Not a great expert about US Politics.
What about a Biden- Major Pete (I cannot even type that name) ticket?
Does it makes sense?
My guess is no because Pete is a white male that probably has the least amount of supporters that would vote if he were on the ticket, but not other wise. A non-white and/or female would probably turn out the most votes, so Kamala/Amy/Stacy Abrams are probably more likely.
Personally I'm hoping I'm wrong just so we can watch Pete debate Mike 'No Homo' Pence.
Could say the same about Bloomberg hurting Biden, as his voters second choice would've been Biden. Not like Bloomberg had a great performance, but it would've allowed Biden to further stretch his popular vote lead and his delegate count lead on Bernie.
You're absolutely right. Bloomberg is forecast to walk away with ~100 delegates. That could easily make a very big difference.
Also, Amy and Pete got a combined 200,000 votes in CA, I assume nearly all from early voters.
