As of 10:40 pm EST, Clark has eased into third, but I think four tickets get punched coming out of the Granite State. Joe Lieberman has slipped under 9%. He
ought to quit but he's going to slog on another week, at least.
Speaking of next week, let's look ahead to the states of Arizona, Delaware, Missouri, Oklahoma, South Carolina, New Mexico and North Dakota (all these numbers courtesy Survey USA):
SC as of 1/27:
Edwards 32%
Clark 17%
Dean 16%
Kerry 13%
Sharpton 10%
Lieberman 5%
Kucinich 1%
Undecided 5%
Edwards' first win. Could be in convincing fashion. Note the Reverend Al's lead over Joementum.
AZ, as of 1/27:
Kerry 30%
Clark 24%
Dean 23%
Lieberman 10%
Edwards 7%
Other 3%
Undecided 2%
Could be the closest battle. Edwards missing his IA bounce.
OK, as of 1/23:
Clark 32%
Edwards 23%
Kerry 17%
Dean 10%
Lieberman 8%
Other 7%
Undecided 5%
Clark's first win.
MO and
DE results still include Gephardt in two-week-old numbers; Lieberman is claiming Delaware as a breakthrough in the win column and Missouri awaits its favorite son's endorsement. I don't see him giving it to Howard Dean.
NM is Clark Country;
ND leans Kerry.
Note also the low percentage of undecideds compared to Iowa and Hew Hampshire.
Despite the duplicate exacta finish in IA and NH, this is a four-horse race to the South and West.
It's
reallly going to be interesting
next Tuesday. :wink:
