Hillary Clinton Leads National Poll Released by CBS News/New York Times Poll

Here are the latest results from the CBS News National Polls poll by CBS News/New York Times Poll published on USAElectionPolls.com:

There were 508 voters polled on 1/9-12.

Quote:

Clinton’s win in New Hampshire was due in part to strong support from women, while men in New Hampshire chose Obama. However, nationally, Clinton not only has a sizable lead among women, by 43 percent to Obama’s 27 percent, but she also maintains a 11 point lead over Obama among men.

However, Obama has gained ground among voters under age 45 and black voters. With black voters, Obama is now the clear choice, leading Clinton 49 percent to 34 percent. In a CBS News Poll conducted last August, the two candidates ran about even among blacks. Obama leads Clinton among both black men and black women.

Although Clinton now outruns Obama among voters under age 45 by eight points, her lead is shrinking. In December, she led among this group by 20 points. She leads Obama by 20 points among voters age 45 and older, and has increased her lead since last month.

Partisanship also plays a factor in the race. Those who identify themselves as Democrats favor Clinton by a wide margin, while independents who intend to vote in a Democratic primary are more closely divided.

There is also still room for movement in the Democratic race. Fifty-seven of Democratic primary voters say their minds are made up, but 43 percent say it’s too soon to say for sure. Neither of the top two candidates enjoys firm support - 39 percent of Clinton’s voters say their minds could change, as do 43 percent of Obama’s.
