if CNN makes any reference to it or others. From what I've seen for quite some time (and it bothers me quite a bit) is that no other polls exist to CNN other than their own. MSNBC at least acknowledges and discusses other polls from time to time. I don't watch enough Fox News to have any idea.

Regarding MSNBC/CNN, it's striking how negative both networks are on Biden. Other than a few of the conservative pundits (like the Never Trumpers), only Joe and Mika are remotely positive on Joe. I'm really straining to think of someone on CNN. Only one I can really think of is Michael Smerconish, but he's really a conservative-leaning talk radio guy that just has a Saturday morning TV show there. I haven't seen much Don Lemon in the last several weeks, but I caught him a week or two ago defending Biden over some of the criticism he was getting. Though he could have just been playing devil's advocate. But really, I'm just really disappointed how many of the anchors/hosts (day and night) are seemingly dragging Biden all the time.

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