Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) hasn't exactly appeared to light Iowa on fire in recent polls. After surging to the lead last year, she's mostly settled in fourth place behind former Vice President Joe Biden, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), and former South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg. But there's been hints the recently canceled poll from CNN and The Des Moines Register, which considered the state's gold standard survey, included some good news for Warren.
BuzzFeed News reports that journalists caught a glimpse of the poll even though the results were never published because of a survey interview error. So the numbers are still influencing media reports on the race, which will conclude Monday night after the state's caucuses. One reporter for a "major national outlet" told BuzzFeed they covered a Warren event because she did well in the poll.
