Biden's surprise ray of hope in California.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Despite Joe Biden's weak polling in California, there’s a silver lining emerging for him in the biggest delegate prize on the board this week.

Biden’s weakness after a distant second finish in Nevada could have compelled Californians who have been voting since the Iowa caucuses to support a moderate alternative who was doing better at the time. But there's a big upside for Biden: A huge number of them haven't voted yet. The portion of returned ballots at this stage is much lower than in recent elections — and his campaign is counting on a late surge of support among those holdouts after his dominant performance on Saturday.
