POLITICO: [ [link removed] ]Poll: Warren fares better against Biden than Sanders
Warren allies seize on new survey to argue she’s the progressive candidate
most likely to defeat the former veep.

A new national poll commissioned by a progressive group reports that
Elizabeth Warren would perform better in a one-on-one primary with Joe
Biden than Bernie Sanders.

As Sanders surges in the polls days before the Iowa caucuses, an
organization allied with the Massachusetts senator is seizing on it as
evidence that she is the best-equipped progressive to take on the former
vice president.

The online survey testing hypothetical match-ups by Data for Progress,
which was conducted by YouGov Blue, showed that 47 percent of likely
Democratic voters said they would support Biden if a national race were
held today, while 45 percent said they would back Warren, according to the
poll. If the primary were between Sanders and Biden, 53 percent said they
would vote for Biden and 41 percent would get behind Sanders.

"The data shows voters pretty clearly that if you don't want Joe Biden as
the nominee, the best chance we have to prevent that is this contest
boiling down to Warren and Biden," said Adam Green, co-founder of the
Warren-aligned Progressive Change Campaign Committee. "She can unite and
energize the party and is the best foot forward for progressives to get
past Biden and Trump."

In the closing weeks of the campaign, Warren has sought to position
herself as a unity candidate who can bring together the moderate and
liberal wings of the Democratic Party....

The question of how to best defeat Biden has been a source of anxiety
among left-wing activists, with some worrying that Sanders and Warren
could split the vote and hand the nomination to him. Other progressives
have argued that Sanders and Warren should both stay in the primary and
potentially combine delegates to beat Biden.

The Data for Progress poll showed that if it were three-way race, 42
percent said they would vote for Biden, 30 percent would back Warren, and
23 percent would support Sanders. The rest of the Democratic field was not
tested.

The Sanders campaign did not provide comment for the story.

The Data for Progress poll sampled 1,619 registered voters online from
January 18 to 26, and the margin of error is plus or minus 2.6 percentage
points. Data for Progress, a progressive think tank, has worked with
Warren and Sanders’ teams.
