Bernie Sanders is surging in a fresh batch of new polls

Bernie Sanders is surging in a fresh batch of new polls
Maxwell Tani
Business Insider

A new CNN/ORC poll released on Monday showed Sanders with the biggest leap among any candidate in the 2016 field. And a new poll in the first-in-the-nation primary state of New Hampshire found him slightly expanding his lead there over former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

In Monday's CNN poll, Sanders garnered 29% support nationally, up 5% from a similar CNN poll released a month ago.

And in New Hampshire, a new Franklin Pierce University/Boston Herald poll found Sanders with an 8-point lead over Clinton in the state. That was up a point from the last FPU/Boston Herald poll, and his lead increases to 10 points without Vice President Joe Biden in the survey.

For her part, Clinton's summer downslide in polls appears to be leveling off. In the first major poll released following last week's debate, a Suffolk University/Boston Globe poll of New Hampshire Democrats found Clinton taking a slight lead in the Granite State for the first time in several months. In that poll, 37% of Democratic voters said they'd support Clinton, compared with 35% who support Sanders.

were pretty much spot on.

He was the clear winner of the debate and this is reflected in this new batch of polls depicting his surge upward.

Excellent!
