Suffolk and Des Moines Register/Mediacom/CNN (the gold standard and taken well before the dates of the Suffolk poll) are two entirely different polls taken at two different times

the Des Moines Register poll was taken June 2 to June 5, almost a month before the Suffolk poll

We have to wait to see what the new Des Moines Register/Mediacom/CNN poll says. I guarantee Biden's lead and vote share drops.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
