Excerpts from article:
..."It's plausible for Bloomberg because he has unlimited personal resources, but if Buttigieg can't get a checkmark next to his face for a state victory on Super Tuesday, then it's really, really difficult for him."
...Next week, Buttigieg is planning to make stops in Dallas and Austin, Texas, two of the state's biggest media markets, which also overlap with several suburban state Senate districts where Buttigieg could run up the score.
...One national Democratic strategist who has worked on presidential campaigns questioned why Buttigieg wasn't staking his claim on a handful of states that played to his demographic advantage, like Utah or Virginia, with higher concentrations of moderate-leaning or college-educated voters.
...In its memo, Buttigieg's campaign pledged to "Limit Sanders' delegate lead to no more than 350 pledged delegates." States on Super Tuesday account for about a third of the total delegates handed out in the Democratic presidential race.
..."How many districts are each candidate hitting threshold and by what margin? To me, that's the most important question on Super Tuesday," said Michael Halle, an adviser to the Buttigieg campaign.
