Poll finds Clinton with dominant lead in Iowa
By Kevin Cirilli
Fifty-four percent of Iowa Democrats support Clinton, according to a Suffolk University Poll released Tuesday.
That's 34 percentage points more than the 20 percent who back Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.). Vice President Biden, who has not announced his candidacy, got 11 percent, while former Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley (D) garnered 4 percent.
The remaining percentage of voters were either undecided or supportive of other candidates.
“There is a fierce loyalty to Hillary Clinton among likely Democratic caucus-goers in Iowa,” Suffolk University pollster David Paleologos said in a statement.
Seventy-six percent of Iowa Democrats say that Clinton did not break the law when she opted to use a private email server; 9 percent say she did break the law; 15 percent are unsure, according to the poll.
“Despite reports suggesting her vulnerability, these Democratic voters say they don’t believe she broke the law,” Paleologos said in a statement. “They are sticking by her in large numbers, even though a majority believes the email scandal will hurt her in the general election.”
