I agree with you on Pete Buttigieg for sure. I mean if you look at the demographic breakdown of his supporters, you'll find that, in some crucial respects, they have more in common with Joe Biden's supporters than those of anyone else. Namely, they're predominantly self-described moderate voters who are over the age of 45. There's only other major candidate with that sort an age skew in terms of support, and that other candidate just happens to be losing some ground at the same time that Mayor Pete is ascending. Hard to write that off as coincidence.
I think there's also been some competition for younger voters between Warren and Sanders going on for sure, although Sanders is clearly winning that battle overall and Warren isn't so dependent on a single generation. I wouldn't say that the last month has been good to Warren in the polling average though. She needs another debate. On the fortunate side for her though, another one is now less than a week away.
