Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) leads former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton among likely Democratic presidential primary voters in both early states of Iowa and New Hampshire, according to a new CBS/YouGov poll released Sunday.
In the Granite State, the self-described democratic socialist has opened up a whopping 22-point lead over Clinton, 52 percent to 30 percent.
Even more worrying for Clinton, however, is her performance in the key caucus state of Iowa. According to the poll, Sanders leads the secretary of state in the Hawkeye State by a margin of 10 points, 43 percent to 33 percent.
The CBS/YouGov poll of Iowa surveyed 1,670 registered voters online and over the phone between Sept. 3 and Sept. 10. It had a margin of error of +/- 4.4 percent. The CBS/YouGov polls of New Hampshire surveyed 1,350 registered voters online and over the phone during the same period. It had a margin of error of +/- 5.1 percent.

(1,415 posts)I could be wrong but I think the establishment in both parties has taken a dump. This election smells different. I think with all if the new polls today. Trump leading big time now in all early GOP primaries. Bernie now doing the same as a trending. iA NH and niw catching up in CA and SC. I think that Bernie would do well against the ZgOP .. I have GOP friends that support Bernie which way cool. This election is gonna be one for the ages. I think again the stablishment in both parties are shitting themselves this am and it's a good thing IMO. Long overdue

Bernie is rising faster than I thought.My belief when he started was it would take winning Iowa and NH to collapse Hilary's lead which i always thought was doable but things have been moving faster than even I thought possible.and we are only In middle of
September.
Bernie's success is grassroots of our party revolting against the establishment.
Trump on GOP side is similar story.I never saw that coming i will admit.
the fall 2016 campaign is looking like perfect contrast between 2 partys.Bernie represents the progressive and populist side of grassroots of dems and on side of issues that majority of americans support.Trump Is perfect Representative of the top 1%.He has
presented himself as fake populist.Trump is claiming he opposes TPP and would raise taxes on rich.
I can defiantly Imagine at GOP convention them saying Bernie is most radical candidate ever for president.Of course Poppy Bush In 1992 called Bill Clinton, Carter 2 and it didn't help him.
