I know this is an unscientific method of measuring voter support. But still, a very interesting and timely measure indicating the upward direction of increased Sanders support in Iowa. In days to come, following Bernie's victories in New Hampshire and Iowa, we can look back to this State Fair poll and observe this was a harbinger of the sea change in HRC's prospects, and not in a good way for her.
