Joe Biden Wins Florida, Illinois and Arizona's Democratic Primaries

Tuesday's continue to be presidential candidate Joe Biden's day of celebration as he swept the three primaries and defeated U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders.  His margin of victory in Florida was 61-22%, in Illinois 59-36% and in Arizona 43-31% with most of the vote counted.  And Biden's support continues to be broad based and overwhelming in favor of his candidacy.

This writer believes it is time for Sanders to withdraw and allow Joe Biden the opportunity to prepare for the general election in November.  The coronavirus is a hard ship on the campaign and the chance that several future primaries maybe cancelled changes the dynamics and is not the normal presidential campaign environment.

The American people  have already spoken as to who they would like to see oppose Trump in the general election in this writers opinion and a continuation of the primaries would not favor Sanders chances.  Stepping aside now would allow Biden more time to devote to the general election, putting his team together and develop the message of what he plans to do if elected President.
