"Clinton leads Sanders by 12 points — 51 percent to 39 percent among Democratic and Democratic-leaning voters across the country."

"Last week, in the final days leading up to the Iowa caucus, 72 percent of Democrats said that regardless of whom they supported in their state’s primary or caucus, Clinton would be the eventual nominee. A quarter said Sanders would win the eventual nomination. This week, that opinion is largely unchanged after the close contest in Iowa—where Clinton barely edged out Sanders."
