Two recent polls show Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) breaking from Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) and gaining significant ground on former Vice President Joe Biden.

Sanders, 76, and Warren, 70, have typically been close to each other, or Sanders has been above Warren, but the two polls show Warren received at least 9 percentage points more than Sanders and was much closer to Biden, 76, than Sanders.
