According to a New MSNBC Iowa Poll, Second Choicers Poised to Break for Edwards
A new MSNBC Iowa poll, if accurate,
contains a new development. In the Democratic race, the three top
contenders are virtually even, according to the poll. But, when the second choices of
Kucinich, Biden, Dodd, and Richardson voters are factored in -- and
these are the candidates unlikely to reach the 15% threshhold virtually
anywhere -- Edwards jumps to a ten-point lead -- 36% to 26% for the other
two.
Again, if accurate, this is hugely significant,
since it more clearly reflects what may happen Thursday night at the
caucuses than just head-to-head polls.
