These are the numbers for the latest Gallup Poll.
The latest Gallup Poll, conducted Aug. 13-16, 2007, finds public support for the Democratic nomination at 48% for Clinton and 25% for Obama, giving Clinton a 23-point lead. Support for former North Carolina senator John Edwards, in third place with 13%, is similar to what he has received since May.
The remaining candidates are in the 1-2% range.
Gallup also examines Karl Rove’s remarks about Hillary. Shorter version: Unfavorables this early and particularly in Hillary’s case may not mean much. They also said:
It is notable that Giuliani stands as the most positively rated 2008 presidential candidate in terms of favorable ratings at 59% (with a 27% unfavorable rating), but still does not beat Clinton in a trial heat “if the election were held today”.
