"SNIP......
Warren, the U.S. senator from Massachusetts, now holds a 2-percentage-point lead, with 22% of likely Democratic caucusgoers saying she is their first choice for president. It is the first time she has led in the Registers poll.
Former Vice President Biden, who had led each of the Registers three previous 2020 cycle polls, follows her at 20%. Sanders, the U.S. senator from Vermont, has fallen to third place with 11%.
No other candidate reaches double digits.
.....
South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg follows the three leaders as the favorite of 9% of poll respondents. U.S. Sen. Kamala Harris of California is at 6%. U.S. Sens. Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota and Cory Booker of New Jersey are at 3%.

(118,844 posts)5. I white water canoed 70 miles of the Dumoine River in Quebec when i was 17.
I just assumed it was spelt the same. Moine means monk in french so a common word back in the day.

(115,900 posts)7. I think maybe there were more monks in Des Moines
than in the Dumoine River, since it's plural.

(118,844 posts)8. LOL! Don't know which Des Moines was named after:
"SNIP.....
Some believe that the current name (for the dumoine river) comes from Le Moynes, a fur-trading family in New France. Mr. Schaber and others say it translates to "river of the monk."
