Emerson published its first democratic primary poll and 2 things stand out
1. The NKTB are fairing well; surprisingly “vanity candidate” has 11%, followed by Beto and Kamala at 8 and 7 respectively.
2. Warren should be worried, she can’t blame name recognition in the state she represents and was re-elected. She is not connecting with her own progressive voters, or Bernie just has more traction. She needs to do something about this.
Biden and Bernie lead the pack, seems all the hoopla over all of biden’s Sins in the past 150 years have not affected him much in this NE liberal state.
Now Bernie is only capturing 46% of those who voted for him in 2016, I be Ke I’ve that bleed comes from the NKTB. Not from Biden.
Bernie is favored by younger voters, Biden by older. The first group Beto is second, second group Pete is second. Very interesting dynamic to be honest. Not the top liners. But the new wa e candidates. Never thought the older voters would go Biden then Pete.
This poll continues a trend we have seen over the last month with Mayor Pete becoming increasingly relevant in the Democratic primary with 11% of the vote, just 3 points behind Senator Warren. This finding is similar to the results of the Emerson poll conducted a few weeks earlier in Iowa, but higher than the latest polls in Nevada and Pennsylvania, where Mayor Pete had 5% and 6% of the vote.”
Of course Trump is in the tank here and even generic dem crushes him in one to one matchups.
