Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders has improved his standing in the national Democratic race for president, joining former Vice President Joe Biden in a two-person top tier above the rest of the field, according to a new CNN poll conducted by SSRS.
The poll marks the first time Biden has not held a solo lead in CNNs national polling on the race.
Overall, 27% of registered voters who are Democrats or Democratic-leaning independents back Sanders, while 24% favor Biden. The margin between the two is within the polls margin of sampling error, meaning there is no clear leader in this poll. Both, however, are significantly ahead of the rest of the field, including Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren at 14% and former South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg at 11%. Former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg lands at 5% in the poll, while Minnesota Sen. Amy Klobuchar and businessman Andrew Yang each hold 4% support. Businessman Tom Steyer has 2%. No other candidate reaches 1% support.
That could be bad news for Biden, but it is a CNN poll not the best.
We have a couple of old white guys, one who had a heart attack and is a communist, and the other whose mind is going and is a socialist, competing for number one because the others are that bad. JOE SAYS NO DEPORTATION OF DRUNK DRIVERS
Joe Biden and his family are surrounded by allegations of corruption and he cant make sense on the campaign trail. There is no way he should be anywhere near a presidential campaign, much less the star of one.
Biden is also moving far-left on all issues. He will do whatever the far-left wants. He was always far-left but now hes way off the charts on open borders he will invite illegals in with free healthcare, and he is extreme on climate change, guns, you name it.
Joe Biden would order ICE to not deport illegals for drunk driving. All the people who lost loved ones due to drunk drivers and drunk drivers who are here illegally might disagree.
It is a serious crime to get behind a wheel inebriated or hopped up on drugs knowing you could hurt or kill someone else.
He wants to fire them whatever the Hay that means.
You only arrest for the purpose of a felony that is committed, and I dont count drunk driving as a felony, Biden said.
We dont have enough drunk drivers of our own?
JOE CANT PUT A SENTENCE TOGETHER
The President has it right when he says Joe cant put a sentence together.
Hes still stumbling. Democrats like Joe dont know what to do about murderers so they want to take guns from lawful gun owners. But, ole Joe doesntknow what hes talking about.
C’mon Crazy Bernie!
I wanna SEE this! Trump will mop the floor with him!
nov is a long way off-
THIS is why Hillary took a pot shot at him the other day.
2020 might be the Socialist vs. the Capitalist. I wonder which one people will vote for? Too bad we can’t import some Venezuelans.
My question is, should Bernie win the nomination (and I know Hitlery and the Mooch are working against that), who will be his VP choice? Princess Gray Beaver?
"Oh Bernie, you're such a scream!"
My neighbor is from Venezuela.................
Bernies gonna get himself a ski lodge this time.
A businessman who will scold you about drinking soda,
or a Sanders Clause who will forgive your student loans?
Not gonna be a hard choice for Millenials.
I’m thinking The Bern will probably loose NH, NV, along with possibly CO and NM.
No chance in AZ, IA, PA, MI
Bloomberg has already spent about a hundred million dollars for 5%! Doesn’t seem to be a very savvy investor!
The new delegate proportional award system was specifically designed to stop a Bernie from getting the nomination. It is going to be fun to watch the Bernie Bots explode when they finally realize it.
Bloomberg must be taking away from ‘lunch bucket’ Joe
the worse news is that bernie is doing it while he’s splitting the whacko vote with warren.
They should smear Bernie with these:
Never backed down from his Communist loving stand (to criticize Stalin, for instance). Vacationed in Moscow for honeymoon. Who does that?
His campaign workers on Veritas video said they wouldn’t hesitate to execute the enemies of their socialist revolution if Bernie failed. Not joking.
Dumb, impressionable people think “Gee, I’d like totally free health care. I hate my Obamacare deductibles and co-pays. Let the rich pay for my care.” “I heard Denmark and Sweden aren’t so bad at all.”
We MUST get the advertising word out on what a change from Constitutional Republic to Socialist or Communist country means. Venezuela.
Sanders win is a Dem nightmare - go Bernie!
I’m a little panicked too, that about half the voters think Sanders, Biden, Warren, etc., are acceptable candidates, or preferable to Trump.
That so many people my age think socialism is cool, and white people are guilty, and babies are disposable.
“My neighbor is from Venezuela.................”
But is he on our side?
