Joe Biden leads the 2020 Democratic presidential field in Iowa, according to a new poll that also suggests Pete Buttigieg is gaining significant traction with likely caucus-goers
Former Vice President Joe Biden leads the 2020 Democratic presidential field in Iowa, according to a new poll released Thursday that also suggests Pete Buttigieg — a previously unknown, small-city mayor from Indiana — is gaining significant traction with likely caucus-goers.shows Biden, who hasn’t officially entered the race, is the first choice of roughly a quarter of likely caucusgoers, 27 percent. He’s followed by Sen.
Buttigieg still lags most of the other major candidates in name recognition, the poll shows. Nearly a quarter of caucusgoers, 24 percent, say they haven’t heard of the mayor of the nation’s 301st-largest city, compared to 3 percent who haven’t heard of Warren, 7 percent who haven’t heard of O’Rourke, 10 percent for Harris and 11 percent for Booker.

Biden, meanwhile, is running ahead of the pack despite a spate of news stories about physical contact with women who say the former vice president made them uncomfortable. But more than three-in-four caucus-goers, 78 percent, have a favorable opinion about Biden. Just 14 percent view him unfavorably.
