West\nLong Branch, NJ<\/em> \u2013 Former Vice President Joe Biden maintains\nhis front-runner status among Democratic voters nationwide, but some female\ncandidates \u2013 namely Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren, California Sen. Kamala\nHarris, and Minnesota Sen. Amy Klobuchar \u2013 have seen some small but notable\nupticks in their favorability ratings over the past month. The latest Monmouth\nUniversity Poll<\/em><\/strong> also finds a drop in support for Vermont Sen. Bernie\nSanders and a decline in the net rating for former Texas Rep. Beto O\u2019Rourke.\nOverall, the poll provides yet another reminder that name recognition continues\nto drive party preferences at this early stage of the race, with many\nDemocratic voters saying they remain unfamiliar with the majority of the two\ndozen candidates in the field.  The race\nwould actually look tighter if there was more focus on the voters who live in\nstates with early primary contests with more influence determining the party\u2019s\nnominee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Among a field of 24 contenders, Biden currently has the support of 33% of Democrats and Democratic-leaning voters. This marks a small increase since he entered the race, from 27% in April and 28% in March. The rest of the field is tightly grouped below the clear front-runner position. Sanders has the support of 15% of Democratic-identifiers, which represents a decline over the past few months from 25% in March and 20% in April. Harris has 11% support, similar to 8% in April and 10% in March. Warren stands at 10%, compared to 6% in April and 8% in March.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other candidates receiving support in\nthe poll include South Bend, Indiana Mayor Pete Buttigieg at 6% (8% in April\nand less than 1% in March), O\u2019Rourke at 4% (4% in April and 6% in March), and\nKlobuchar at 3% (1% in April and 3% in March). \nCandidates who receive 1% support include New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker,\nformer cabinet secretary Juli\u00e1n Castro, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio,\nHawaii Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, entrepreneur Andrew Yang, and author Marianne\nWilliamson \u2013 which is the first time she has hit the 1% mark in a Monmouth\npoll.  The remaining 11 candidates\nincluded in the poll receive less than 1% or were not selected by any\nrespondents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe are still nine months away from\nthe first votes being cast. In past cycles, we used to focus mainly on the insider\ngame of courting big donors at this stage. That \u2018invisible primary\u2019 has now\nmorphed into a very visible pre-primary focused on national media attention at\nthe expense of putting down firmer roots in the early voting states,\u201d said Patrick Murray,\ndirector of the independent Monmouth University Polling Institute.Less than half of the Democratic voters in the poll live in one of the states that will cast ballots in the 2020 nomination process by Super Tuesday. Among these early state voters, Biden maintains his lead, but by a much slimmer margin \u2013 26% support compared to 14% for Sanders and 14% for Harris. Warren follows at 9% with Buttigieg at 6% and Klobuchar at 5%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe\u2019d probably be seeing a different media narrative if we really focused on voters who will actually have an opportunity to shape the field,\u201d said Murray.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another finding in the poll is a\nrecent shift toward voters backing female candidates. The six women in the\nfield receive a combined 27% support from Democratic voters. This is a jump\nfrom the 16% support they received in April and higher than 21% support in\nMarch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWomen are commanding a larger slice\nof Democratic support than they were a few weeks ago and we are seeing bumps in\ntheir individual voter ratings. We can\u2019t parse out the exact reasons from this\none poll, but recent efforts by certain states to restrict access to abortion\nservices may be playing a role in the closer look these candidates are getting\nright now,\u201d said Murray.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A key metric at this point in the\n2020 cycle is candidate favorability. The poll finds small but notable shifts\nfor three female contenders since last month. \nWarren is known to 88% of Democratic voters, which is consistent with\nprior polls. However, she currently receives a +46 net rating of 60% favorable\nto 14% unfavorable, which is up significantly from her +32 rating in April (51%\nto 19%).  Warren\u2019s gains have come\ndisproportionately from Democratic men (59%-15% in May compared with 46%-25% in\nApril) and non-white voters (53%-12% in May compared with 37%-20% in April).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Harris is known to 82% of Democratic\nvoters, which is consistent with prior polls. She currently receives a +49 net\nrating of 58% favorable to 9% unfavorable, which is up somewhat from her +40\nrating in April (50% to 10%).  Harris\u2019\ngains have come disproportionately from non-liberals (51%-11% in May compared\nwith 39%-14% in April) and Democrats without a college degree (53%-10% in May\ncompared with 42%-12% in April).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Klobuchar is known to 70% of\nDemocratic voters, which is consistent with polls since her entry into the\ncampaign, although a sizable number (28%) feel they still don\u2019t know enough to\ngive her a rating. However, she currently receives a +22 net rating of 32%\nfavorable to 10% unfavorable, which is up somewhat from her +14 rating in April\n(27% to 13%).  Klobuchar\u2019s gains have\ncome disproportionately from non-white voters (25%-5% in May compared with\n15%-10% in April) and college graduates (40%-11% in May compared with 32%-15%\nin April).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The field\u2019s leader, Biden, maintains\nhis near universal name recognition (98%) and a virtually unchanged +57 net\nrating of 74% favorable to 17% unfavorable. It was 72%-16% last month. Sanders,\nknown to 98% of Democratic voters, holds onto a +44 net rating of 65% favorable\nto 21% unfavorable, which is identical to his 65%-21% rating in April.  Buttigieg, with 70% name identification, has\na +24 net rating of 35% favorable to 11% unfavorable, which is similar to last\nmonth\u2019s 35%-6% rating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

