Not much more than a name recognition survey.




The Most Popular 2020 Democratic Prospect Not Named Joe Biden. Morning Consult, 6/17/2017)
The June 8-June 12 survey asked registered Democratic voters if they had favorable or unfavorable view of 19 Democratic politicians who are viewed as possible contenders to challenge President Donald Trump in 2020 if he runs for re-election.
