CNN: Bernie Sanders is the new #1 in our 2020 Democrat rankings
Updated 4:54 PM ET, Wed April 24, 2019
Excerpt:
Sanders has climbed to the top of the mountain: He is, as of today, the leader of the Democratic 2020 pack, according to our updated power rankings.
Why? Well, lots of reasons. But here are a few:
That national organization built over the last four years and assiduously maintained by Sanders and his political allies is more robust than anything any other candidates in the race -- including Joe Biden, who's set to announce Thursday -- have at the moment.
Sanders is likely to raise the most money of anyone in the field. He brought in north of $18 million in the first three months of 2018, with 84% of those contributions coming in at under $200. That was the biggest total of any 2020 Democrat. And there's every reason to think he can keep it up; he raised $237 million for his 2016 race against Clinton.
His path to the nomination is the easiest to see, with Iowa's caucuses dominated by liberals and his geographic proximity to New Hampshire.
Sanders' liberalism -- once considered radical -- is now very much en vogue within the party. And he's been in that space for a very long time.
Our rankings, however, are aimed at capturing a moment in time. Who, if the primary fight began today, would be best positioned to win? And the answer to that question is the senator from Vermont.
