basket of polls is showing for Biden’s support. I’d be skeptical that Warren’s support is double Bernie's At this point. But maybe it is. As Nate said, throw it in with the average and consider it in the overall context of the race’s current dynamic—which is that Biden is essentially holding firm while Warren continues to gain support and Bernie and Kamala are receding.

Want to highlight something in the poll that earned me some flak from Warren supporters over the weekend, though; Biden is the only candidate consistently outside Trump’s MoE. And that can’t all be name recognition. Warren and Sanders are plenty famous by now.

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