Political wunderkind Pete Buttigieg rocketed into second place in the Democratic presidential nomination race, polling showed Tuesday, with support for progressive ex-frontrunner Elizabeth Warren sliding as voters sour on her universal health care proposal.

Buttigieg, the moderate millennial mayor of South Bend, Indiana, leapfrogged the race's main liberal candidates, Warren and fellow senator Bernie Sanders, to claim second behind the resilient national leader Joe Biden, according to Quinnipiac University's latest poll.

Former vice president Biden leads with 24 percent among Democratic voters and independents who lean Democratic, a rise of three percentage points and a reclaiming of pole position since Quinnipiac's last poll on October 24, when he trailed Warren.

Buttigieg jumped from 10 percent to 16 percent in that timeframe, while Warren's support was halved, from 28 to 14 percent, and Sanders slid three points to 13 percent.

1. New CNN Poll

Biden 28%.. Bernie 17% ... Warren 15% ... Buttigieg 11%... Bloomberg, Steyer , Harris, Yang 3%...Mayor Pete is at around 11% , not the 16% credited to him by the outlier poll , Quinnipiac ..

2. "the outlier poll , Quinnipiac"

Polls that portray their candidate poorly are 'outliers'.

3. No , I studied the Quinnipiac sample

It was 60% Moderate to Conservative ……. Our primaries are 2- 1 liberal over mod/Con ….Look at the other National polls released in the last 48 hours : CNN Bernie at 17%, Survey USA Bernie at 17 %, Morning Consult Bernie at 21% ………...Quinnipiac credited Mayor Pete at 16% because there were too many Moderates in their sample ..I don't just pop off because I don't like the result of a particular poll

4. Can we please quit bickering about polling until the voting starts?

The general election polls are now showing Trump beating all our candidates by a comfortable margin.
