Dean Increases Lead As Clark Challenges Kerry for Second Place Among Democrats in New Hampshire
Receiving a boost from registered Democrats, former Vermont Governor Howard Dean has increased his lead in ballot preference among likely Democratic primary voters in the New Hampshire Democratic Presidential Preference Primary according to the latest New Hampshire Poll. In ballot preference, Dean now leads with 45%. Senator John Kerry is at 13% and Wesley Clark is at 11%. Ballot preferences for the six other major candidates remain in single digits.
Dean's strength is based on gaining support from registered Democrats. A total of 46% of registered Democrats now say they would vote for Dean, surpassing the 44% of undeclared voters saying they would vote for Dean.
These results are based on 600 completed telephone interviews among a random sample of registered Democrats and undeclared voters in New Hampshire saying they will definitely vote in the Democratic primary on January 27. This sample includes 430 Democrats (72%) and 170 undeclared voters (28%). The interviews were conducted November 30 through December 3, 2003. The theoretical margin of error for the total sample of 600 is plus or minus 4 percentage points, 95% of the time, on questions where opinion is evenly split.
Ballot preference for Dean is up 7 percentage points from two weeks ago as ballot preference for Kerry has dropped 4 percentage points. - Plural wives plead case - Weekly U.S. crude oil supply increases - Eighteen Die in Second Deadliest Day for U.S. in Iraq - Conservative Students in Texas Place Liberal Profs on Watch List - Two dead, three hurt in Ohio workplace shooting - Dean 'Appalled' That Florida Lawmakers Saved Schiavo - Conservative Jewish Leader Denounces ADL for Gibson Critique - Sen.
