Socialists may be all the rage, but new poll says Democrats still want Joe Biden above all contenders

A new Monmouth poll is out Monday, and it looks like good news for Republicans. The poll is all about Democrats, but it looks like as the party moves farther and farther to the Left, most Democrats would prefer Joe Biden to take Donald Trump behind the school gym, and if not Biden, Bernie Sanders.

Biden wins in all categories except voters under 50, who still like Bernie Sanders. “Undecided” is putting up a strong showing as well, beating out about everyone except Kamala Harris.

There are literally a couple of names on here we don’t even recognize, and we’re guessing we won’t have to learn them.

Biden 29%
