Here is some interesting polling on progressive policy ideas that do a rigorous job of framing the ideas in partisan-balanced ways. Not surprisingly, some of the farthest left ideas like abolishing ICE or decriminalizing border crossings or reparations for slavery poll very poorly. However, a number of positions that were pretty far left a few years ago poll well, including marijuana legalization and vigorous enforcement of the Clean Air and Clean Water acts.
If Sanders is the nominee, how open will he be to walking back some of his ideas to reassure the center? That's the million dollar question as Super Tuesday looms.
