This seems to confirm the Monmouth poll that Bernie supporters are trying to unskew.
-----------------------
Hillary Clinton grew her Iowa lead over Bernie Sanders in the most recent Loras College Poll, which was released today.
Clinton holds a 38-percentage-point lead over Sanders with 61.6 percent support from likely Democratic Iowa voters surveyed.
Sanders takes second with 23.6 percent support. Thats a 4.4-percentage-point increase for Clinton and a 2.7-percentage-point decrease for Sanders compared to recalculated August poll results accommodating for Joe Bidens decision to not run.
Martin OMalley holds on at 3.2 percent support in the new poll, down 2.4 percentage points compared to the recalculated August results.
Jim Webb and Lincoln Chafee, both of which have suspended their campaigns, each garnered less than 1 percent support.

winter is coming
(11,785 posts)It's no surprise that Hillary has an advantage among people most likely to be labeled "likely voters". The question is, how many unlikely voters are there that will turn out for the caucus?

(30,439 posts)Just like how most political polls in 2012 were weighted for race, gender, party affiliation etc.
Makes perfect sense.