O\u2019Rourke, who is known to 79% of Democrats, has seen his net rating slip over the past month to +21 \u2013 40% favorable to 19% unfavorable. It was a nominally better 43% to 12% in April. The decline in O\u2019Rourke\u2019s rating has come disproportionately from women (41%-18% in May compared with 45%-9% in April) and Democrats under 50 years old (33%-20% in May compared with 45%-13% in April).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOne thing we need to remember is\nthat huge pockets of Democratic voters, particularly moderates, have yet to\ntune in to the campaign. While liberal activists are more aware of the entire\nfield, moderates tend to gravitate toward Biden in part because his is the one\nname they know they are aligned with. \nOther candidates could emerge in early states to pull some of his\nsupport or this early national media primary could snuff out their chances well\nbefore the first vote is cast,\u201d said Murray.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Among other contenders, de Blasio,\nwho is the most recent candidate to throw his hat into the ring, enters the\nrace with 78% name recognition, but he also has the worst net rating of the 24\ncandidates Monmouth is tracking with a negative -9 net rating of 20% favorable\nto 29% unfavorable.  Three other\ncandidates who are known to at least two-thirds of Democratic voters maintain\nstable positive ratings which are little changed from prior polls. They are\nBooker at +28 (41%-13%), Castro at +18 (28%-10%), and New York Sen. Kirsten\nGillibrand at +11 (28%-17%).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A majority of Democratic voters say they recognize the names of another 9 candidates in the field, but few are able to offer an opinion of them. Those receiving the best net ratings, relatively speaking, include former Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper (19% favorable to 8% unfavorable), Colorado Sen. Michael Bennet (18%-7%), California Rep. Eric Swalwell (18%-7%), Washington Gov. Jay Inslee (18%-9%), and Gabbard (22%-15%).  Ratings are evenly divided for former Maryland Rep. John Delaney (13%-12%), Ohio Rep. Tim Ryan (15%-15%), Montana Gov. Steve Bullock (11%-11%), and Yang (12%-13%).  Less-known candidates include Massachusetts Rep. Seth Moulton (11%-9%) and Williamson (10%-10%) as well as the negatively rated former Alaska Sen. Mike Gravel (5%-10%) and Miramar, Florida Mayor Wayne Messam (3%-9%).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHey, the field is too big. You\nwonder if some candidates are getting negative ratings simply as a result of\nvoters questioning whether they really should be running,\u201d said Murray.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The poll also asked registered Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents about their party\u2019s nomination process.  In considering who should be their party\u2019s standard bearer, a majority of 58% prefer someone who would be a strong candidate against Trump even if they disagree with that candidate on most issues.  Just 34% say they would prefer a nominee who they are aligned with on the issues even if that person would have a hard time beating Trump.  This result is unchanged from the 56% to 33% response this question received in January.  Among those who prioritize electability, 36% support Biden in the \u201chorse race,\u201d followed by Sanders (14%), Harris (14%), and Warren (10%).  Among those who stick with issue alignment, 26% back Biden and 18% support Sanders, followed by Warren (9%), Buttigieg (8%), Harris (7%), and O\u2019Rourke (7%).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just under half of Democratic voters (44%) say that nominating someone who will build on former President Barack Obama\u2019s legacy is very important to them and another 31% say it is somewhat important. Just 18% say this is not important and 7% are unsure.  Among those who say Obama\u2019s legacy is very important in the choice of nominee, 44% currently support Biden while 15% support Sanders and 9% back Harris, followed by Warren (6%) and Buttigieg (4%). Among those who do not feel Obama\u2019s legacy is very important in the 2020 process, 25% support Biden, followed by 15% for Sanders, 13% for Warren, 12% for Harris, and 8% for Buttigieg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Monmouth University Poll<\/em>\nwas conducted by telephone from May 16 to 20, 2019 with 802 adults. Results in this release are based on 334\nregistered voters who identify as Democrats or lean toward the Democratic Party\nin the United States, which has a +\/- 5.4 percentage point sampling\nmargin of error.  The poll was conducted by the Monmouth University\nPolling Institute in West Long Branch, NJ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

METHODOLOGY<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Monmouth\nUniversity Poll<\/em> was sponsored and conducted by the Monmouth University\nPolling Institute from May 16 to 20, 2019 with a national random sample of 802\nadults age 18 and older, in English. This includes 322 contacted by a live\ninterviewer on a landline telephone and 480 contacted by a live interviewer on\na cell phone. The results in this poll\nrelease are based on a subsample of 334 registered voters who identify themselves as Democrats or lean\ntoward the Democratic Party. Telephone numbers were selected through\nrandom digit dialing and landline respondents were selected with a modified\nTroldahl-Carter youngest adult household screen. Monmouth is responsible for\nall aspects of the survey design, data weighting and analysis. Final sample is\nweighted for region, age, education, gender and race based on US Census\ninformation. Data collection support provided by Braun Research (field)\nand Dynata (RDD sample). For results based on the Democratic voter sample,\none can say with 95% confidence that the error attributable to sampling has a\nmaximum margin of plus or minus 5.4 percentage points (unadjusted for sample\ndesign). Sampling error can be larger for sub-groups (see table\nbelow). In addition to sampling error, one should bear in mind that\nquestion wording and practical difficulties in conducting surveys can introduce\nerror or bias into the findings of opinion polls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
