"SNIP....

South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg is seeing a surge in presidential poll numbers after this week's fourth Democratic debate, especially in Iowa.

He's been polling in the single digits, but a new Emerson poll shows Iowa voters put him at 16 percent, third behind only Joe Biden and Elizabeth Warren.

Doing well in Iowa is significant because it's one of the first states to vote, setting the tone for Democratic primaries.

The Buttigieg campaign has also seen a surge in fundraising. He's raised more money than Biden -- including more than a million dollars in the 24 hours following the debate.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:

I am not sure but I believe he has been running a lot of TV ads in Iowa ...The surge is for real..... In terms of Q3 fundraising , he came in 2nd in total number of campaign contributions from Iowans ..He also has the advantage of being a fresh face on the campaign trail ….He is going to be a real contender in Iowa ..He shouldn't go negative ... Remain optimistic , idealistic , sunny disposition ….That's his ticket to Victory in Iowa …..
