New Hampshire Poll: Clinton +6 Hassan (D) +3 in Senate Race
According to a recent survey1, New Hampshire Governor Maggie Hassan leads U.S. Senator
Kelly Ayotte 47 – 44 percent in the race for Ayotte’s Senate seat. Hassan’s slim advantage is an
improvement since our most recent survey in July and comes despite a tightening of the Presidential
race in the state—which Hillary Clinton continues to lead over Donald Trump.
The following are key findings from the survey:
• Clinton continues to lead Trump; Johnson/Stein Winning Sizable Share of Vote. In a 4-
way contest for President, Democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton leads Republican Donald
Trump by a 43 – 37 percent margin, a slight narrowing of the race from July when Clinton
led 48 – 38 percent. Libertarian Gary Johnson (11 percent) and Green Jill Stein (4 percent)
are winning a real share of the vote, and perform particularly well among unaffiliated
voters—especially men—and voters under the age of 50.
In a two-way contest, Clinton leads Trump by the same margin, 46 – 40 percent, although
this is a slight deterioration from her 10-point lead in July.
We should note that roughly two-thirds of the poll were completed before Monday's presidential debate.
