New National Poll: Dean 20, Clark 13, Lieb. 8, Kerry 7, Gep. 7, MB 4
Edited on Fri Jan-09-04 07:07 PM by HFishbine
(Previous poll 11/19)

Dean: 20 (18)
Clark: 13 (14)
Lieberman: 8 (10)
Kerry: 7 (8)
Gephardt: 7 (9)
Moseley Braun: 4 (3)
Edwards: 4 (3)
Kucinich: 3 (2)
Sharpton: 2 (2)

Someone else: 5 (6)
Not Sure: 27 (25)

http://www.pollingreport.com/wh04dem.htm

Sample is very, very small for a national poll, 319 registered dems. No MOE is provided.

ON EDIT, more information on the same poll, different source:

- If the election were held today, voters would support Bush over Missouri Rep. Dick Gephardt by 26 points, Massachusetts Sen. John Kerry by 22 points, former Vermont Gov. Howard Dean by 21 points, and retired Gen. Wesley Clark by 20 points.

- When asked whether Bush or Clark would do a better job handling a foreign crisis such as Iraq, 50 percent say Bush and 30 percent say Clark. When matched against Dean on handling a foreign crisis, 57 percent would trust Bush to do a better job and 25 percent say Dean.

- Two-thirds of Democrats today (67 percent) say they would prefer their party's presidential nominee be a candidate who opposed the Bush tax cuts, up from 55 percent six months ago.

- And on Iraq, 65 percent of Democrats now say they would prefer a candidate who opposed going to war, up from 56 percent in June.

- Are we safer with Saddam behind bars? The public is unclear, with 46 percent saying the capture of Saddam made the United States safer and 46 percent disagreeing.

- About a quarter (26 percent) think Saddam will provide interrogators with information about weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, but two-thirds (67 percent) think it is unlikely he will.

900 registered voters nationwide with a margin of error of ±3 percentage points.

15. MOE is about 5-6%
You can always get a pretty good approximation to the MOE by calculating 1/sqrt(N) where N is the number of people polled.

8. I like what Clark said about polls on one of the debates
When asked about his standing in polls, he answered, "I don't pay attention to polls, unless they make me look good."

12. Can't find that at Polling Report
Edited on Fri Jan-09-04 07:05 PM by bain_sidhe
Are you sure you have the right link?

The top (most recent) poll I can find on Polling Report has

Whoops! Never mind... Refreshing the browser helped. The FOX News/Opinion Dynamics Poll. Jan. 7-8, 2004. N=319 registered Democrats nationwide, right?

13. FOX NEWS CHANNEL
I thought I saw those same numbers under a FOX News Channel poll that just came out today. That would make the poll even more suspect then it already is with 319 democrats.

22. But on the bright side
no one voted for Bush! Clearly, 100% of those asked will vote for anyone but Bush, so isn't that a good thing?

24. Chalk it up to my laziness
But the "Not Sure" category was actually "Not Sure/Wouldn't Vote."
