JUST IN: Support for Joe Biden's presidential bid rises 5 percentage points since April among Democrats and independents - Reuters/Ipsos poll by Cmkahn
NEW YORK - Former U.S. Vice President Joe Biden has expanded his lead over a wide field of candidates for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination by 5 percentage points since he entered the race in late April, according to a monthly Reuters/Ipsos poll.
Biden led the field among all major demographic groups except Millennials , who favored U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont over Biden 18% to 16%. And among registered Democrats, those who supported other candidates still listed Biden as a top alternative if their choice dropped out of the race, according to the poll.
With more than a month until the candidates square off in the first televised debates and 18 months before the 2020 presidential election, the American public appears to be selecting candidates they know best.
