Biden leads Warren by +7 in first NBC/WSJ Poll

Former Vice President Joe Biden and Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., lead the Democratic presidential field, according to the national NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll’s opening measure of the 2020 horse race.

Biden...... 26%
Warren.... 19%
Harris...... 13%
Sanders... 13%
Buttigieg... 7%

Biden leads in the first NBC/WSJ poll with +7

My Disclaimer: This is an early poll. No single poll result should be over emphasized, especially this early.

Front runner Joe Biden's 26% is in line with his national average of polling of 27.1 %
-- is 26% Biden's floor?

Warren at 19% in this poll out performs her national average of 13.7 %
-- is warren on the move up?

Don’t get me wrong I love Elizabeth and I agree with most of her policies. I think she is tough enough take on Trump. However, I’m not sure she would get PA,WI and MI back..That is my main concern. If those are solidly blue then he can’t win.

That's where Warren can be stronger than HRC. We lose the right no matter what.

One issue that I had with Hillary's campaign is that it chose early on not to go heavily into some rust belt states and rural parts of purple states. Warren so far is going anywhere and everywhere. She is sitting before both adoring and hostile crowds in a back and forth discussion.

I'm looking forward to seeing her on the debate stage with Biden and one or two other serious contenders.

Here's an interesting video from Warren's website. Especially check out the very last bit, where Warren says: "That's what Bernie and I are fighting for. We're in this all the way. We need you in it too"
Why you would be suggesting that Warren has shown Bernie the door is suspect or uninformed.
