On this day in 2016, Hillary led Bernie by an average of 11% - today, Biden leads by 19%. [View all]

And his lead continues to grow.

Bernie seems to be under the impression that 2020 is similar to 2016. It's not. Biden is dominating in ways Hillary couldn't head-to-head vs Sanders.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
