Sanders\/Biden<\/p>\n
I don’t put a lot of credence on political polls- the 2016 election is a prime example of skewed data and wishful thinking- but they can sort of show trends over time. Depends a lot on the agenda of those polling, and how the questions are phrased. Anyone who has taken a statistics class or two can ask you what you want to “prove” and make it look solid, ’cause numbers don’t lie. Statisticians do, however. Anyway, came across this gem today:<\/p>\n
By: JOSHUA CAPLAN<\/strong><\/p>\n Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) has surged past former Vice President Joe Biden to take first place in the key primary state of New Hampshire, according to a poll released Monday.<\/p>\n An NBC10 Boston\/Franklin Pierce University\/Boston Herald survey found Sanders has 29 percent support in New Hampshire, a jump of seven points in the same poll conducted earlier this month. Biden placed second with 22 percent, a drop of four points since the previous survey. Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) finished third place at 16 percent, while former South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg placed fourth with ten percent. Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-MM) came in fifth place with five percent.<\/p>\n The poll, between January 23 and 26, surveyed 407 \u201clikely\u201d Democrat primary voters and had a margin of error of 4.9 percent. It was conducted via telephone by RKM Research and Communications, NBC10 Boston, NECN, Telemundo Boston, Franklin Pierce University, and the Boston Herald.<\/p>\n The poll\u2019s release comes after a CNN survey published Sunday also showed Sanders had gained support in the Granite State.<\/p>\n \u201cOverall, 25% of likely Democratic primary voters back the Vermont senator, with former Vice President Joe Biden (16%), former South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg (15%) and Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren (12%) battling for second place. Behind these four, Minnesota Sen. Amy Klobuchar (6%), Hawaii Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (5%) and businessman Andrew Yang (5%) make up a third tier of candidates,\u201d CNN reported.<\/p>\n New Hampshire primary voters will head to the polls on February 11.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Bernie’s lead seems consistent over several polls and I’m sure has been giving the Dems fits. They managed to screw him out of the last Dem Primary to give the nomination to The One, who crashed and burned in a spectacular fashion. They wish to avoid a repeat by any means, and they know Bernie is unelectable. Be interesting to see what they plan to do about it this time. Stay tuned!
