New Hampshire remains a Sanders stronghold

[Playinghardball]

Washington (CNN)—Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders continues to hold a lead over Hillary Clinton in New Hampshire, the state set to host the nation's first primary next February.

The latest CNN/WMUR poll of New Hampshire's likely Democratic primary voters tells a different story than that of national and Iowa polling, where Clinton holds double-digit leads.

The poll finds 50% of likely Democratic primary voters in New Hampshire back Sanders, 40% Clinton, 1% former Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley.

Sanders has continued to make gains in terms of favorability, with 83% of likely Democratic primary voters saying they have a positive impression of the Vermont senator, up from 78% in September and above the 68% with a positive view of Clinton and 26% who say they have a favorable take on O'Malley.
