s bankruptcy plan in the debate against Sanders.
