Dean Leads Dem Hopefuls in New York State; Top Five Would All Best Bush in ’04, New Zogby Poll Reveals

<snip>
Former Vermont Governor Dr. Howard Dean enjoys a large lead (21 – 10%) over retired General Wesley Clark in polling of likely Democratic primary voters in New York State. Massachusetts Senator John Kerry and Missouri Congressman Richard Gephardt are tied at 7%.

Polling of 329 likely Democratic primary voters was conducted coincidentally with statewide voters of all parties on November 12-15, and has a margin of error of +/- 5.5 percentage points.

Civic rights activist Rev. Al Sharpton and Connecticut Senator Joseph Lieberman each received 6% of the Democrats polled. Former Illinois Senator Carol Mosley Braun, North Carolina Senator John Edwards, and Ohio Congressman Dennis Kucinich each received 1%.

In polling of all likely voters, President George W. Bush would lose New York State in the ’04 presidential race to Dean, 46-41%, to Gephardt, 48-38%, to Kerry 46-41%, to Lieberman, 49-41%, and to Clark, 45-40%. Democrats have a hefty edge in the Empire State, and in exit polling for the 2000 presidential race, Democrats outnumbered Republicans, 45% - 28%, with 27% saying they were Independent.

Unfortunately...Giuliani would also best Schumer:

If the race for New York State’s senior U.S. Senate seat was held today, former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, a Republican, would beat the incumbent Democrat Charles Schumer, 52 – 43%. The actual contest, with no declared candidates at this point, will be in November 2004. The poll of 706 likely voters in New York State was conducted November 12-15 by Zogby International, and has a margin of error of +/- 3.8 percentage points.
