POLL: Boston Globe/UNH New Hampshire Primary
A new Boston Globe/University of New Hampshire statewide survey (story; results) of likely primary voters in New Hampshire (conducted 11/2 through 11/7) finds:
- Among 400 likely Democratic primary voters, Sen. Hillary Clinton leads Sen. Barack Obama (35% to 21%) in a national primary; former Sen. John Edwards trails at 15%, Gov. Bill Richardson at 10%. All other candidates receive less than five percent each.
- Among 404 likely Republican primary voters, former Gov. Mitt Romney leads former Mayor Rudy Giuliani (32% to 20%) in a statewide primary; former Sen. John McCain trails at 17%, Rep. Ron Paul at 7%, former Gov. Mike Huckabee at 5%. All other candidates receive less than five percent each.
- 24% of Democrats have "definitely decided" who to vote for, 28% are leaning and 48% have no idea. 16% of Republicans have definitely decided, 24% are leaning, and 60% have no idea.

Just wait until Ron Paul's money raising starts to become a factor...he's ramping up the radio/tv spots in NH with all that dough in the bank...unfortunately for Richardson he doesn't have that kind of dollar power.

And of the 16% Republicans who "definitely decided", 7% could be Paul's supporters! It will be very interesting to see how it plays out..

I notice the composite graphic doesn't show much response to the latest results. Might we see a variation with the sensitivity cranked up?

Look at Richardson and Paul making some moves in NH. If 48% of Democrats and 60% of Republicans have are "still trying to decide" (per the language used in the survey script), New Hampshire is surprisingly still WIDE OPEN for both primaries.
