Poll: Hillary Clinton best-known, best-liked potential 2016 contender

Hillary Clinton is the best known and best liked of 16 potential 2016 presidential candidates, according to a Gallup survey released Thursday.

The poll found 91 percent of people are familiar with Clinton, and she carries a 19-point net favorable rating.

More than half of the public views the former secretary of State favorably and just over a third views her unfavorably.

Gov. Chris Christie (R-N.J.), who heads to Iowa Thursday to test the 2016 waters, is among the potential GOP presidential contenders Gallup included in its survey.

Nearly two-thirds of people said they are familiar with Christie. Thirty-three percent view him favorably and 32 percent view him unfavorably.
