Zogby: Hillary Loses to McCain
Wednesday, February 13, 2008
Barack Obama has gained strength in prospective general election match-ups
against Republicans John McCain and Mike Huckabee, while Hillary Clinton
does not fare as well, a new nationwide Zogby Interactive poll shows.
The online survey shows that Obama would defeat both McCain and Huckabee,
while Clinton would lose to McCain and only defeat Huckabee by a small
margin.
Clinton struggles among political independents, trailing McCain by a wide
margin and Huckabee by a slim margin in that demographic, the survey shows.
Against both men, she wins less than 80% of her own party. However, she does
better among Democrats than either McCain or Huckabee does among
Republicans. Huckabee wins just 70% support in a match-up against Clinton,
while McCain wins 72% of the GOP support against her.
Obama has much stronger Democratic Party support, winning 87% backing of the
Democrats when pitted against Huckabee, and 84% of the Democratic support
against McCain. Among independents, Obama leads McCain by a 46% to 33% edge
and Huckabee by a 48% to 31% advantage.
Among men, Obama narrowly loses to McCain but narrowly leads Huckabee. Among
women, he leads both Republicans by margins that are wider than the
advantage Clinton enjoys over McCain and Huckabee. However, Clinton loses to
both McCain and Huckabee among men.
Obama held wides leads over the GOPers among younger voters. Among older
voters, Obama held a narrow lead over Huckabee, but trailed McCain. Clinton
led Huckabee and McCain among younger voters, but trailed them both among
voters age 65 and older.
The online survey included 7,468 likely voters nationwide. It was conducted
Feb. 8-11, 2008, and carries a margin of error of +/- 1.2 percentage points.
