A new poll just out of Democratic voters in New Hampshire has socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) leading the field of 2020 candidates on the Left in this first-to-vote primary state.
Sanders has the support of 29 percent of likely Democratic primary voters in the Granite State, according to a Franklin Pierce University/Boston Herald Poll released Wednesday and as noted by Fox News.
Former Vice President Joe Biden, who has been the frontrunner in most national and early-state polls, stands at 21 percent in this poll.
Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) registered at 17 percent in the poll.
Bernie Sanders is 78 years old.
This is his second try at a presidential candidacy.
“Former Vice President Joe Biden’s lead has evaporated in New Hampshire, with U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders pulling ahead in what has clearly become a three-person Democratic primary race, a new Franklin Pierce University-Boston Herald poll reveals,” as BostonHerald.com reported.
