New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio shrugged off not registering on the recent CNN/Des Moines Register poll, saying the poll is of “600 Iowans” and “this is just the beginning of a very long process.”

A poll from CNN and the Des Moines Register released Saturday showed Joe Biden in the lead with Sens. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) and Mayor Pete Buttigieg nearly tied for second in the polls.

De Blasio and Miramar, Florida Mayor Wayne Messam were the only two candidates in the field of 23 candidates to not be listed as either a first or second choice for president by one of the respondents.

“I’ll tell you something, Iowans have consistently surprised the pundits and come out many, many times with a choice that was not expected,” de Blasio contended.

“Ana, it’s a poll of 600 Iowans, eight months before the caucuses. This is just the beginning of a very long process,” he said.
