New poll shows Clinton recovers lost ground in New Hampshire

Other Democratic presidential candidates Martin O’Malley, Jim Webb, Lincoln Chafee and Larry Lessig each saw less than 3 percent of the vote, according to poll results.

Sanders had surged in the state throughout the summer, and he has led every public poll in the state since one that was conducted from July 22 to July 30. “I don’t think Ben Carson is as well prepared or as politically experienced as Hillary Clinton, yet I think he’d be a better president”. Left-wing Democrats, like right-wing Republicans, are enchanted by candidates who dare to take stands they perceive as unpopular with voters generally. Just 24% chose Sanders. A lower-tier candidate, former Sen.

Vice President Joe Biden might well have also realized there might not have been as much room for him on that stage as he once thought – and quite possibly there might no longer be the urgency or need for his candidacy that many once felt there was. This sentiment was echoed in the poll, as almost 62 percent of the 500 respondents said that Clinton’s email scandal doesn’t bother them. In recent days, more reliable surveys have shown Clinton as the victor.

The news of her overtaking Sanders comes before her upcoming appearence on the ‘Late Show with Stephen Colbert’. The campaign raised more than Dollars 5 million this quarter in contributions of USD 200 or less, and more than 60 per cent of the campaign’s donors this quarter were women, thus showing her increasing popularity.

The election is just getting started, and this was the first time most people heard from the candidates.

And the poll offered more evidence that the window may be closing for Biden to enter the race.

Sanders’ haul is a testament to the uncomfortably close nature of the year’s primary contest for the Clinton campaign, as her challenger has had much greater success attracting small donors. “I got 36 [percent] on it”. Clinton went after Sanders over his support for a controversial gun law called the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act, which protects gun manufacturers and distributors from most legal liability if sued by victims of gun violence. HuffPost/YouGov only asked about whether Clinton or “someone else” should be the nominee, and Clinton picked up 8 points in that question. A 52% majority chose her, compared with 16% who cited Sanders and 14% Biden.

On Wednesday he held what his campaign said were the eighth and ninth traditional fundraisers since Sanders launched his presidential bid.
