Charles Booker in the primary.

Former vice president Joe Biden, who is seen as a more conservative candidate, came in third at 14.9 percent with MoveOn's progressive supporters; Indiana Mayor Pete Buttigieg rounded out the top four with 11.9 percent. The rest of the field were in the single digits. Warren, California's Sen. Kamala Harris, Buttigieg, and Sanders were the top four candidates for the poll's "second choice" option.
