Our CNN poll conducted by the University of New Hampshire of New Hampshire primary finds Joe Biden at 24%, Bernie Sanders at 19%, Elizabeth Warren at 19%, Pete Buttigieg at 10% and Kamala Harris at 9%. No other candidate gets above 2% in our poll.
The poll has mixed news for most of the candidates. At this point, there is no clear runaway leader in the Granite State. Yet, there are only five Democrats out of the field of over 20 who are even remotely competitive at this point.
Here are a few other takeaways from the poll:
- Warren and Sanders actually have the highest favorable ratings in the poll, but they are splitting self-identified liberals as Biden dominates with self-described moderates and conservatives.
- Backers of Warren and Sanders do differ in that Sanders' are more likely to lack a college degree, to be younger and to be registered as unaffiliated (i.e. independents).
- Most Democrats say they have not made up their mind, though historically the leader at this point in New Hampshire has gone on to win the nomination about 70% of the time.
- The male Democratic candidates are rated as much more "likable" than female candidates
- Donald Trump leads the Republican primary by nearly 80 points over Bill Weld.
