27. Actually, I think that Beto is climbing into the second tier

with Harris and Buttigieg and is within the MOE of being fourth overall. If people are uncomfortable that the top three in the first tier, then they may start looking at the rest of the line and Beto will be there waiting. I expect that Beto will gain some more traction after the third debate so I'm not counting him out yet.

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