The article raises the idea that Sheppard and Barnhart would split the anti-Warren vote. Consider also that Sheppard and Warren could split the black vote, benefiting Barhart, or that Barnhart and Warren get into a cat fight and split the female vote, benefitting Sheppard. All of this seems possible.
