New poll finds Biden leading Dem pack despite accusations

Former Vice President Joe Biden leads the Democratic pack of contenders for the White House despite a week of accusations of improper touching and kissing from seven women, according to a new Hill-HarrisX poll released Monday.

Biden won 28 percent support in the survey, compared to 20 percent for Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.).

Biden, who has yet to formally enter the race, and Sanders were well ahead of the rest of the candidates in the poll of 660 registered voters who identified as Democrats or independents.



Former Rep. Beto O'Rourke (D-Texas) placed third with 8 percent support, while Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) won 7 percent.

Warren was followed by Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) with 6 percent and Sen. Cory Booker (D-N.J.) with 4 percent.

Pete Buttigieg, the Democratic mayor of South Bend, Ind., was named by 3 percent of respondents, while Sens. Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.) and Kirsten Gillibrand (D-N.Y.) each won 2 percent.

You mean despite The Hill trying to make a big deal of the accusations.

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