Theres constant arguing about who is and is not electable in the Democratic Presidential field. But the reality right now is that Trump polls pretty much the same no matter which Democrat you test against him, coming in at 40-42% support. Joe Biden with a 53-40 advantage over Trump does the best. Beyond that the rest have pretty similar numbers. Bernie Sanders leads Trump 49-41, Kamala Harris and Cory Booker do 48-41, Elizabeth Warren does 48-42, Kirsten Gillibrand and Beto ORourke do 47-41, and Pete Buttigieg does 45-41. The relative strength of the Democrats seems to generally correspond with how prominent theyve been on the national scene over time.
Democrats also have a 51-40 lead on the generic Congressional ballot, consistent with their strong advantage on that metric throughout the 2018 election cycle.

(34,857 posts)Had Clinton won the popular vote by the margin Obama did in 2012, so, by two more points, she likely wins enough votes in PA, MI and WI to win the election. If these polls are accurate, and the Democratic candidate wins by 5+ points, there's no way they won't carry the EC.

We must work for our Dem candidates as if Trump is 12 points ahead.
