While they’re touting Biden, the delegate contest is still tight, with Sanders taking California.
Via Fox News:
Fox News contributor Karl Rove said on Wednesday that former Vice President Joe Biden’s Super Tuesday success does not rule out a possible comeback by Sen. Bernie Sanders.
“Let’s not kid ourselves, we’re focused on Biden who had a big night but the guy who had a better morning is Bernie because the results are coming in [from] California,” the former Bush White House deputy chief of staff told “Fox & Friends.”
Rove presented a whiteboard calculation of the projected outcome for the two candidates with California’s delegate count factored in. He explained that after California’s delegates are added into the totals, Sanders will close the gap significantly to around 68 delegates.
Rove said that it points to a “close outcome” as both candidates try to eclipse the 1,991 delegates needed to clinch the nomination.
