Related: About this forumPolitical Wire Straw Poll Results
https://politicalwire.com/2019/05/16/political-wire-straw-poll-results-5/This poll was only open to Political Wire members.
Our May straw poll finds 77% of Political Wire members think that Joe Biden will win the Democratic nomination for president in 2020, followed Kamala Harris at 11%, Elizabeth Warren at 4% and Pete Buttigieg at 3%.
However, when it comes to personal preferences for who Political Wire members want to win, the race is much closer. Biden still leads with 24%, but hes followed very closely by Harris at 22%, Buttigieg at 20% and Warren at 19%.
I know this only represents the views of Political Wire subscribers and not voters at large but it made me feel better.

OP
Up until 2016 asking voters who they thought would win was the best way of predicting the winner
