A new CNN poll puts Harris at just 5%, down 12 percentage points from the liberal network’s last survey in June. Meanwhile, Biden — whose numbers fell after his first shaky debate performance — now stands at 29%, up 7 points from CNN’s previous poll.
That puts Biden 14 percentage points above Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont at 15%. Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts came in at 14%. South Bend, Ind., Mayor Pete Buttigieg was tied with Harris at 5%, according to the latest poll.
