1. Those are great numbers for Harris and Warren!

As the primary season continues and voters across the country get to know them both better, I am sure their favorable ratings will go even higher.

Thanks for the post Kaleva.

3. Maybe, maybe not.

Don't get me wrong, I like both, especially Warren, but once a candidate starts to separate themselves from the pack that's when the national media and rival campaigns start to critique them more. Biden and Sanders have taken some heavy criticism over the last several months, which likely caused their favorables to dip. Don't be surprised if the same happens to Warren and Harris if their current popularity is sustained.

7. I agree. Biden in particular has had to weather a barrage of attacks because he's the frontrunner.

11. Sorry, I thought you knew how an index works.

I should not assume that everyone here has had some years of primary education.

6. Very favorable plus somewhat favorable: Warren and Biden both at 68%, Sanders 65%,

Harris 64%

[Kaleva]

9. Warren appears to be in a strong position to take the lead

Her favorable ratings are high, unfavorably rating is low and she has a high percentage of Dems who are considering voting for her in the primaries.

The top three appear to be Warren, Biden and Harris followed not too far behind by Sanders.
