SurveyUSA GEORGIA poll: Biden leads Dem field by about 20 points, would beat Trump by 4 points

http://www.surveyusa.com/client/PollReport.aspx?g=128c319e-4d47-4e41-827c-c67900e8414b&c=26


In Georgia, 18 Weeks till Primary, Biden Dominates Warren and Sanders; Other Democratic Candidates Far Back:

On the eve of a Democratic candidate debate in Atlanta 11/20/19, former Vice President Joe Biden leads his nearest challenger 2:1 in the state of Georgia, according to brand new SurveyUSA primary-election poll research conducted exclusively for WXIA-TV in Atlanta.

At this hour, as Democrats gather at Tyler Perry Studios, the contest in Georgia stands:

* Joe Biden, 39%.
* Bernie Sanders, 18%.
* Elizabeth Warren, 14%.
* Pete Buttigieg, 7%.
* Kamala Harris, 7%.
* Some other declared Democrat, 6%.

If Michael Bloomberg also appeared on a Georgia Democratic Primary ballot today, the outcome shifts ever-so-slightly:
* Joe Biden, 36% (down 3 points).
* Bernie Sanders, 17% (down 1 point).
* Elizabeth Warren, 14% (unchanged).
* Pete Buttigieg, 7% (unchanged).
* Kamala Harris, 6% (down 1 point).
* Michael Bloomberg, 6%.
* Some other declared Democrat, 5% (down 1 point).

With 10 Democrats scheduled to appear on stage in Atlanta, Joe Biden alone gets 47% of Georgia's substantial African American vote. (With Bloomberg on the ballot, Biden gets 46% of the black vote.) Among voters age 50+, Biden gets 47% of the vote, 4 times as much as his nearest challenger, Warren, and 6 times as much as Sanders. Among the youngest Georgia likely Democratic primary voters, Sanders defeats Biden 2:1.

In Georgia, Biden leads his nearest challenger by 22 points among both Catholics and Protestants, and by 30 points among those who practice another religion. Only among those who identify with no organized religion does Sanders tie Biden, 27% each. Biden leads by 23 points or more in every region of the state. He leads by 16 points in urban Georgia, 19 points in suburban parts of the state, and by 30 points in rural GA. Among suburban men, Biden leads Sanders by 27 points. Among suburban women, Biden leads Sanders by 10 points. Biden leads by 14 points or more among voters of every income level.

Trump Neck-and-Neck with Leading Democratic Challengers in Georgia 50 Weeks to Election Day:

Red-State Georgia is very much "in play," 50 weeks till the votes are counted in the general election for President 11/03/20.

At this hour, with impeachment hearings in the US House of Representatives against Donald J. Trump underway, and with new candidates still being added to the already crowded Democratic field, the contest for Georgia's 16 electoral votes, in hypothetical pairings, stands this way:

* Joe Biden edges Trump, 47% to 43%.
* Bernie Sanders edges Trump, 47% to 44%, on the edge of the survey's error margin.
* Elizabeth Warren edges Trump by a statistically insignificant 1 percentage point, 46% to 45%.
* Trump edges Pete Buttigieg, 45% to 41%.
* Trump edges Kamala Harris, 46% to 43%, on the edge of the survey's error margin.
* Trump edges Michael Bloomberg by a statistically insignificant 2 percentage points, 44% to 42%.

is the only one who can get the Black turnout we need. This is not just Georgia but the whole country. I love Mayor Pete, Warren and Sanders. They will not carry the Black and Independent voters we need. People trust Joe. I am for Biden/ Harris ticket.

Given the choice between the racist asshole who currently occupies the White House and ANY of our candidates who have a legitimate shot at the nomination, I truly believe that minority voters will be more than enthusiastic to vote.

If Biden picked either Castro or O'Rourke it may get him another 1%-2% of the vote which could be enough to flip Texas blue. I doubt that any of the other candidates could flip Texas blue, regardless of their choice of running mate.

No polling outfit is perfect but they don't get the credit they deserve …...Amongst Hispanics : Bernie 47% Biden 38% Warren 6% ... Their sample nearly matches what actually took place in the 2016 Dem Primary ..

primary today, I would vote for:
