Poll Has Warren Tied with Biden
YouGov has both at 26 percent, Sanders at 16 (Hot Air). An ABC News/Washington Post poll has Biden at 27 percent,


Sanders at 19 and Warren at 17 (ABC News). One poll has Sanders leading in New Hampshire (Boston Herald). Meanwhile, Harris is having an obvious problem with honesty (National Review). The top candidates debate tonight (ABC News). From Daniel Henninger: There is an air of weirdness around the party's candidates. One explanation for how it got so crazy is that after Hillary Clinton 's loss in 2016, many Democrats concluded that the realities of presidential campaigning had shifted, that the only way one can command the attention of the media and electorate is to act "like Trump." Which is to say, be anything but normal. Lucky us (WSJ).
