5 Key Poll Numbers That Illustrate the Bernie Sanders Surge
Here's the data that show exactly
In case you missed it, here are five key sets of polling data that illustrate the Bernie Surge — and the working-class coalition that is fueling it:
1. POLL — BERNIE IS TIED FOR FIRST: Since July, Bernie has gained 7 points in Emerson’s national poll, and is now tied for first in the most recent survey.
2. POLLS — BERNIE BACK IN SECOND IN RCP POLLING AVERAGE: Since October, Bernie has gained 5 points in the Real Clear Politics Polling Average — the single largest gain of any candidate in the race. That surge has put Bernie firmly in second place in the race.
3. POLLS — VOTERS MOST TRUST BERNIE ON HEALTH CARE: In the last few months, polls from Reuters, Kaiser and CNN have shown that voters see Bernie as the candidate who is most trusted on the health care issue.
4. POLL — AMERICANS DON’T WANT HEALTH CARE HALF MEASURES: The number of Americans who are uninsured continues to rise, and Joe Biden is pushing a health care plan that would leave 10 million uninsured. Now, a new Data for Progress poll finds 68 percent of voters do not it is acceptable for any health care plan to leave millions of Americans uninsured. You know what won’t leave millions of Americans uninsured? Bernie’s Medicare for All plan.
5. POLL — BERNIE’S COMMANDING LEAD AMONG YOUNG PEOPLE: The latest Chegg/College Pulse poll shows Bernie with a big lead among college students. That tracks with other polls showing Bernie leading among younger voters. In particular, Bernie not only leads among all college students, he is the only candidate with substantially more support from college students receiving financial aid — a reflection of his working-class coalition.

I like Bernie, but you are so obviously a troll that I will vote Buttigieg just to spite you.

R4 Sure:
Look at the op. I’m sure you’ll respond with “next” to those too.

Well, since the OP is making a big deal out of an outlier poll...yes, I will.
Next?

R6 It’s ‘polls,’ dear. Op cited multiple polls that you seem to be claiming are outlier pollS which, I might add, have come out back to back.
No, not a surge but OUTLIARZZZ!
Right.

No, Sweetie. It's one poll. as #1 above notes. This one poll brings Bernie up to #2 in the field, which is first loser.
#3 and 4 are on one issue. Unfortunately for you, people do not vote on just one issue.
And #5 is immaterial as the young do not vote.
So, no surge.
Next?

R10 Are you trying to detract from Biden and Buttigieg’s support with such fervor, too?
Ya know, since they’re all tied...

Once they start spamming the site with thread after thread, I will.

R12 So, Bernie is #1 nationally along with Biden (latest Emerson Poll), is #1 in a three way tie with Biden and Buttigieg in Iowa, is #1 with college students, has reached and surpassed 4 million contributions - the most of any candidate at this point in an election in history - and sits pretty at #2 in the Real Clear Politics poll...
And, and...

Again:
Bernie is tied with Biden in one and only one poll and that poll does not agree with any other polling.
Bernie being in a threeway tie in Iowa...a state recently polled to show Pete way ahead...means very little, if anything in the big picture.
Neither does support among people who won't vote, like college students.
Contributions don't equal votes.
And #2 overall is still first loser.
So...

Bernie's demographic are the most unreliable when it comes to showing up to vote. The old timers roll up like clockwork. Bernie's numbers are meaningless.

Bernie is a loser. He would be decimated in the general election. It would be worse than Reagan vs. Mondale.

Moderately interesting although completely irrelevant point if you watch the video, not to mention that women that are Bern Bros are simply more extreme versions of the men...

Bernie and his wife are grifters. He's not running to win.

Bernie will win and will connect his movement with Corbyn’s and true Progressives will finally govern the world!
