A new poll shows Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders dethroning fellow presidential hopeful Joe Biden to clinch top spot among the 2020 Democrat challengers.

Sanders has pulled ahead of the former vice president in the New Hampshire poll, with 29 percent of respondents saying they would vote for the self-avowed “democratic socialist.”
