Vice President Joe Biden has yet to announce whether he'll seek the Democratic nomination for president in 2016, but Bloomberg Politics poll results released this morning find him netting the support of one in four Democratic voters. Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is still in the lead with 33 percent support, and Sen. Bernie Sanders is just one point behind Biden at 24 percent.
Perhaps there's even more encouraging news for the Biden camp: The poll also found that nearly half of Democrats — 47 percent — would at least like the opportunity to vote for Biden by having him jump into the race.
