Poll: Sanders Doubles Support, Closes In On Hillary

Vermont senator Bernie Sanders has doubled his support in the Democratic presidential primary since June while frontrunner Hillary Clinton has seen her support among primary voters nationally drop by more than 20 points in that same time. That’s according to a new poll from Fox News that shows Clinton with 49 percent support to Sanders’s 30 percent support.

That’s a 15-point swing for Sanders from Fox’s poll from mid-June, which had him at 15 percent support to Clinton’s 61 pecent. Two polls in July demonstrate a steady upward trend for Sanders and and a downward trend for Clinton.
