Biden leading climate change voters, Sierra Club poll finds
Center of Energy & Environment Director Myron Ebell says the climate change initiatives proposed by the 2020 Democratic presidential contenders may lead to consumers paying thousands of dollars more per year for their electric bills and transportation.
Democratic presidential hopeful Joe Biden is in the lead on climate change, according to an American environmental organization's recent poll.
The Sierra Club released a climate voter tracking poll revealing how candidates stack up according to Democratic primary voters.
According to that poll, Biden leads by 30 percent with no change recorded since July’s poll. The poll showed Biden has been the frontrunner with climate voters since June 17.
Other candidates like Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., and Sen. Bernie Sanders, D-Vt., trail behind Biden but remain neck and neck with each other -- with Warren polling at 21 percent and Sanders at 20 percent. Sen. Kamala Harris, D-Calif., stands at 7 percent in the poll, which has fallen by 6 percent since July.
