Yang 2% in South Carolina is insane. He hasn't even campaigned there yet as far as I know.

[President Johnson]

Oh yeeeeees, UNCLE JOE! This should be safe for him. Bad poll for Kamala.

[Gracile]

Not great for Harris, especially considering the effort she has put into winning South Carolina (which is likely her only path to the nomination).

[Xing]

Not a great poll for Sanders, but it's far worse for Harris. Sanders can afford to get second in SC (though he should come closer than this), but Harris absolutely can't get third, behind him. Anyway, it's early, so we'll see what happens.

[America Needs R'hllor]

Demographics would be interesting. I assume Biden and Harris get a lot of their numbers from black voters while Pete is in the teens with white liberals, but it'd be nice to see if there are surprises. Not that Change Research is worth much.

[Roronoa D. Law]

SC was always going to be Biden best state. It starting to look like Harris is becoming stagnant in SC. Right now her problem is that Biden is running away with black male voters and black women over 45. Booker chance at a SC surprise now looks nearly impossible, Abrams should've ran for Senate, and Beto is proving to be a boom and bust candidate.

[BlueSwan]

Yikes, that is a bit of a lead for Uncle Joe.

[Obama-Biden Democrat]

Yang 2% in South Carolina is insane. He hasn't even campaigned there yet as far as I know.

SC is ready for the #YANGBANG?

What happened to Beto? everybody was hyping him up like he was a white Obama not too long ago, and now he's literally tied with Andrew Yang in South Carolina.

Too many platitudes. I know I drifted away because he seemed too weak kneed when cornered on certain things that should have been slam dunks. For some reason Biden can get away with it because.... reasons.

[Rookie Yinzer]

Don't take this personal because I am speaking about the media but I’m so tired of hearing and seeing “Uncle Joe” used by people on prominent positions.  It is used to make him seem harmless and benign when he has the most toxic record of anybody running. He’s no uncle of mine.

The more I see him the more convinced I,m that he is a lightweight.

That's been the impression I've formed too.  Style, not substance.

For people of a certain age Uncle Joe refers to Joseph Stalin,  Hardly harmless and benign.

[Thunder98 🇮🇱 🤝 🇵🇸]

When will we see a national or state poll that has Biden above 50%?

[GeorgiaModerate]

When will we see a national or state poll that has Biden above 50%?

When the field gets a little smaller.

[Minnesota Mike]

When will we see a national or state poll that has Biden above 50%?

When does Delaware get polled?

FWIW Trump never broke 50%nationally  in the 2016 primary polls.

I like how people complained about Indiana being polled but not SC where the obvious result continues to be obvious.

[Co-Chair Bagel23]

Joe Joe Joe Joe!!!!

[Senator Incitatus]

When will we see a national or state poll that has Biden above 50%?

If and when he does well in the first debates.

[Sir Mohamed]

Impressive lead for Biden. I admit, if Harris does poor in SC, she hasn't a chance and should drop out, endorse Biden and hopefully get offered the VP slot. But, there is a lot of time left up to any ballots being cast and Biden can still implode. He is a gaffe machine.

LOL at Booker.

What "Uncle Joe" first makes me think of is the character played by Edgar Buchanan in the old TV show Petticoat Junction.  That's a much more benign image.
