Biden Crushes Sanders In Democratic Race, Quinnipiac University National Poll Finds

In the wake of Super Tuesday and as the Democratic contest has narrowed to essentially a two-person race, 54 percent of Democrats and independents who lean Democratic say they would like to see former Vice President Joe Biden win the Democratic nomination for president, while 35 percent would like to see Senator Bernie Sanders win the nomination, according to a Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pea-ack) University national poll released today.

"It's down to two and looks very much like the Biden resurgence could be a fatal blow to the Sanders revolution," said Quinnipiac University Poll Analyst Tim Malloy.

Biden is viewed as more electable than Sanders. While 80 percent of Democrats and independents who lean Democratic say it is either very likely (36 percent) or somewhat likely (44 percent) that Biden would win against President Trump, 61 percent say it is either very likely (20 percent) or somewhat likely (41 percent) that Sanders would win against Trump.

Biden is also viewed more favorably than Sanders. While 77 percent of Democrats and Democratic leaners have a favorable opinion of Biden and 13 percent have an unfavorable opinion of him, 71 percent have a favorable view of Sanders and 17 percent have an unfavorable view of him.
