Washington Examiner on line debate poll. 63% believe Sanders won tonight.
Was looking on line to see how the media was spinning it and found the Washington Examiner poll.

Biden came in at a distant 3rd with 9%

Interesting as the Washington Examiner is considered to be a RW news source.

Star Member Kaleva posted a link to a Reich-Wing Media Source?!!! Alert! Alert! ALERT!!!

Actually, online poll are dubious, as the participants are self-selecting and likely to reflect the biases of the source's audience.

Not that I think MSM-commissioned "scientific" polls are any better, since the questions often are loaded and the sample model intentionally jiggered to produce a desired outcome.
