Head to Head Dem Primary Match-up Poll (YouGov/Youtube)

The date here says Feb.14, so forgive me if its been posted. I haven't seen it, but I'm not prolific here.
I found it interesting, mainly as a foil to the fictional conglomerate centrist candidate. On the other hand, it doesn't look likely there will be only 2 candidates going into the convention, so take what you like from it.
Including the not sure (NS), because that is also interesting.

Biden 44 Sanders 48 NS 8 - Sanders +4
Waren 42 Sanders 44 NS 14 -Sanders +2
Bloomberg 38 Sanders 53 NS 10 -Sanders +15
Buttigieg 37 Sanders 54 NS 10 -Sanders +17
Klobuchar 33 Sanders 54 NS 13 - Sanders +21

The poll goes on to do a head to head of Bloomberg Vs. other Dems - he loses to all

The article then goes on to say Sanders can never win because of the socialist label. Oh well. It can't be all roses.

2. Also, couldn't find sample size on the page or methodology. It is what it is.

Just found it broadly interesting, given the MSM insistence on adding all the centrist against the progressives, which has its merits.

Warren ends up faring well against all but Bernie.

But What I found very interesting for the next two races is that Klobuchar does well against Biden, Buttigieg and Bloomberg. That is where these next battles are being fought.

5. Wednesday's debate should be good for Warren. She couldn't ask for a better foil than Bloomberg.

And good for Amy too. I hope she brings up blow-job giving computers putting women out of work.
