Shock Poll: Sanders Opens 27% Lead in NH

A new poll appears to show the feisty Vermont Senator opening up double-digit lead in New Hampshire’s first-in-the-nation Democrat primary, according to a post on CNN.com.

The poll shows U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-VT, receiving 60 percent of voters who will choose a Democrat ballot on Feb. 9. Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, D-NY, received 33 percent of the vote. Former Gov. Martin O’Malley, D-MD, received 1 percent in the poll. Six percent said they didn’t know whom they were voting for or were unsure. The poll was taken before the debate between the three of them on Sunday night.

The poll was conducted by the University of New Hampshire Survey Center and sampled 420 adults via cell and landlines between Jan. 13, and Jan. 18, that stated they would be taking a Democrat ballot. The poll has a plus or minus margin of error of 4.8 percent.
