Bernie Sanders Up 22 Points in NH; 10 in Iowa

    Bernie Sanders has taken a commanding 22 point lead over Hillary Clinton in New Hampshire according to newly released polls.  The same poll also shows Sanders lead swelling to 10 point in the state of Iowa.    

    The new poll finds Sen. Sanders with 52% support among Democratic primary voters in New Hampshire, while former Secretary of State Clinton, long considered the front-runner for the 2016 Democratic nomination, receives 30%. Recent polls have shown Sanders’ lead growing in the Granite State, but this would be the first to show the Vermont Senator over 50%.

    Possibly more worrying for the Clinton campaign is her performance in Iowa, where Sanders now leads by 10 points, with 43% to Clinton’s 33%.

    Until recently Clinton had retained an edge in Iowa, the other first-in-the-nation voting state along with New Hampshire. A recent CNN/ORC poll found the pair tied among likely Iowa caucus voters.

    Clinton’s campaign continues to struggle with messaging and managing her command that is surprisingly reminiscent of Clinton’s 2007-2008 campaign.

    All of this is problematic for Clinton as newly released polls in the last few days show Clinton losing to Donald Trump in a head to head poll.
