5. Here is a more current poll...

Hillary Clinton leads rival Bernie Sanders by 25 points nationally ahead of Sunday's final Democratic debate and the all-important Iowa caucuses, according to the latest results from the new NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll.

Clinton is the first choice of 59 percent of Democratic primary voters, while Sanders gets the support of 34 percent. Martin O'Malley gets 2 percent.

I would be remiss in not thanking you for kicking my thread.

6. You should edit the title of your OP.

The poll results you posted are not "new".

[leftofcool]

8. Correct, her lead is higher that that.

[darkangel218]

10. Thats beside the point. It's an old poll, why call it "new"?

[thomservo]

15. old data also...

[DemocratSinceBirth]

19. It is the most current poll released.

But I would be remiss if I said I didn't admire your persistence and thank you for kicking my thread.





Yours truly,

25. If you believe the most up to date poll is old data there is nothing I can do ...

If you believe the most up to date poll is old data there is nothing I can do to disabuse you of that notion.



As always, thank you for kicking my thread.

3. Nice!

Thanks DSB

[DemocratSinceBirth]

12. You are welcome, sir.

[darkangel218]

4. The results are from a week ago, January 9-12.

Why are you calling it new?

[darkangel218]

9. The title is still misleading. The poll is one week +old.

It should not be called new.

[darkangel218]

13. Lol! Why the straw man?

A one week old poll is not new.

[darkangel218]

16. *yawn*

I see what you're doing here..

Welcome to DU, BTW.

[thomservo]

17. yes...

and interesting it wasn't released until today.

[Fla Dem]

32. Do you have anything newer? If not then this is the newest poll results. nt

18. Hillary and MO'M should get a bump upwards in next week's polling.

They both gave an excellent accounting of themselves in the debate.

[MoonRiver]

20. Hillary will.

Don't know if Martin had enough air time to make any difference for him. And that it too bad.

[Stuckinthebush]

21. Clinton did enough to solidify her Iowa support

and clinch her SC win. Well done.

[oasis]

22. SC should be a cinch. I'll be glad when we can just

concentrate on the GE. it will be an all hands effort here instead of constant annoyances.

[Stuckinthebush]

24. Amen to that, Oasis!

I am so sick of the rancor here. I actually saw a post on last nights debate thread that said, "That woman turns my stomach!"

What the hell? It has become stupid around here. Once the GE comes around we can all focus on the real enemy which is the GOP!

[KittyWampus]

29. O'Malley seems to have no traction. I have a knack for picking such candidates...

Tom Harking, Bill Bradley, Wesley Clark...

[Gothmog]

26. Thanks for posting

27. This is just about meaningless until after Iowa and New Hampshire

as we saw back in 08 when her huge lead evaporated in a matter of days. Keep in mind that only 12 out of 100 people need to change their mind for a 25 point advantage to evaporate. People are not tuned in nationally yet so Hillary's name recognition is mostly what this is polling.

That being said, Iowa needs to close quickly for Sanders and I am not sure that will happen or not. Regardless, I really could care less about National Polls. Nate Silver won't even project anything beyond NH based on a lack of polling data.

Nate Silver: 'Trump Has More of a Chance Than Bernie' of Winning a Nomination


Is there any chance Hillary isn't the Democratic nominee?
I think you would have to have some type of renewed scandal or health problem or something like that. I could see Bernie Sanders winning a few states. New Hampshire is still very close. But her chances have to be in the range of 90 [percent] to 95 percent. Trump has more of a chance than Bernie.

30. Thats his personal opinion not his polling data and it's from Jan 4th before it tightened up

and I would take his personal opinion with a grain of salt since he predicted Trump to disappear a long time ago. He doesn't seem to have his finger on the pulse the way he has in the past. Nate is extremely good at reading poll data but beyond that he is just another pundit and his punditry very far out is pretty mediocre at best this year. Believe me because I was posting his articles predicting Trump to cave.

31. Past 3 major polls recent by the way

Has her leading by nearly same percent.
Holding steady and moving forward !
Don't care what the polling says she will win the first 2 early states.
When push comes to shove they will go for experience.
