CLINTON REMAINS WITH STRONG LEAD, NEW LORAS COLLEGE POLL FINDS
12/15/2015
With the 2016 Iowa precinct caucuses only seven weeks away, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton continues to hold a strong lead over her nearest rival, Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders in the statewide Loras College poll of 501 likely Democratic caucus voters conducted December 7-10.
The newest poll finds Clinton leading in terms of which candidate people intend to vote for, and in terms of which candidate people expect will actually win the caucus, as well as be the eventual nominee.
How much these expectations are built upon media attention and punditry, and how much on an accurate sense by Iowans of how other voters are likely to act is an interesting question. But, right now it looks like Clinton is in a strong position with the campaigns turning toward the holiday stretch, commented Associate Professor of Politics and Director of the Loras College Poll, Christopher Budzisz, Ph.D.

(4,377 posts)16. There is very little real state polling outside the 1st three states.
Plus the focus of his campaign has been on the early states for obvious reasons. Despite the lack of polling, I'd expect Iowa/NH to be the closest at this point.
