Missed last night's debate? @MaddieSach, Yutong Yuan and I made you 6 charts:
Yang and Klobuchar both had a pretty good night, according to our poll: both increased their net favorability, though they still rank lower than much of the rest of the field.

While past debates saw a positive relationship between polling average and words spoken, this one bucked that trend: Klobuchar and Buttigieg spoke the most, while Biden and Sanders said less than we might expect (R = 0.3!)pic.twitter.com/XPruFGrGT9
Overall, while Biden got the highest marks from respondents in our poll, Biden, Warren and Sanders all performed roughly as well as we would expect given their pre-debate favorability. Buttigieg and Steyer did worse, both in absolute terms and compared to their pre-debate scores.pic.twitter.com/mnx7ynITsF
Also notably, respondents who prefer a candidate who can beat Trump were generally more positive on the candidates' performances than those who prefer someone who is closer to them on the issues. Two exceptions: Sanders and Yang, who did equally well among both groups.pic.twitter.com/AVO6mxKA1b
