Here are the Democrats who gained and lost the most in the first 2020 presidential primary debate earlier this week.
Castro entered the night as a relative unknown: Only about 39% of likely Democratic voters had an opinion of him entering the night, Morning consult found. But after the debates, 47.8% of respondents had a favorable view of him, versus only 11.7% who had an unfavorable opinion.
By the end of the night, Booker talked more than any other candidate. His net favorability rating jumped by 8 percentage points — nearly as much as Harris rose, according to Morning Consult. Only Booker talked more than O'Rourke on Wednesday, according to the Post. But O'Rourke's net favorability dropped 4.3 percentage points, the most among all the candidates on stage Wednesday, according to Morning Consult.
But Harris put Biden on his heels in the most talked about moment in two nights of debates. The former vice president defended himself by saying he didn't oppose busing in the U.S. "What I opposed was busing ordered by the Department of Education," he said.
