30% in 2016 is equal to about 5% in 2020. He could be in second by 1% and he still wouldn't win. George II Jul 2019 #12

His support has been within 18-20% since the last week of April. While other polls have had ups and downs, Morning Consult has reported 19% week after week. It's online, maybe they select the same people each time

I talked with my wife this evening, and noted how many of the candidates were hawking the policy and issue positions Bernie was leading in 2016. I said “who would vote for one of those other candidates, when the real deal is on the ballot?

I only hope Bernie gets fair press coverage for the position he is in. He is second, but so far this cycle, the press is almost totally ignoring him.

I think we are going to have a three or four person race very early once primaries actually take place, and I’m hoping Bernie will be the choice of many.
