PPP Polling: Democratic Voters Overwhelmingly Think Clinton Won Debate (Hillary Group)

A Public Policy Polling survey of Democratic primary voters nationally who watched tonight’s debate finds that it reinforced Hillary Clinton’s front runner status. Viewers overwhelmingly think she won the debate, and particularly trust her over the rest of the Democratic field when it comes to issues of national security.

Key findings from the survey include:

-67% of voters think Clinton won the debate, to 20% for Bernie Sanders and 7% for Martin O’Malley. On a related note 63% of viewers said the debate gave them a more positive opinion of Clinton, compared to 41% who said it gave them a more positive opinion of Sanders, and 37% who said it gave them a more positive opinion of O’Malley.

-Clinton is by a wide margin the candidate debate watchers trust the most on national security issues. 75% say they have the most faith in Clinton on that front, compared to only 17% for Sanders, and 5% for O’Malley. National security issues were a primary focus tonight in the aftermath of yesterday’s tragedy in France, and Democratic voters by far and away trust Clinton the most on that issue.

-What’s particularly striking is how universal the sentiment that Clinton won the debate tonight is among all the different groups within the Democratic Party. 86% of African Americans, 73% of women, 70% of moderates, 69% of seniors, 67% of Hispanics, 65% of liberals, 61% of white voters, 58% of men, and 50% of younger voters all think that Clinton was the winner of tonight’s debate.

-Overall among those who watched the debate tonight, 67% say they plan to vote for Clinton in the primary to 25% for Sanders, and 4% for O’Malley.

Clinton came into tonight’s debate as the clear front runner for the Democrats and these numbers make it clear that the debate and particularly Clinton’s strength on national security issues just reinforced her front runner status....

That poll was commissioned by Correct The Record = a strategic research and rapid response team designed to defend Hillary Clinton from baseless attacks
http://correctrecord.org/about/

Respectfully, it smells of Hillary money trying to buy a result she didn't earn.

All the other polls, although mostly informal & online, are a landslide for Bernie:

since the first debate. Just because the BS Group hasn't seen the results they wanted from these debates, that they were screaming for more of, they've taken to trying to discredit the polls, and are relying heavily on "internet" polling.

Online polls can be gamed by a coordinated effort on the part of a particular campaign, especially the ones that allow you to vote over & over again.

when she was double-teamed on either flank. I was furious about that. She remained poised and calm, but I, personally, really didn't like the vicious attacks from both Sanders and O'Malley when she did none of that to either of them.

For that alone, for her poise and her calm even though I wanted to throw something at these two, she won the debate.

Obama: Making Hillary Clinton secretary of State one of my ‘best decisions’

Asking Hillary Clinton to serve as secretary of State was "one of the best decisions I ever made as president," President Obama told philanthropists and donors gathered Tuesday at the Clinton Global Initiative meeting in New York City.

The president showered the former first lady — and front-runner for the 2016 Democratic presidential nomination — with praise, saying he "will always be grateful for her extraordinary leadership."

Obama went on to joke that he still had "a lot of debt to pay" because of the miles Clinton traveled when in his administration. But he also praised the former New York senator for her "post-administration glow."
"She looks much more rested," Obama said to laughter.

I admire Hillary so much for her answer to President Obama's call to service. They started working together for the good of the country and our Planet. Not stuck in the past like so many people who only want to go on and on about it.

Evidently they've remained good friends.. and I couldn't be happier.

Awesome Birthday Tweet from Hillary to President Obama!

... She handled it extremely well, was quick on the uptake, and was not bothered. After all, she took 11 hours of the Bogus Committee and never sweated. Trump is going to be as nasty as all get out, and everything she experiences up to that point is preparation for the big fight.

HRC is so prepared and I am so proud of her.
