The disapproval rate was 51 percent, the highest ever recorded in the Newsweek Poll.
Among all Democratic contenders vying for the nomination as the party's presidential candidate, Dean edges Clark with 16 percent of the vote among registered Democrats and Democratic leaners; Clark gets 15 percent, the poll shows. Gephardt follows with 9 percent of the vote; then 8 percent for Lieberman; Kerry and former Illinois Sen. Carol Moseley Brown each get 7 percent of the vote, then North Carolina Sen. John Edwards gets 6 percent of the vote. After the drop from Clark to Gephardt, all of the other candidates are separated by from one another by less than the margin of error.
For this Newsweek Poll, Princeton Survey Research Associates interviewed 1,002 adults aged 18 and older on November 6-7, 2003. The margin of error is plus or minus 3 percentage points. This poll is part of the November 17 issue of Newsweek (on newsstands Monday, November 10).
