We now have 75% of precincts reporting in #IowaCaucuses Image
@CBSNews Buttigieg still ahead in state delegate race, while Sanders has the edge in caucus goers' final choice (popular vote) Image
@CBSNews Updated votes-to-SDE ratios using latest #IowaCaucuses data

Biden 54
Buttigieg 60
Klobuchar 63
Sanders 66
Warren 72

Ratios higher than yesterday for each of these candidates, indicating decrease in efficiency (as larger counties report)
@CBSNews Just got a faulty batch of data from Iowa Democratic Party but supposed to get #IowaCaucuses corrected data soon
@CBSNews If you're wondering what the data issue was, it looks like candidates were mistakenly transposed
@CBSNews Okay, let's try this again...

With 86% of precincts reporting, Buttigieg state delegate lead is holding -- he's still over a point ahead of Sanders

#IowaCaucuses Image
@CBSNews Sanders still has the edge in caucus goers' final choices, but he currently leads by fewer than 1,000 votes #IowaCaucuses Image
@CBSNews With 97% now in, tiny margin remains between Buttigieg and Sanders in state delegate equivalents... it's just 3 now

Waiting on satellite caucus -- could tip scale

Iowa Democratic Party may have more data issues to review -- campaigns have until Friday to request

#IowaCaucuses
@CBSNews Reminder: though we're waiting on final #IowaCaucuses result, when it comes to *delegates* to the national convention -- what Democratic nominees are vying to earn -- multiple candidates will be on the board in Iowa, and the leading two candidates will likely get a similar number
@CBSNews 100% of #IowaCaucuses results now in according to Iowa Democratic Party

Sanders leads in first and final preference, while Buttigieg still ahead in state delegate equivalents but only by couple

Will continue to go through data and seek clarification from party on SDE allocation
@CBSNews According to latest data, #IowaCaucuses turnout is 176,436 in terms of initial preference and 172,521 in final preference

Threading some interesting findings on '22 turnout via U.S. Census Current Population Survey...

52.2% of citizen voting-age population voted in '22 — just a point behind midterm record set in '18

69% of voting-age citizens registered to vote — highest on record (since '02)

1/4 Image
Nearly half (47.1%) of '22 votes were cast ahead of Election Day

While 20 points lower than '20, that's 9 points higher than previous midterm in '18

Nearly one third (31.8%) of voters cast ballots by mail (that's also down double digits from '20, while up 9 points from '18)

2/ Image
Use of early & mail voting varied by race & ethnicity...

Highest usage rate came from Asian voters (67%)

Majority of Hispanic voters (58%) voted either early or by mail

Lowest usage rates came from White non-Hispanic (48%) and Black voters (46%)

NEW poll on GOP primary electorate and why most would still pick Trump

MAGA-friendly ideas widely held among Reps...

Want candidates who say Trump won in '20, don't criticize him, challenge "woke" ideas, make liberals angry

Some are exhausted by Trump, but far outnumbered

1/7 Image
It's early, so voters first picked as many names as they are *considering* for GOP nom — then picked one they would vote for today

Trump at 58% vote, winning more of his considerers than anyone else

DeSantis trails by a lot, but has room to grow among those considering him

2/7 Image
Trump may also have support floor: quarter of likely GOP voters considering *only Trump* right now, and no other names tested

Important because someone could win with plurality support if eventual field is fractured again

Another half of voters considering Trump + other(s)

NEW Battleground Tracker out today...

GOP heads into fall still in position to win back House, but advantage a bit smaller after tumultuous summer — trend points toward narrow gains instead of wave

We estimate 226 GOP seats today — 12-seat gain that is smaller than in July

1/5
GOP winning voters who prioritize economy/inflation, so what's tempering overall advantage?

Abortion is big part of story: still on voters' minds, shoring up Dem support, especially with women

More say midterm vote will be to support abortion rights rather than oppose them

2/5
Another part of story is dropping gas prices and uptick in Biden approval — 45% with RVs, highest since Feb

Ratings also up on handling bread-and-butter issues like economy and inflation

Democrats driving gains: +8 on approval from July and +13 on things going well in U.S.

First edition of 2022 Battleground Tracker finds GOP lead of about 25 seats in U.S. House race

We survey voters across all 435 districts and apply an MRP model translating current preferences into seats

Snapshot of electorate, not a forecast — 100 days until Election Day!

1/5
Our poll explains GOP lead cbsn.ws/3JjWqfB

Looks like nature-of--times election: voters most likely to base vote on way things are in country — bad news for party in power

GOP leading among those who cite inflation and those feeling personal impact of higher prices

2/5
Midterms typically referendum on party in power...

Overall, 47% say they're basing their vote a lot on their feelings about Biden — driven by Republicans, most of whom still don't call him legitimate 2020 winner

Trump is still factor for about as many — driven by Democrats

New @CBSNewsPoll study this week on voting in U.S.

In first installment, we find that most Americans say they prefer the voting process be left alone or made easier

With fight over voting in national spotlight, partisans see it as high-stakes fight affecting who wins power

1/6
Ds see risk to their electoral fortunes if voting is made harder, while Rs see risk to theirs if it's made easier

Ds say harder voting results in some key constituencies losing power

Rs less likely than Ds to see gains/losses, but on balance predict latter if voting easier

2/6
Note: partisans' views echo political discourse but may not be right

Many states expanded by-mail voting in 2020, but not clear it was responsible for historic turnout — recent research suggests otherwise

And even if easier voting boosted turnout, unclear Ds always benefit

Thread highlighting takeaways from survey experiment

Given claims that Trump could improve vaccine uptake among supporters, we looked at effects of Trump and Biden endorsing vaccines

Data collected March 17-21 with @YouGov; recontacted people from March 10-13 national poll

1/7
Reps randomly assigned to see either:
Extra Q about Trump getting and endorsing vaccine
No extra question

Dems randomly assigned to see either:
Extra Q about Biden (analogous to above)
No extra question

Idea was to nudge people w/ presidential cue and measure causal effect

2/7
Trump cue comes as news to many Republicans...

Only 11% say they've heard a lot about Trump getting vaccinated and encouraging others to do the same in a recent speech

Another third say they've heard some about it, but a similar number saying they have heard nothing at all

3/7
