IDK in general the debates seem to have helped the more prepared and substantive candidates, and have provided Dems with a hedge against candidates who dominated paid media or "earned" media. There's a good argument that Democrats should have had twice as many of them. — PolitiTweet.org

As an edge case, suppose Candidate A has 1740 delegates and B has 1739, both short of the majority threshold (1990). However, A faded and B won the last 14 nomination contests, won the popular vote & currently leads A by 30 points in head-to-head polls. Who should be nominated? — PolitiTweet.org
