Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren got anointed by her fellow Democratic opponents at Tuesday's debate as a front-runner worthy of toppling. But initial polling conducted by FiveThirtyEight.com and Ipsos suggests that viewers believe she held her own under tough circumstances. The survey tested debate watchers' perceptions of the candidates' favorabilities before the debate in contrast to how they viewed the performances of those candidates after the debate. Warren went in with the highest favorability rating at 71.9 percent and was also rated as delivering the best performance at 3.2 on a 4-point scale. Vice President Joe Biden had the second highest favorability going in at 68.2 percent but delivered the 4th best performance at 3.0. Both Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders and South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg both got higher debate marks than Biden at 3.1, according to the panel.
The survey also tested which candidates debate watchers were considering voting for both before and after the debate and found that Buttigieg, Minnesota Sen. Amy Klobuchar, and Warren got the biggest bumps overall. "Buttigieg got the biggest increase—4.5 points—in the share of likely Democratic primary voters who are considering supporting him. Klobuchar and Warren also got meaningful bumps, gaining 3.6 points and 2.6 points, respectively," writes FiveThirtyEight.
