Clinton, Obama in Virtual Tie Among Democrats
Illinois Senator Barack Obama (D) formally announced his plans to run for President and instantly finds himself near the top of the
heap. A Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey of 401 Likely Democratic Primary Voters finds that 22% favor New York
Senator Hillary Clinton (D) while 21% prefer Obama. Obama has consistently been in second place in several Rasmussen
Reports polls, but this is the first time he has been in a virtual tie with the former First Lady.

Senator Hillary Clinton (D) while 21% prefer Obama. Obama has consistently been in second place in several Rasmussen

sampling error and was conducted January 8-11, 2007.
Former North Carolina Senator John Edwards (D) remains in
third place attracting 15% of the vote. Edwards announced his
candidacy shortly before the New Year began. Former Vice
President Al Gore (D) attracts 7% of the vote. The Democrats’
2004 nominee, Senator John Kerry of Massachusetts, attracts
4% of the vote as does Delaware Senator Joe Biden (D). No
other Democrat tops 2% at this time.
Obama leads Clinton among Democrats under 50, but trails
among older Democrats. The next update of Democratic
Primary Polling is scheduled for Monday, January 22.
Both Obama and Clinton fare well in most General Election
match-ups against Republicans, but both trail GOP frontrunners
John McCain and Rudy Giuliani. See a summary of how all the
Democratic contenders match-up with various Republican
opponents along with constantly updated favorability ratings.
