James Last Saturday night, most of the political world was awaiting the Iowa poll from Ann

Celser.

Because every time Ann Celser does a poll, people who know something about politics wait

for it because as 538 wrote several years ago, she may be the very best political pollster

in the land.

The poll was a bombshell of sorts.

I'll give you the bottom line numbers.

As we talked to our great guest Ann Celser, Pete Buttigieg, surgeon, the lead at 25, and

then Warren and Biden and Sanders were all bunched at 16-15 and the rest of the pack was in

Nebraska.

Ann Celser, what was your take away from this really, really fascinating poll?

Well, we've been looking at the same four front runners out for most of the polls.

So we expected, you know, if things stayed the same, we'd see the same four.

But really, we have a standalone front runner now in Pete Buttigieg and then a cluster

of the other three.

And those are the only ones in double digits.

The next highest is 6% with Amy Klobuchar.

So you really have this pack of four with one stand out there.

So it was a giant leap frog over the rest of the field.
