BERNIE SANDERS WINS IDCCA’S ONLINE STRAW POLL

Vermont Senator captures over 27% of 7,100 respondents

SPRINGFIELD, Illinois – In mid-April, the Illinois Democratic County Chairs’ Association released an online poll asking Democrats who they prefer as the Party’s 2020 nominee. And, with more than 1,700 votes (27 percent), Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders showed the strongest popularity among 7,100 respondents. While not a scientific survey, the straw poll is the largest collection of 2020 presidential opinions among Illinois Democrats to date.

Senator Sanders built a passionate support network in 2016 and, since then, many of those advocates have engaged with county party organizations, helping to elect a wave of Illinois Democrats in 2018. The IDCCA continues to welcome the partnership of enthusiastic supporters whether be from the Sanders camp or any other movement of change-makers.”
