Hillary Clinton is still holding her leading in New Hampshire -- but it's dropping -- with just three days to go until New Hampshire voters go to the polls, according to a new 7NEWS/Suffolk University tracking poll released this morning.
In the Democratic Primary, Hillary Clinton (36 percent) leads Barack Obama (29 percent), John Edwards (13 percent), Bill Richardson (4 percent), Joe Biden (1 percent), Dennis Kucinich (1 percent), Mike Gravel (1 percent), and 12 percent were undecided.
Obama has climbed four points overnight and Hillary Clinton has dropped one.
Obama’s gains were most dramatic among young voters in New Hampshire who may have been energized by the Iowa win. Among likely voters ages 18-35 years, Obama led Clinton 44%-31%, compared to the previous tracking where he trailed Clinton 35%-31%.
In the Republican Primary, the 7NEWS/Suffolk University poll also shows Mitt Romney (30 percent) led John McCain (26 percent), while Iowa Caucus Republican winner Mike Huckabee and Rudy Giulianiwere tied for third at 11 percent. Other candidates receiving support were Ron Paul (8 percent), Fred Thompson (2 percent), and Duncan Hunter (1 percent). There were 10 percent undecided. This is the first time in nine consecutive polls that Rudy Giuliani has improved his numbers from a previous poll.
