Interesting that Biden's leading Sanders by a large margin in the 35-49 age group (33% to 21%). I've seen Sanders supporters on Twitter tonight pushing the new Emerson poll for supposedly proving that Bernie leads with all age groups under 50. But that Emerson poll is more of an outlier, since it shows Biden only 8 points ahead of Sanders, and the internals having Sanders leading Biden among black voters (very much an outlier there).

We all know how well he is doing. There's truly no need to rub people's faces in it. It can turn some off to your candidate even though it's not your intention to do that.
And if course of he wins the nomination I will gladly support him.

Biden, Warren, Harris and Buttigieg would be one of the best primary contests the party has ever seen.

I want to get behind a candidate and beat the living shit out of Trump. Primaries are means to an end...beating your opponent in rhe general. Also, we would have more money for the Senate.

It's not just a means to winning in the general, though that sure is an important aspect. They are for the direction of the party. For a party leader. "Only one person can win" is a bad way to go about things. I think the four I mentioned about would be a great primary field and each one would campaign hard for the winner in the end.

Your poll has Joe at 39%. That means there are 61% of “The People” who prefer someone else.
Just sayin’.
