What Went Down At The January Democratic Debate

Sanders and Warren, Micah. Ask a harder question next time!

From our primary forecast model’s POV, do the Sanders and Biden lanes overlap more or do the Sanders and Warren ones?

Buttigieg uses his answer on the USMCA to talk about how his part of the country, the industrial Midwest, felt left behind by free-trade deals. Yesterday, I visited a Buttigieg field office in Newton, Iowa, which was hit hard by the closure of a big Maytag factory in 2007. A couple dozen volunteers squeezed into the tiny office for a weekly meeting. According to Buttigieg’s staff there (who, of course, are probably biased), it was the most mobilized they have ever seen that area for a candidate.
