Poll: Buttigieg tops Harris, O'Rourke as momentum builds

South Bend, Ind., Mayor Pete Buttigieg suprassed Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) and former Rep. Beto O'Rourke (D-Texas) in a national poll of likely Democratic voters released Tuesday.

Buttigieg placed third, behind former Vice President Joe Biden and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), with 9 percent of respondents picking him as their preferred Democratic presidential nominee, a two point bump from last week's Morning Consult survey.

Harris dropped one point to 8 percent, while O'Rourke dropped two points to 6 percent.

The Indiana Mayor recently placed closely behind Biden and Sanders, the current frontrunners, in polls of key early voting states Iowa and New Hampshire.

Let's see how he holds up to the inevitable smearing and the true vetting.

I think he may do well with both.

Will he be the nominee? Dunno. I support him now, and would support him for VP or a cabinet spot. He is definitely the future of our party.
