MSNBC/McClatchy Poll: Edwards has most 2nd choice support among 2nd tier candidates

[Herman Munster]

If this pattern holds, he will win unless Hillary or Obama turn their people out in unexpected numbers.

The second tier is particularly important in Iowa's Democratic caucuses, where a candidate can win delegates only if they register at least 15 percent support in each town hall-like precinct meeting. Voters whose candidates don't make that threshold can support someone else.

As of now, that appears to help Edwards.

If all second-tier Democratic candidates fall short and their supporters switch to other candidates, Edwards gains the most, rolling up a clear lead at 33 percent to 26 percent each for Clinton and Obama.
