Poll: Elizabeth Warren Overtakes Joe Biden in Minnesota
Breitbart, Jun 17, 2019

A poll of Minnesota Democrat presidential primary voters released over the weekend shows that Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) has overtaken former Vice President Joe Biden as the frontrunner in Minnesota, a major development that highlights both Warren’s national surge and Biden’s weakening lead ahead of the first debates.

Warren, at 21 percent, leads Biden’s 20 percent in the Change Research survey, conducted June 8 to June 12. Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) comes in third with 19 percent, while home state Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) is in fourth at 16 percent. South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg is next with 11 percent, followed by Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) at 4 percent, former Rep. Robert Francis “Beto” O’Rourke (D-TX) at 3 percent, Andrew Yang at 2 percent, and Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ), Washington Gov. Jay Inslee, and former Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Secretary Julian Castro all at 1 percent:

“Warren has the ability to unify the progressive wing of the Democratic Party, especially if she locks arms with AOC in attacking Biden’s more cautious and conventional politics,” they wrote, adding, “Even if she tops out, her politics are much closer to Bernie Sanders or Kamala Harris, so she could help lift another candidate over Biden with her endorsement and support.”

In the report, Allen and VandeHei quote sources close to Biden as saying they “are worried about her rise, and feel they caught a break in not having to face her in the first debate.”

1. In the grand scheme of things, Minnesota is buried in a pile of other states on Super Tuesday, so its primary in and of itself is not that important.
2. Amy Klobuchar is still polling not far behind the three-way split of Biden, Warren and Sanders... likely due to name recognition. If she bombs elsewhere she may be out of the race by the time it gets to her home state, which will likely be her best chance. If that happens, that's a huge chunk that could go elsewhere.
