Sanders ahead of Clinton in New Hampshire poll
Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) holds a narrow lead over Hillary Clinton in the early-voting New Hampshire primary, according to a Fox News poll released Wednesday.
Sanders garners 45 percent support, to 44 percent for Clinton. The difference between them is well within the survey’s 5.5 percent margin of error.
{mosads}Sanders has a much more comfortable lead among young people in the Granite State poll, carrying the under-45 vote with 59 percent, to 30 percent for Clinton.
Older voters represent a major voting bloc for the former secretary of State, who carries the over-45 vote by 52 percent to 35 percent.
In hypothetical match-ups against Republicans, the poll shows that Clinton would lose in New Hampshire against Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush and Ben Carson.
However, she would defeat businessman Donald Trump and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) in the state, and draw even with businesswoman Carly Fiorina.
The Fox News poll sampled 804 registered voters in New Hampshire from Nov. 15–17. It has a 5.5 percent margin of error.
