Indiana Polls: Democratic Primary
Huffington Post | April 3, 2008 05:23 PM

APRIL 15: A Bloomberg/LA Times poll to be released this afternoon shows similar results in Pennsylvania and North Carolina as last week. However, according to Ben Smith -- whose had a peek at the numbers -- Obama has taken a surprising lead of 5 in the state. The poll will be released soon.

UPDATE: Here's the poll:

Barack Obama: 40%
Hillary Clinton: 35%


An interesting note from the internals about the Rev. Wright controversy -- it may be that the scandal helped Obama (at least in Pennsylvania):

However, voters were asked about another controversy that has dogged the candidate in recent weeks: racially incendiary comments made by the Rev. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr., the now-retired pastor of Obama's church in Chicago. The furor prodded Obama to deliver a major speech on racial relations in America last month.

In Pennsylvania, the flap seems to have marginally helped Obama more than hurt him: 24% said his handling of the issue made them think more highly of him; 15% said it made them think less highly of him; 58% said it made no difference in their views.


APRIL 14: A SurveyUSA poll shows Hillary Clinton opening up her lead in Indiana, as Obama slips among men and youth voters:

Hillary Clinton: 55%
Barack Obama: 39%
Undecided: 3%


APRIL 8: An ARG poll shows Sen. Clinton has a single digit lead over Barack Obama:

Hillary Clinton: 53%
Barack Obama: 44%
Undecided: 2%


APRIL 4: A Research 2000 poll shows that the Democratic primary is very much up for grabs in Indiana:

Clinton: 49%
Obama: 46%


APRIL 1: A SurveyUSA poll has Clinton with a lead in Indiana, a state which is being billed as pivotal to Hillary's comeback strategy:

Clinton: 52%
Obama: 43%
Undecided: 2%
