*Poll: Sanders leads Clinton by 20 in NH, The Hill, Feb. 4, 2016

Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders leads rival Hillary Clinton by 20 points in New Hampshire, according to a new NBC News/Wall Street/Marist poll released Thursday.

In the poll — conducted entirely after the Iowa caucuses in which Clinton won by a razor-thin margin — Sanders receives 58 percent support from likely Democratic primary voters. Clinton gets 38 percent support.
The same poll conducted last week showed very similar numbers, with Sanders receiving 57 percent and Clinton 38 percent.

Sanders has huge leads with young people and independents, the poll found.
Among independents, he garners 69 percent to Clinton's 26 percent. And with people ages 18-29, Sanders gets 76 percent, with Clinton at 24 percent. Among women, Sanders has a slight lead, with 50 percent support to Clinton's 46 percent.

The poll was conducted Feb 2-3 with 567 likely Democratic primary voters. It has a margin of error of 4.1 percent.
It reflects similar numbers to the RealClearPolitics average of polls in New Hampshire, which show Sanders with an 18.2 point lead over Clinton.
Sanders has 56 percent in the poll aggregation, compared to Clinton's 37.8 percent.

1. Don't be discouraged if/when it tightens up. He needs a win, not a blowout.

3. a few days ago in Camp

Weathervane, a DUer posted that if she lost NH by less than 30 pts. it's a win. (For her.) The right-wing reality deniers would be proud.

2. Let us not get complacent. A massive landslide in NH is just what we need to propel us forward to

Nevada. We need to operate as if we are 10 points behind in the polls and keep phone banking, canvassing, and registering voters. Keep up the good work everyone!!!

5. Great, New Hampshire!

Don't get complacent; give Hillary a humiliating defeat.

7. I wonder if it's happening in other states.
