from Bernie supporters.

If I were to vote in a presidential

21% of Buttigieg supporters rank Sanders as their second choice. Higher than any other candidate. Gravitycollapse Mar 2020 #4
That will change when he endorses Biden. n/t rzemanfl Mar 2020 #6
Probably. But by how much? Gravitycollapse Mar 2020 #11
His supporters were center-left Democrats NCProgressive Mar 2020 #16

It's higher than any other candidate. So should everyone else be embarrassed too? Gravitycollapse Mar 2020 #12
Higher within the margin of error... tarheelsunc Mar 2020 #15
Inevitable? quakerboy Mar 2020 #27
I doubt it is that high, and even it it is, up to 79% will go elsewhere. Celerity Mar 2020 #8
That's one poll. There are others. squirecam Mar 2020 #9
Still tied with Biden. Which is significant. It might not impact the race as much as thought. Gravitycollapse Mar 2020 #10
And Sanders is far down in the third poll. squirecam Mar 2020 #18
It's over for Bernie NCProgressive Mar 2020 #19
