This is a who’s who of top Democrats. So who won?
With the 2018 midterms in the rearview mirror, several Democrats are gearing up for the 2020 presidential contest. But so far, no Democrat has attracted broad support from the party’s base, according to a new Hill.TV American Barometer poll.
Ouch.
The poll, which surveyed 680 registered voters between Nov. 5-6, and has a margin of error of plus or minus 3.7 percentage points, asked respondents to answer the question, “Who is your preference to become the Democratic nominee in the 2020 election for President?”
Respondents were then provided with a list of potential candidates. It included: Warren, Biden, Sanders, Booker, Harris, Bloomberg, Clinton, and “None of the above.”
“None” came in first place with 30 percent of the vote. Biden came in second at 25 percent. Sanders came in third with 18 percent of the vote. Clinton, who quite literally just ran for president, managed somehow to come in fourth place with 12 percent.
Warren and Harris both came in at just four percent. So much for those viral anti-Kavanaugh moments. Bloomberg performed just as poorly, which is actually not that bad considering he has kept a lower profile. Booker did the worst of them all, clocking in at just three percent. Well done, Spartacus.
Of course, the list did not include some other rising stars on the Left, like Texas senatorial Democrat Beto O’Rourke, who just lost his election bid to Republican incumbent Ted Cruz; and attorney Michael Avenatti, who is having to pay back nearly $5 million as the result of a recent lawsuit.
