POLL: Reuters/C-SPAN/Zogby New Hampshire Primary
Eric Dienstfrey | January 4, 2008
The first in a succession of Reuters/C-SPAN/Zogby statewide tracking surveys of likely primary voters in New Hampshire (conducted 12/31 through 1/3) finds:
- Among 1,076 likely Republican primary voters, Sen. John McCain runs at 34%, former Gov. Mitt Romney at 30% in a statewide primary; former Gov. Mike Huckabee trails at 10%, former Mayor Rudy Giuliani at 9%, Rep. Ron Paul at 7%.
- Among 960 likely Democratic primary voters, Sen. Hillary Clinton leads Sen. Barack Obama (32% to 26%) in a statewide primary; former Sen. John Edwards trails at 20%, Gov. Bill Richardson at 7%.
- All other candidates receive less than five percent each. The margin of sampling error is 3% for likely Republican primary voters and 3.2% for likely Democratic primary voters.

You've got McCain's number wrong here...it should be 34 and not 24.

It should be noted that all people were polled before the Iowa caucuses.
When compared to Zogby's early December poll (one month ago), it is interesting to note the changes: Clinton 0, Obama +5, Edwards +4, McCain +17, Romney - 5, Giuliani -6, Huckabee 0.

They don't have much time (5 days) to work in adjustments due to Biden and Dodd dropping out of the race. I wonder what happens to Richardson since he was looking for a strong 3rd place showing and instead got only 6 or 7% of the initial vote (2% after the viability rules were applied).
