What Went Down In The 2020 Nevada Caucuses

According to preliminary entrance polling, just 15 percent of Nevada caucusgoers say they decided on whom to support in the last few days — that’s in line with previous caucuses here, but it’s quite different from the 51 percent who decided in the last few days in New Hampshire. Warren is doing a bit better among first preferences among this late-decider group than earlier deciders, perhaps reflecting her debate performance (this poll didn’t ask about whether the debate mattered to voters’ decision), but the group itself just isn’t that big.

Especially given his strategy in California, Clare. Sanders has really doubled down on Latino outreach efforts in that state, and that could prove decisive on Super Tuesday.

This is an idle thought that’s still forming, but I wonder if Sanders’s likely win and his campaign’s focus on Latino voters in the state will change the way that Democratic campaigns approach going after the Latino community in the future. It’s been historically more difficult to court that community because the parties haven’t put a lot of energy into bilingual campaign efforts. But this election feels different on that front.
