It appears that Bernie Sanders has got a bounce from his attacks against the other Democrats in the new CNN poll….
The race IS now between Sanders and Biden it would appear…
We’ll see if this is supported with other polls….
Update….See below…..
(CNN) Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders has improved his standing in the national Democratic race for president, joining former Vice President Joe Biden in a two-person top tier above the rest of the field, according to a new CNN poll conducted by SSRS.
The poll marks the first time Biden has not held a solo lead in CNN’s national polling on the race.
Update….
Some interpreting things going on right now in the polling….
Bernie Sanders definitely has a bounce from his attacks …But Joe Biden still probably has a small lead nationally….
But?
One should farther….
Mike Bloomberg IS the person we might want to watch…
He has slowly jumped ahead of Pete Buttigieg in recent polling…
Bloomberg isn’t in all the early primaries like Biden and Sanders and the others….
But he IS climbing in the polling….
Hmmmm?

So we DO have Biden still ahead in two other polls out today….
Not by much…
Bernie is defiantly riding a bounce…
Bloomberg is the person to watch also…..

A new Monmouth poll finds Joe Biden leading the Democratic presidential race nationally with 30%, followed by Bernie Sanders at 23%, Elizabeth Warren at 14%, Mike Bloomberg at 9%, Pete Buttigieg at 6%, Amy Klobuchar at 5% and Andrew Yang at 3%.
None of the other five candidates running tops 1%.
Said pollster Patrick Murray: “With the exception of Bloomberg’s entry, this race looks pretty much like it did six months ago. But that stability masks the potential for sizable swings once the first contests are held. Iowa and New Hampshire will play a major role in shaping national voter preferences.”

Bernie Sanders is NOT LEADING in the national polls….
The CNN polling features above is an outlier…

Sanders leads in NH in a new small poll (426 person)….
The new WBUR poll is the latest. It finds Sanders is the choice of 29% of likely Democratic primary voters. That’s well ahead of Buttigieg, who led in the last WBUR poll in December but is now in second place with 17%. Biden (14%) and Warren (13%) are virtually tied in third place….
