Sanders Biden Face Off on Tuesday Primary Day
Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?
Tuesday will be another important primary day for the Democrats.
2020 presidential candidates former Vice President Joe Biden and Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders will face off in six states to gather delegates in their quest to secure the Democrat nomination.
Voters in Missouri, Idaho, Michigan, Mississippi, North Dakota, and Washington will be casting votes.
Michigan has the biggest delegate outcome with 125, followed by Washington State with 89 delegates.
Super Tuesday delivered a series of huge wins for Biden and he now has a slight lead in the delegate count.
Biden scored big victories across the country including surprise wins in Massachusetts and Texas, and coupled with endorsements from his former competitors, he’s carrying a lot of momentum into tomorrow’s primary race contests.
Also, Biden was helped by the complete collapse of former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg.
But Sanders is by no means out of the race.
Sanders won states in the West including the crucial state of California.
Jesse Jackson announced his endorsement of Sanders.
We look to our youth for energy, expansion and inclusion which leads to growth.
The youth that come to these rallies represent hope, healing and promise for our nation.
It’s a joy to “feel the Bern” with Bernie. Keep Hope Alive! #VotingMatters @BernieSanders pic.twitter.com/FklCpzOao6— Rev Jesse Jackson Sr (@RevJJackson) March 8, 2020

President Trump tweeted a montage of Biden’s blunders on the campaign trail.
WOW! Sleepy Joe doesn’t know where he is, or what he’s doing. Honestly, I don’t think he even knows what office he's running for! pic.twitter.com/454v9GFpgF

It’s now a two-man race and Sanders is seeking an advantage by running as the outsider by calling out the Democrat establishment for colluding against his run for president.
Sanders’ strategy can result in a deep political divide among Democrats which could harm Democrat turnout and help President Trump.
