POLL: Branding Democratic Candidates in South Carolina
Eric Dienstfrey | May 2, 2007
A new Chernoff Newman/MarketSearch statewide survey (release, brand analysis, results) of 400 registered, likely Democratic primary voters in South Carolina (conducted 4/9 through 4/16) finds:
- In a South Carolina Democratic primary, Sen. Hillary Clinton leads Sen. Barack Obama 38% to 21%, while Edwards and Gore trail at 17% at 10% respectively. In a three-way race, Clinton (at 43%) leads Obama and Edwards (both at 25%).
- The survey tests the "branding" of the Democratic candidates with extensive questions on their familiarity, reputation, personality, performance, and connectivity.
