10. I doubt it

The turnout will be extremely low and you have a serious case to argue that it doesn't reflect the real voice of the people so you discard the result if it's not favorable to you.

Also, Bernie has been known to be consistent. His stance in 2016 and again in March 2020 are that until someone reaches the magic 1990 delegates or the last primary to be held, he will stay in. I would love to be proven wrong due to the pandemic but I highly doubt it. There were signs back in March that got my hopes up but he stayed in at the end. I will stop speculating his dropping out until he actually announce it.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
