Four new national polls show HRC support expanding since debate

A new Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll finds Hillary Clinton leading the Democratic primary field with 49%, followed by Bernie Sanders 1t 29% and Joe Biden at 15%.

“Mrs. Clinton was the only Democratic candidate whose standing improved significantly in the post-debate poll. Support for Mr. Sanders dropped 6 percentage points, from 35% in September, on a ballot that included Mr. Biden, and it fell by about the same amount without Mr. Biden in the race.”

A new Washington Post-ABC News poll finds Clinton leading with 54%, followed by Sanders at 23% and Biden at 16%.

A new Morning Consult poll shows Clinton leading with 56%, followed by Sanders at 24%.

A new Reuters/Ipsos poll shows Clinton’s support jumping 10 points since the debate.

I'm not surprised at these results at all. And yes, I understand that the poll includes people who did not watch the debate. That always happens, and is based on media reports about the debate, including clips from the debate broadcast on network news.

If Joe Biden enters the race, he'll jump a few points, but won't take over first place in polling. What will happen is that Bernie Sanders will slip into third place in national polling. That's not a good position for him, going forward.
