Joe Biden Opens Up A Stunning 32-Point Lead Over Bernie Sanders

Emily Zanotti

Former Vice President Joe Biden was expected to lose support as polls normalized the week after he announced his intention to compete for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination, but so far, that hasn’t happened. In fact, according to a poll released Tuesday, Biden has opened a near-40 point lead on the next highest competitor, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT).

The Hill, which conducted the poll, reveals that Sanders has taken a precipitous drop since Biden entered the race, and the pair are now a wide margin apart, with Biden commanding 46% of the vote to Sanders’ 14%.
