The wealthy businessman, worth an estimated $53 billion,that he did not plan to seek the nomination. At the time, he warned Democrats against dragging"the party to an extreme that would diminish our chances in the general election.
Despite tentatively throwing his hat into the ring at a relatively late stage, Bloomberg would appear to be entering the race just below the top tier of candidates. The former mayor has long considered a presidential run, having previously explored the possibility in 2008 and 2016 as well. Viewed as a centrist Democrat, Bloomberg's potential presidential run would move forward on an unconventional strategy, which would skip over Iowa, New Hampshire, Nevada and South Carolina,. Instead, he would focus on the next set of larger states holding early primaries.
The Morning Consult poll also found that Bloomberg currently has greater support among voters than Trump. According to the survey, 43 percent of voters would back the former New York mayor, compared to just 37 percent that would back the president. However, Warren, Sanders and Biden are all projected to beat Trump, with Warren also polling with a six point lead, 45 percent to 39 percent.
