Poll of Texas Democratic Voters: Clinton 53%, Sanders 21% and Biden 14%

Joe Biden would have his work cut out for him in Texas, should he decide to enter the race for the Democratic nomination for president, according to a new poll released Wednesday.

Just 14 percent of likely Texas Democratic voters favor the vice president, compared with 21 percent for Bernie Sanders and 53 percent for Hillary Clinton, according to a survey by Crosswind Media and Public Relations.

By comparison, Biden, who is still considering a bid, is the top choice for a quarter of registered Democrats nationally, with Clinton preferred by a third of Democrats, according to a Bloomberg Politics poll released Wednesday.

Nearly a half of Democrats in the Bloomberg poll said Biden should run. And Biden has a higher favorability rating than Clinton among men and women, according to the survey 0f 1,001 adults conducted Sept. 18-21.
