Showing Original Post only (View all)PPP poll: Hillary leads Bernie 63% to 13% [View all]
Surprisingly, this only seemed to get one mention on DU last week, as far as I can tell, in a thread that led with the headline about the Republican race. But it seems very relevant to DU, so, here it is (poll taken a week after he announced):
Q2 Do you have a favorable or unfavorable opinion of Hillary Clinton?
Favorable 74%
Unfavorable 21%
Not sure 5%
Q4 Do you have a favorable or unfavorable opinion of Bernie Sanders?
Favorable 38%
Unfavorable 26%
Not sure 36%
(Democrats) Given the choices of Lincoln Chafee, Hillary Clinton, Martin OMalley, Bernie Sanders, and Jim Webb who would you most like to see as the Democratic candidate for President in 2016?
Lincoln Chafee 5%
Hillary Clinton 63%
Martin O'Malley 2%
Bernie Sanders 13%
Jim Webb 6%
Not sure 11%
