The upcoming 2020 Democratic presidential is Sen. Bernie Sanders' to lose, according to a new election poll.
Sanders has a huge lead over rivals Sen. Elizabeth Warren and former Vice President Joe Biden, both of whom are eyeing a bid.
The dark horse appears to be Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg.
Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe, a media and Clinton favorite, is dead last with just 1 percent supporting his candidacy in the Zogby Analytics survey of likely Democratic primary voters provided exclusively to Secrets.
Sanders, who was edged out by Hillary Rodham Clinton in 2016, is her heir apparent. Some 28 percent back Sanders, nearly twice that of Biden at 17 percent and nearly three times Warren's 12 percent.
"Democratic primary voters are still excited about the prospect of Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders winning the nomination," said the survey analysis, provided to Secrets.
Sanders wins most groups, said Zogby. "Among the democratic base, which consists of women voters, younger voters, voters living in large cities and many minority voters; Sanders performs well among all of these groups. Among women, Sanders beat Warren with a ratio of more than 3 to 1 and Biden almost 2 to 1. When it came to younger Millennial voters age 18-29, Sanders (42 percent) dominates. He beats Warren (22 percent) nearly 2 to 1 and Joe Biden (12 percent) 3 to 1."

In addition to Sanders, there are rumors that Joe Biden and Jerry Brown are thinking of running for President in 2020. Talk about a geriatric cohort: all of the above will be at or pushing 80 by the 2020 election. Too bad that they won’t have a 104 year old Robert Byrd to run as well.
“Frankenstein meets Weinerholder” : )
I’m thinking the leftists will run a celebrity like clooney of winfrey.
Zuckerberg is a dark horse’s ass.
Have humans stopped aging? I missed that.
I remember when Bush was a frontrunner...
Which Bush and what election?
I would be worried most about McAulluff. On paper he’s a heavyweight. None of the leftie voters know who he is. Good that he’s not doing well but that could change.
[I remember when Bush was a frontrunner...]
Yup. If Trump hadn’t entered the race, Jeb! would have been the nominee, and we would now be living in a socialism hell under Pres. Hillary.
Agree. Obama with a skirt. She ticks every box on the liberal left's list.
Like that matters one whit to Democrats.
Or Republicans.
Haley, Rubio, Cruz, George P. Bush and Jindal are not eligible either.
McAwful belongs in prison.
Do not underestimate him, he is a snake.
