What Went Down At The First Biden vs. Sanders Debate

Yeah, Geoffrey, both of them have seemed quite vigorous tonight. Maybe that’s something they knew they needed to focus on given the coronavirus news.

This is a key difference — if you look at the exit polls in aggregate, Sanders has been winning by about 10 points over Biden among Hispanics. But that could definitely change in Florida, to Amelia’s point.

Sanders’s comments praising aspects of the Castro regime could be a real problem for him among Cuban Americans in Florida, for what it’s worth. He’s done very well among Latinos so far, particularly in states like California, but of course the Latino/Hispanic vote is not a monolith, and Biden is likely going to beat Sanders among Hispanic voters in Florida on Tuesday.
