Biden, Tulsi and Sanders will take on each other in six states holding primary contests on March 10 in what has been dubbed “Mini Super Tuesday.”
Those states are:
  • Idaho, 20 pledged delegates
  • Michigan, 125 pledged delegates
  • Mississippi, 36 pledged delegates
  • North Dakota, 14 pledged delegates
  • Missouri, 68 pledged delegates
  • Washington, 89 pledged delegates
  • Democrats Abroad, 21 pledged delegates
The six states offer a combined 373 pledged delegates.

The former vice president, who swept the South on Super Tuesday, leads in pledged delegate totals ahead of the March 10 primaries. He currently has 664 pledged delegates compared to Sanders’ 573. A nominee needs a majority, or 1,991, delegates going into the convention to win the nomination on the first ballot.

Michigan offers the greatest prize on Tuesday with 125 delegates up for grabs. A Detriot Free Press survey released on Monday showed Biden with a 24-point advantage over Vermont’s self-described socialist senator in the Great Lakes State.

Sanders held rallies in Michigan over the weekend in hopes of garnering support in the state he won in 2016, when he edged out Hillary Clinton by less than two percentage points — 49.8 percent to Clinton’s 48.3 percent.

Make or break for Bernie if he can't compete against Biden at this point. Should be some interesting results with anger from at least one side being inevitable. I'm looking forward to seeing the race in Idaho and Washington.

Something just dawned on me, Biden has been having debates where he spoke for approximately 10-15 minutes... I'm really looking forward to how he handles 20-30 minutes on camera now that it'll just be him and Sanders.
According to Politico, not only will the debate not have an audience, due to Coronavirus fears, it also wont be an actually debate, and more like a town hall, apparently.
Bernie Sanders wants to stand up at the next debate — and his campaign is accusing Joe Biden of wanting to sit down.
The format for the next debate in Arizona — their first since Biden’s blowout Super Tuesday victories — would have the candidates seated for the first time this election cycle and take multiple questions from the audience.
(weird how that's going to work now with no audience)
"We want to have an exchange of ideas next week in Phoenix. We look forward to taking voter questions in a town hall-style setting,” said Bedingfield. "It is odd to see a campaign that says it is based on revolution arguing for the status quo because ‘this is how every other debate has been done.’ Why is Sen. Sanders opposed to a little change?”

Its funny how they don't want Biden going toe to toe with Bernie.
 
America is simply not ready for a 'tarded president with dementia. The DNC is exceptional enough to try though, so keep going Joe! You mumbling, stuttering buffoon.
This is the angle to get the progressive wing on board with Biden. "Don't call it 'dementia,' he's just our first neurodiverse candidate!"
 
The only state I can see Bernie winning tonight is Washington and maybe Idaho if voter turnout is high enough.

Michigan is a tossup and Biden will probably get the remaining states.

Na
Put a fork in Bernie, he’s done
Nawww, all he has to do is sweep all the remaining delegates. He can do it as long as he stays positive and continues to publicly praise Fidel.

Bernie taking it home, DNC must of really leveraged him to keep Biden out of another debate.

Calling it now, Biden dies in the next month and Hillary gets all his delegates.
He's going to achieve "Friend of Clinton" status?
