In the states that a new Yahoo News/YouGov poll ran?
Joe Biden IS stronger than Bernie Sanders…
THAT IS what worries establishment Democrats…
And why Trump and Republicans ARE smiling every time a poll comes out showing Bernie Sanders ahead of Joe Biden somewhere….
Trump has instinctually known this since he got the Whiten House job ….
Trump has tried to politically kneecap Joe Biden by going after his son ‘s Ukraine business connections/actions…
A new Yahoo News/YouGov poll suggests that Bernie Sanders could be a riskier nominee than his supporters are willing to admit. In a national trial heat with President Trump, Sanders led 48% to 42% among registered voters. Yet when the playing field was narrowed to the 10 states that were closest in the 2016 presidential election and that will likely decide 2020 — Michigan, New Hampshire, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Florida, Minnesota, Nevada, Maine, North Carolina and Arizona — Sanders’s lead over Trump was slashed in half (48% to 45%). That 3-point gap was within the margin of error.
In contrast, Joe Biden led Trump by 9 points nationally (50% to 41%) and by 7 points (50% to 43%) in the battleground states.
Both Elizabeth Warren (47% to 45%) and Pete Buttigieg (46% to 44%) performed about as well as Sanders in the battleground states. The weakest performer was Michael Bloomberg (43% to 43%)….
