polling? i suspect they have. everything i know about michael bloomberg suggests and has historically suggested that they come prepared. they re not the type of people to jump in cold water without knowing that it was very cold. but when you look as a morning poll out that shows that michael unfavorables are the highest in the primary race. i think it s like 25% unfavorability rating. does their internal polling show the same thing? do they have that? do they think that number can change? good question. what we ve been told by the bloomberg camp, i guess, it s not really a campaign yet s that as the polling that he s been monitoring and paying for, doug shone is his pollster, shown over time democrats have seen trump as more and more of a danger and become more and more attracted to someone of bloomberg s profile. now, they haven t told us what those numbers are or exactly what the horse race numbers would be. not only is the morning consult
and tonight these numbers will offer critical clues about how these iowa voters are feeling 135 days out from those first in the nation caucuses. so let s get right to it. cnn s jessica dean is live in des moines where the candidates gathered there today. but we are beginning with cnn political director david and the new numbers everyone has been waiting for. david, lots to get at in this new poll. what does it tell us about where this race stands right now? reporter: it tells us, alex, that this race stands at an entirely new place right now. take a look at these top-line horse race numbers in iowa, the critical first contest. you see elizabeth warren has been surging in iowa. she s at 22% in this poll. joe biden has been fading a bit. he s at 20%. they are in a tier, a top tier to themselves. you see there bernie sanders at 11. pete buttigieg at 9%. harris at 6%. booker and klobuchar at 3% each.
have another, what, close to 400 days before there s a presidential election. there s a lot of qualified candidates running. my hope is i think you re going to seymour of it, we re going to talk about our plans and future, instead of making up things about someone s past. that was joe biding on the campaign trail. looking at the horse race numbers. they both moved up since june in this monmouth poll. for joe biden, a different story. they have him down 13 points. the biden campaign is pushing back hard. for more, let s turn to mike memoli. he s been on the trail with biden, too, for a good chunk of the super. take us through what they re saying, but there doesn t seem
iowa state fair, don t eat your way out of it. just trust me. you don t want to eat your way out of that fair. that s the only thing i remind you of. [ laughter ] stay safe at the fair. there s so much good stuff to eat. the pork chops are the best. and speaking of des moines as 2020 democrats hit the hawkeye state we do have a new poll that i told you about, and i will show you the horse race numbers right after this break. . (dramatic music) and you re saving money, because you bundled home and auto. sarah, get in the house. we re all here for you. all: all day, all night. (dramatic music) great job speaking calmly and clearly everyone. that s how you put a customer at ease. hey, did anyone else hear weird voices while they were in the corn? no. no. me either. whispering voice: jamie. what? so, every day, we put our latest technology and unrivaled network to work.
disinformation. and it was the internals, not just the horse race numbers, and that s just a vivid example of how there was cooperation between the trump campaign and the russians. and that s a pretty shocking thing. never before done in american history. a lot of what s going on now is the drama about the battle that is essentially between mueller and barr. mueller s job through the report was to get the information out. barr has defined his job as to conceal it. that s essentially what s going on. and these sideshow fights are essentially just the relentless effort on the part of the trump administration now, unfortunately, with the assistance of attorney general barr to conceal the facts through obfuscation. the one of the ongoing conditions of this investigation was something we ve never seen before, which is the president attacking the special investigation of the president. previous presidents had never gone into that kind of pure attack mode.
