The vast majority of all voters are just now tuning in. We will now see how several of the lessor known candidates start to fare.

3. This poll precedes the NH results

Polling started last Sunday and ended on Tuesday, before Biden finished in fifth place in NH in single digits and before the Bloomberg tape defending Stop and Frisk was released. They both almost certainly will be taking a hit, Biden especially. It's possible that Pete and Amy will get a bump up, but they are starting at 2%. Meanwhile Warren ended up in single digits in NH also.

What the media consistently underplays and what so many here choose ti ignore is that support for Sanders is rising among People of Color. He already is in second in this poll and he just won the NH primary, with Biden virtually falling off the map.

7. I don't dispute that

And it is relevant and fair to note that this one signifies a lesser exodus of Black support from Biden than did the Quinnipiac Poll. Just like it is fair and relevant to point out that, unlike the Quinnipiac Poll, this one has Sanders in second place among Black voters not Bloomberg. But I still feel it is important to observe that this poll was taken before the NH results were known. In light of that fact, I think the chances approach nil that support for Biden is still holding up now at whatever level it was before he finished 5th in single digits in NH

Just checked RCP. Nothing. There hasn't been a Nevada poll in a month. The one 538 is spreading around isn't a new poll. It's an adjusted average. Nate took the average and adjusted it according to voices in his head. Biden +2% last poll. Bernie +5.1% now. Nate thinks everyone is for Bernie now because Iowa. BTW..he's between a Liberal and a Libertarian. Likes Peggy Noonan. So who knows what he's thinking.
