Biden retained the highest lead in those states, with a 5 percentage point advantage over Trump, coming in at 49 percent. Sanders earned a 3 percentage point lead over the president, also landing at 49 percent.

Both Warren and Buttigieg lagged behind Trump by 1 percentage point in these battleground states, with 48 percent and 46 percent, respectively.

The poll’s results come in the day ahead of the Iowa caucuses, as many voters have emphasized the importance of picking a nominee who can beat Trump. All four of the 2020 Democratic candidates are in a tight race to win delegates in the state. 

The NBC News-Wall Street Journal poll was conducted between Jan. 26 and Jan. 29 with 1,000 registered voters, with a margin of error of 3.1 percentage points.
