The campaign team for Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) was likely pleased with the latest CBS News surveys released Sunday, which have the Democratic presidential candidate moving to the front of the pack in Iowa and New Hampshire.In the poll, Sanders is locked in a dead heat in Iowa at 23 percent with former Vice President Joe Biden and former South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg, while the Vermont senator holds a two point lead over Biden in New Hampshire.Part of the reason Sanders has risen to the top is because of enthusiasm — in Iowa, 67 percent of Sanders' voters feel good about their choice, compared to just 49 percent who are going with Biden for now. But the former vice president still has a good shot to remain the top vote-getter in Iowa because 53 percent of voters think he's the "safest" choice. Only 20 percent, on the other hand, think Sanders isn't risky.> Notice that @BernieSanders has the most enthusiasm in Iowa, while @JoeBiden is seen as the safest choice, according to @CBSNewsPoll pic.twitter.com/pwM3zTWZH1> > — Ed O'Keefe (@edokeefe) January 5, 2020The CBS News surveys were conducted by YouGov between Dec. 27, 2019 and and Jan. 3, 2020.
