Joe Biden got some good news on Wednesday as two new polls were released showing him comfortably ahead in the 2020 Democratic race, confirming that a recently released Monmouth poll showing him collapsing and locked in a three-way tie had to be an outlier.
One of the Wednesday polls, by Quinnipiac, showed Biden at 32%, with a double-digit lead over his next closest competitor, Sen. Elizabeth Warren, who was at 19%. What’s more, the poll found him still commanding 46% among black voters, a crucial bloc in Democratic primaries. Biden also had very little competition among more moderate voters, where he garnered the support of 41% of the electorate, and still managed to lead among “somewhat” liberal voters. While Warren led among the “very liberal,” she faces more competition from Sanders among that group than Biden does in gaining the support of centrist Democrats.
