NYT: Sanders surges to lead in Iowa (+8 over Biden, 7 over Buttigieg) [View all] Tiggeroshii Jan 2020 OP

Same poll shows sanders losing to trump in the GE by 6 pts!! Thekaspervote Jan 2020 #1

In Iowa, not nationally. Trump won Iowa by 10 points last time. DanTex Jan 2020 #2

Oh great!! So your guy wins IA, but loses the GE? Thekaspervote Jan 2020 #4

That GE poll is just for the state of Iowa, not nationally. DanTex Jan 2020 #6

Does it show Biden beating Trump? zentrum Jan 2020 #5

I cannot see the link... here's the most telling poll of all Thekaspervote Jan 2020 #7

If you can't see the link melman Jan 2020 #13

The above post is not part of the NYT poll. Thekaspervote Jan 2020 #18

Early GE polls mean squat at this point. Tiggeroshii Jan 2020 #14

What means something is that Biden has a much wider appeal across demographic groups emmaverybo Jan 2020 #47

+1000, it's like people don't want to win. I can't imagine caring about any issue more than WINNING UniteFightBack Jan 2020 #48

Hogwash Tiggeroshii Jan 2020 #51

Agreed. zentrum Jan 2020 #79

No, but he's much closer to beating Trump than Sanders is. highplainsdem Jan 2020 #9

Early polls mean nothing right now. Tiggeroshii Jan 2020 #15

If early polls they mean nothing then why post them??!! Thekaspervote Jan 2020 #19

Because he posted this thread about a primary poll and you started squawking about a GE poll. Hassin Bin Sober Jan 2020 #31

It doesn't change the numbers!! The numbers are not there for sanders Thekaspervote Jan 2020 #50

The most qualified candidate ever lost Iowa by ten points. Hassin Bin Sober Jan 2020 #56

Which proves my point as well is others!! This is about IA!! Thekaspervote Jan 2020 #62

No, but he's much closer to beating Trump than Sanders is. highplainsdem Jan 2020 #10

No but it does show this BeyondGeography Jan 2020 #11

We've lost aplenty as moderates over the last couple decades. I say give it a shot. Tiggeroshii Jan 2020 #17

I say no...we don't give it a shot and keep the most dangerous president ever in power...Sander Demsrule86 Jan 2020 #23

I think it will be a tough race either way nt BeyondGeography Jan 2020 #29

yeah right! whistler162 Jan 2020 #8

RCP average now has Biden going into IA at +.7 Tiggeroshii Jan 2020 #12

Toast, eh? Vogon_Glory Jan 2020 #16

Burnt toast Tiggeroshii Jan 2020 #20

Bill Clinton lost both Iowa and New Hampshire...and won the election...Sanders has nowhere to go Demsrule86 Jan 2020 #24

Polling suggests AAs and POC support is more than the national support Tiggeroshii Jan 2020 #27

No...Sanders never had much AA support and he will have less after Rogan...This is why he is Demsrule86 Jan 2020 #37

Oh.. the demise of Joe's campaign rides again!! Thekaspervote Jan 2020 #22

More wishful thinking. The money guys are moving to Biden which means...they think he will be the Demsrule86 Jan 2020 #25

Hand stands!! Thekaspervote Jan 2020 #26

How certain of Joe's win are you, really? Tiggeroshii Jan 2020 #28

10... Demsrule86 Jan 2020 #35

Right there with ya!! Thekaspervote Jan 2020 #52

IA means little with the upcoming onslaught that sanders will face Thekaspervote Jan 2020 #21

I mean. This is no fun and pointless without a wager, frankly. Tiggeroshii Jan 2020 #30

that .7 lead includes a ridiculous +10 for Biden poll by a guy who moonlights to "stop socialism" Hassin Bin Sober Jan 2020 #45

Do you know the 538 rating on it? Tiggeroshii Jan 2020 #80

Non existent I think. Hassin Bin Sober Jan 2020 #81

Oh ok that puts Sanders up .5 on 538 Tiggeroshii Jan 2020 #82

Interesting that all of Bernie's gain, basically, came from Warren. DanTex Jan 2020 #32

You know what I think that is a really shitty thing to say...Sander's campaign put out GOTV Demsrule86 Jan 2020 #38

Yes, it was shitty of Warren to accuse Sanders of saying something he would obviously never say. DanTex Jan 2020 #41

You got that exactly backwards Thekaspervote Jan 2020 #55

I'm really surprised to see this in the face of all the personal attacks this week. Aaron Pereira Jan 2020 #33

The polls are not from this week...give them time... Demsrule86 Jan 2020 #36

And the more likely it becomes that Bernie has a real shot at actually winning the totodeinhere Jan 2020 #43

Exactly. Personal attacks and gratuitous hostility can't easily be smoothed over in six months. Aaron Pereira Jan 2020 #44

Damn straight... GO BERNIE!! The Boundless Bernie Bashing Backlash continues unabated!! InAbLuEsTaTe Jan 2020 #34

Bernie is kickin butt but I never put much faith in any poll, even those days before an election yaesu Jan 2020 #39

Where is he "kicking butt" please show me!! Thekaspervote Jan 2020 #54

A couple of screenshots which include this poll: George II Jan 2020 #40

Thx for posting So sanders and Biden are going to split the delegates, that's a given Thekaspervote Jan 2020 #58
