New poll finds tight four-way race in Iowa

(CNN)Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren, South Bend, Indiana Mayor Pete Buttgieg, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, and former Vice President Joe Biden make up a top tier in the race for the Democratic nomination in Iowa, according to a new poll from Quinnipiac University.

Warren receives 20% support among likely Democratic caucusgoers, followed by 19% for Buttigieg, 17% for Sanders and 15% for Biden.

(snip)

The results mark the fourth qualifying poll for the November DNC debate at 3% or higher for Gabbard, meaning she will qualify for the debate stage. The poll also means Klobuchar has met the polling criteria for the December debate. She is the sixth candidate to meet those higher standards.

(snip)

Only 46% of likely Democratic caucusgoers who chose a candidate in the poll say their mind is made up, including 48% of Biden supporters, 44% who back Warren, and 40% for Buttigieg. Sanders' supporters are more apt to be locked in to their choice -- 61% say their mind is made up.

Also, on the 2nd and 3rd most important qualities for a leader, Sanders is way up!
Electability at #1 still goes to Joe - but that's slipping, so ... should be interesting to see if the trends hold. Sanders up 5! Biden and Warren down.
