These charts reflect the results of a new Out Magazine / YouGov Poll -- done between November 11th and 18th of 816 registered LGBTQ voters nationally. The poll has a 4.7 point margin of error.
If you thought Pete Burrigieg, who is a gay man, would have the LGBTQ vote locked up, then you are in for a surprise. LGBTQ voters are more complicated than that. And like other voters, they are more concerned with who has the best policies and who can defeat Donald Trump.
The top chart shows the candidates those voters are considering (and respondents could choose as many candidates as they wanted). Only one candidate is being considered by a majority of LGBTQ voters -- Elizabeth Warren with 61%. She is followed by Sanders (45%), Buttigieg (39%), and Biden (36%).
The second chart shows the candidate respondents would pick if the primary was right now. Once again, Warren is far ahead with 31% -- followed by Sanders (18%), Biden (16%), and Buttigieg (14%).
The poll also asked the respondents who they would NOT consider voting for. That chart is below.
