First Read: “One theory of the 2020 race for the Democratic nomination is that the delegate chase in the Super Tuesday states — California (Harris’ home state), Texas (O’Rourke’s), Massachusetts (Elizabeth Warren’s), Minnesota (Amy Klobuchar’s) and Vermont (Sanders’) — will go a long way in determining the eventual winner.”
“The logic: If you can rack up delegates in your state as well as the competition’s home states under the Democrats’ proportional allocation system, you’re going to be in good shape.”
“The other theory of the 2020 Dem race is that Iowa and New Hampshire are only more important than ever. How viable will Harris be on Super Tuesday if she can’t finish in the Top 2 or Top 3 in Iowa?”
