Gallup: About One in Four Democrats Have Switched Candidates (19% switched to Obama, 7% to Clinton)

[DerekJ]

Roughly one in four Democrats nationally say their preference for whether Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama wins the Democratic presidential nomination has changed at least once since the start of the primary season in January. Most of the converts -- 19% of all Democrats and Democratic leaners -- have moved out of Clinton's ranks and into Obama's, while 7% have taken the reverse path, switching from Obama to Clinton.

1. and the long string of SD's waiting in the wings would agree

with this assessment. It will be interesting to see the next set of numbers, especially to see what Union households think about Mr. Penn still being a part of HRC's campaign.

Thanks for sharing this.

5. I'd say this pretty much follows the trend here on DU too.

I certainly see quite a few moving from Clinton or undecided to Obama and maybe have seen one or two move to Clinton.

6. Those are big numbers.

People are really switching which in my view is good news overall because it means that people are actually caring about how things are with the candidates rather than being single issue voters.
