Voters Currently Don't Want Oprah to Run for President

Brad Anderson, an Iowa-based political strategist who is of counsel at Precision Strategies, said the survey results regarding Winfrey's political views may be "premature" because "people think she’s liberal because they associate her with Hollywood."

"That could all change once she starts talking about issues," Anderson said in an email Tuesday.

In head-to-head primary matchups with a handful of possible Democratic 2020 contenders, Winfrey performed best against New York Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand among Democrats, leading her 44 percent to 23 percent. She also leads Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren 39 percent to 35 percent. The poll found Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders (I) would beat Winfrey, 46 percent to 37 percent. But former Vice President Joe Biden would beat Winfrey by a larger margin, 54 percent to 31 percent, among Democrats.

Still, Anderson said he thinks she could at least get some meetings in Iowa.

"I guarantee any of our 99 Democratic county chairs would be happy to talk to Oprah Winfrey about whatever she wants to talk about, whether its presidential politics or some of her favorite things," he said.
