Edwards surges in New Hampshire Hillary 31% Obama 27% Edwards 21%
http://politicalwire.com/

A new American Research Group poll in New Hampshire finds the Democratic presidential race tightening and the Republican race deadlocked.

Among Democrats, Sen. Hillary Clinton leads with 31% followed by Sen. Barack Obama at 27% and John Edwards at 21%. The poll has a margin of error of 4 points.

Key finding: Clinton has dropped 7 points in two weeks while Edwards has gained 6 points and Obama has gained 3 points. Undeclared voters provide positive playback for Edwards based on his television advertising running in New Hampshire and this is reflected in the ballot results. Edwards now leads Obama among undeclared voters 38% to 23%.

In the Republican race, Mitt Romney and Sen. John McCain remain tied at 30%, followed by Mike Huckabee at 11%, Rudy Giuliani at 9% and Rep. Ron Paul at 7%.

4. See My Post
But actually their N H results are more or less in line with other pollsters...

I wonder if a pollster would just look at what everybody else is doing and make up some numbers based on that...

3. Great news. Don't know how reliable the poll is - but this result is NOT unexpected.
Edwards will be right in the hunt in NH.

5. I wonder if people in these early primary states
aren't getting so tired of being polled they're throwing pollsters curve balls. If they read that Hillary is up in the morning paper, for instance, then get called in the afternoon, they give the pollster Edwards or Obama just for the hell of it?
