The latest survey found that nearly two in five Iowa Democratic caucus-goers said their minds hadn't been made up yet.

Pete Buttigieg, the former mayor of South Bend, Indiana, came in second place at 18 percent. Former Vice President Joe Biden, who leads the national polling average, came in third place at 17 percent, followed by Senator Elizabeth Warren at 15 percent.

There is a substantial imbalance in the gender-composition of Sanders supporters in Iowa, more uneven than for any other candidate. While 34 percent of male Democrats support him in Iowa, he is backed by just 17 percent of female Democrats in the state, the largest gender spread in the Iowa race. He is also the only Democratic candidate in Iowa to be preferred by men by more than five percentage points.

Warren could stand to benefit from siphoning off support from Sanders, for example. The poll found that she was the second choice for 44 percent of Sanders supporters in Iowa, the highest correlation between any two candidates in the race.

Bernie Sanders' use of Joe Rogan endorsement sparks debate: 'The campaign didn't need to amplify it'The Vermont senator's campaign used a video clip on Twitter of Joe Rogan endorsing the 2020 candidate. I’ll vote for him if he’s the nominee, but he’s not my first choice. Every time he gets bashed in the media, he goes up in the polls. Keep it up!! Y'all beeches are sour that Bernie got that MAJORLY important and influential nod from Rogan because y'all were thirsty for it to go to someone else. Don't play. When HRC was endorsed by Kissinger, a fukng genocidal war criminal you celebrated it. Spare us the pearl clutching.

Turns Out Lots of People “Like” Bernie SandersFor the first time, the Vermont Senator is on par with Joe Biden in a CNN poll. But it’s still early to call the primary a two-person race. I’m one! Nope. Not me. I loathe Bernie Sanders.
