Mahalo, Skya!

3. Beto and Harris

Both these individuals have to be two of the biggest disappointments Ive seen in a long, long time. I would support both due to thier youth and brass but just shocked at thier inability to catch on.

4. Nearly 58% of the participants had a college degree according to question 41.

Those demographics don't seem consistent with the overall population of voters. I don't have a lot of faith in this poll.

6. Suffolk is an A rated poll

10. no, it is not

9. Well...

I can't find national exit polling data but looking at state data from 2016:

In the Iowa Caucus, 50% of Democratic voters had a college degree.

In New Hampshire, it was 60% of Democratic voters who had a college degree.

In Florida, it was 48%.

In Illinois, it was 53%.

In Massachusetts it was 67%.

In Alabama, it was 51%.

So, I'd wager while maybe a tad high - it's not terribly so when you average out the whole country.

12. It's a great deal more than the educational attainment of the general population:

Educational attainment in the United States (2018)

Education Age 25 and over Age 25-29
High school diploma or GED 89.80% 92.95%
Some college 61.28% 66.34%
Associate and/or bachelor's degree 45.16% 46.72%
Bachelor's degree 34.98% 36.98%
Master's and/or doctorate and/or professional degree 13.04% 9.01%
Doctorate and/or professional degree 3.47% 2.02%
Doctorate 2.03% 1.12%

Less than half of the population has an associates degree.

The Suffolk poll randomly selected a group of well-educated respondents.

15. That's irrelevant when you're doing a poll for a primary race.

You'd want the demographics to align more with past elections than just the nation overall so it's an accurate representation of things.

13. Democrats are generally more educated than the greater population...

[TexasTowelie]

14. True,

but the sample in this survey includes independents and Republicans also. I was looking at some the other responses on the survey and it seems like there is a conservative bias that isn't consistent with other polls.

5. Our party's nominee will be EITHER, Biden or Warren. It will not be...

Our party's nominee will be EITHER, Biden or Warren. It will not be BS. He's just too far behind. He doesn't have the support (obviously) and those who do support him aren't diverse enough to be able to win him any states beyond Vermont, or New Hampshire (and similar).

Biden isn't my first choice, but between the two likely nominees, I hope it's him. I'll happily support Warren or any other Democrat who wins as well.

7. Thx for posting Skya... another poll that shows an upward trajectory for Biden

Go Joe go... we’ve got your back!!

[emmaverybo]

8. Keep on keeping on, Joe. Proud to support you. You are simply the best.

11. the numbers in this poll are TERRIFYING...........

and I'm not talking about the Dem candidate stuff.

drumpf has the highest favorable and lowest unfavorable rating of any of the things they asked about (besides Pence)

That's despite there being 5% more dems in the poll than rethugs.

Drumpf is leading the Dem nominee about 2.4% and 9.8% are saying third party!!!!!!!!!!!

46% approve of drumpf's job performance.........

i hope this poll isn't accurate because these numbers are BAD for us.
