Will there be a moderate lane in the 2020 Democratic primary?

Most polls don’t release detailed breakdowns of Democrats who identify as moderate and conservative, so it’s a bit hard to describe this group and its views precisely.

White voters with college degrees (16 percent).

I think this will be a complicated bloc to unify around a single candidate. Why? Well, the obvious reason is the demographic differences here.
