Hillary Clinton holds a three-point edge over Senator Bernie Sanders in Iowa, a tightening of the race with roughly three weeks until voting begins, according to a new set of surveys of likely voters from NBC/The Wall Street Journal/Marist.
In the Republican contest, Senator Ted Cruz of Texas has 28 percent of support and Donald J. Trump has 24 percent in Iowa, but Mr. Trump maintains a commanding 16-point lead over Senator Marco Rubio of Florida, his closest competitor, in New Hampshire, the surveys show.
Mr. Rubio is in third place in Iowa at 13 percent, with Ben Carson at 11 percent. The other candidates are at 5 percent or less in the state.

To hell with the establishment on both sides. Looking forward to a Sanders v Trump general as opposed to a Clinton v Rubio/Bush one.

He's just resuming the upward trend that will continue through the rest of the year

(19,326 posts)5. 3 points? That should be well-within the poll's "margin of error"
But certainly nothing should be taken for granted at this point.
Peddle-to-the-metal time. GO BERNIE!!!!!
