Poll: Warren and Biden running neck and neck as Sanders sinks

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) and former Vice President Joe Biden are running neck and neck with a large lead over the rest of the Democratic primary field, according to a national poll released Monday.

Warren was the first choice of 27 percent of Democrats and Democrat-leaning independents surveyed by Investor's Business Daily and TIPP, 1 percentage point ahead of Biden.

The Massachusetts lawmaker gained 3 points from the same survey in September, while Biden dropped from 28 percent to 26 percent support.

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) was the third most-popular choice of respondents, at 10 percent support in the new poll, a 2 point drop from last month.

South Bend, Ind., Mayor Pete Buttigieg (D) gained 2 points from September to now register at 7 percent support.
No other Democratic candidate cleared 3 percent support.

IBD/TIPP surveyed 341 Democrats and independents who lean Democratic between Sept. 26 and Oct. 3 via landline and mobile phone.

Warren is a great candidate, and is looking like she could take it all at this point. Tiggeroshii Oct 2019 #3
She seems to have ten times as much energy than either of them put together. cwydro Oct 2019 #7
She's incredible. Tiggeroshii Oct 2019 #9

19% is unaccounted for in this poll - so this is not as accurate of an indication as to the state of Skya Rhen Oct 2019 #4

He has worked so hard and is still plugging along after a heart attack. I wish him well and good health. But, this time around, I can't vote for him.

Compared to the other two top candidates, Warren is basically a child as far as age goes.

I like her a lot. I still have a couple others I like, but I think she’s a damn strong candidate.

I don't know that I believe that.

I think he could easily retain up to 15 percent of the hardcore Bernie supporters.

The hardcore is much smaller than 15. He’s already at about 15 in the polling average, and any affect of the heart attack hasn’t been factored in yet. I’d say the hardcore is closer to 5 percent, it just seems like more since they’re so loud on social media..

that's not exactly saying much...10 percent is fairly fringe.
