Biden Tops Texas Democratic Poll, Warren Second

Joe Biden still tops the Democratic primary field in Texas with Elizabeth Warren surging into second place on the eve of the party’s third candidate debate in that state, according to a new Quinnipiac University poll.

Biden is supported by 28% of Democratic voters and independent voters who lean Democratic,
with Warren following with 18%
and both Bernie Sanders and former U.S. Representative Beto O’Rourke falling to 12%.

When asked who has the best shot at winning over President Donald Trump in 2020, former Vice President Biden dominates with 50% with Senators Warren and Sanders following with 10% each, according to the poll.

Ten candidates will face off in the third Democratic debate on Sept. 12 in Houston. It’ll be the first time Joe Biden and Elizabeth Warren share a debate stage.

Biden would get 139 of those delegates, Warren would get 89, everyone else would get zero.
