The results of our latest 2020 Presidential Pulse Poll are in, John, and so are the headlines:

New Poll Puts Sanders, Warren, Harris In Lead Ahead Of Democratic DebatesEssence

That’s right, John, the top three Democratic contenders -- and the only three with double-digit support from DFA members -- are now Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, and Kamala Harris.

Energy and support for Joe Biden, Pete Buttigieg, and Beto O’Rourke had a clear drop from our second poll to this one, as progressive women Warren and Harris made massive gains following their impressive performance in the first Democratic debates last month.

And for the very first time, we didn’t just ask you to tell us your top choice for president: we asked what issue mattered most to you in this race too.

Two issues were neck-and-neck, but ultimately Green New Deal came out on top as DFA members’ top policy priority, with Medicare for All right behind:

While the 2020 race continues to evolve and has changed drastically from poll to poll, one thing is clear: support is building for three progressive candidates committed to bold, inclusive populism and structural reform, and the people want to see transformative action on climate change through the passing of the Green New Deal.

While a lot will change between today and the first contests next year, after seeing these results, there is no doubt that in 2020, Democrats are better positioned to nominate an unapologetic champion for progressive values for President than we’ve been in decades. And we want to be ready to go all-in to support that candidate when they ultimately go up against Trump.

With that in mind, will you make a contribution of $5 or more today to help DFA have the resources to rally behind a Democratic candidate, take on Trump, and WIN in 2020?
