It’s the November rematch few Americans want — except the ones who keep voting for it.

Donald Trump and Joe Biden romped across the Super Tuesday map, easily wiping out their closest challengers and marching to the precipice of their respective nominations.

But while Tuesday’s elections served as a stark reminder of the grip both men have over their parties, they also offered the best glimpse yet of each candidates’ general election frailties — from Trump’s struggles with well-educated suburban voters to Biden’s protest votes over his policies in the Middle East in Democratic-leaning places like Minnesota.

Down the ballot, gamesmanship seemed to pay off for Adam Schiff as he coasted through the state’s top-two primary alongside a Republican who he is all but certain to beat. Elsewhere, hard-line Republicans advanced from key primaries, but potentially not without serious liabilities for some, like Mark Robinson, who easily won the North Carolina GOP gubernatorial primary.
