Richmond, Va. (Newsradiowrva.com) -  A new poll by the Wason Center at Chrisptopher Newport University finds that former Vice President Joe Biden is leading Virginia Primary (22%) with Senator Bernie Sanders (17%) in second.  Mike Bloomberg is the only other candidate in the poll that reaches double digits (13%).

Wason Center Director Quentin Kidd says Virginia Democrats tend to be more moderate, and that is reflected in the results. For example, his poll found that 60% of Virginians do not want to completely re-do the nation's health care system, a major part of Sanders' Campaign.


The poll also looked at November, finding 59% of Virginians want a new President.  The margin of error for the questions ranged from 3.5% to 4.3%.
