The field of candidates vying for the Democratic Presidential nomination has whittled down from a high of 25 in the beginning to three after the Super Tuesday primaries.  

After Tuesday’s primaries in which he won 10 of 14 states, former Vice President Joe Biden is riding momentum and has the most delegates for the nomination.

Will Pennsylvania have a say in who the nominee is this year? The state’s late primary on April 28 is after most states have voted or caucused but Biden and his main rival Sen. Bernie Sanders might still be fighting for delegates by then.

Joining us on Friday’s Smart Talk to discuss the primary results and the road to the nomination is Dr. Fletcher McClellan, professor of Political Science at Elizabethtown College.
