16. If you mean the candidates closest to Biden are basically tied, within the margin of error

in the MC poll, I agree. But Biden's lead puts him well outside the margin of error.

I thought you meant all four top candidates were within the margin of error.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden

Different Polls giving different results this early is a good thing according to 538. bluewater Jul 2019 #15
Which is still nearly double the support his closest rival has. highplainsdem Jul 2019 #19
Still way ahead of the pack. I hate those 20+ colored lines in the graph, for many.... George II Jul 2019 #2

Maybe we lean more left at DU--sure. But with 37% undecided, it is possible we'd end up more like MC hlthe2b Jul 2019 #5

Both Biden and Sanders beat Trump so don't worry about 'left' labels floppyboo Jul 2019 #28
The tag "socialist" will not stick on Joe. It will on several of the candidates redstateblues Jul 2019 #31
I envy your confidence. He can't support unions and win back the mid-west floppyboo Jul 2019 #32
I understand why you want other candidates to wear the millstone of "socialist" redstateblues Jul 2019 #34

Biden drops from 33% to 31% support in this poll, his lead also dropped 2%. bluewater Jul 2019 #12
And Harris is tied with Warren and Biden is the clear front-runner... Skya Rhen Jul 2019 #14
1% to 3% Shifts Can Easily Be Attributed to Statistical "Noise" and Not Any Real Change in Support. Indykatie Jul 2019 #20
yup, 2% is well within the margin of error. Joe is still leading by double digits! onetexan Jul 2019 #29
your Concern is noted. Cha Jul 2019 #24
