Dem Primary Poll: Hillary Drops 10 Points

Published



A new national poll of Democrats and Democrat leaners finds Hillary Clinton with 42 percent support in her party’s presidential primary, down 10 points from a month ago and facing significant opposition from other candidates. The Monmouth University poll found Clinton, the former secretary of state, fell from 52 percent support last month, the first time she has failed to get a majority of Democrats in Monmouth’s poll.

Behind Clinton are Vice President Joe Biden, with 22 percent, and Vermont senator Bernie Sanders at 20 percent. Biden is not yet a declared candidate.
