Congratulations to our presumptive Democratic nominee, Joe Biden!
New CNN NH poll, ELECTABILITY question: Biden 45%, Sanders 16%, Warren 9%, Harris 7%,
O'Rourke 2%, Buttigieg 1%
Info from this PDF about the poll:
http://cdn.cnn.com/cnn/2019/images/07/16/rel1_nh_.2020.pdf
The question was
Which Democratic candidate do you think has the best chance of winning in the general election next November?
And Biden has no real competition there. with Sanders nearly 30 points behind, and Warren and Harris nearly 40 points behind, and all others more than 40 points behind.

(5,376 posts)5. Hmmm. But he's only preferred by 24% to be the Nominee....
So people don't think that so-called "electability" matters that much?
Most Electable: Biden 45%
Preferred Candidate: Biden 24%
That's a 21% difference right there.
Very Interesting.
People must feel that other candidates can also beat Trump for these numbers to make any sense.
