Bernie Sanders Overtakes Hillary Clinton in Latest Iowa Poll, Continues Leading in NH

Bernie Sanders has taken a narrow lead over Hillary Clinton in Iowa more than four months before the state’s caucus, according to a poll released Thursday.

The Vermont senator is favorite among 41% of Iowa likely Democratic particpaints, compared with 40% supporting the former Secretary of State, according to a Quinnipiac poll released Thursday. That marks a major reversal from early July, when Clinton was ahead of Sanders, 52% to 33%...

Sanders is also polling ahead of Clinton in New Hampshire, the second Democratic nominating contest.

Yes!! Go Bernie!! I'm sure that the mainstream media will attempt to minimize this poll as mere statistical noise, but to me, it's the sign of something really great to come. It shows that the momentum for Bernie Sanders is growing, and that he definitely hasn't hit his ceiling.

Hopefully wins for Bernie in Iowa and New Hampshire will generate enough momentum to make him competitive on Super Tuesday.

touted. And if Bernie continues to gain in the polls, the polls will be deemed pointless.
