If those supporters switch to their second choices, it would likely amount to 5- and 4-point increases in support for Sanders and Biden, respectively.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) dropped out of the Democratic race for president on Thursday, ending a promising campaign that ultimately failed to live up to the high expectations at its onset.

Her exit, on the heels of a poor showing in Super Tuesday contests, is expected to give an almost equal boost to Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) and former Vice President Joe Biden, according to recent Morning Consult polling tracking the race.

In responses from Democratic primary voters collected 3 p.m. Monday through Tuesday — before former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg dropped out of the race — 43 percent of Warren supporters said Sanders was their second choice, compared with 36 percent who said Biden. That would amount to an increase of 5 percentage points for Sanders’ first-choice support if her supporters move where they are inclined to go and a 4-point boost for Biden, clearing the field of their last major challenger.
