Google News Democratic Primary Poll for 11/02/2003
This Week (11/2) | Last Week (10/24) | ||||||
1 | John Kerry | 5750 | 18.4% | +2.9 | 3 | 5120 | 15.5% |
2 | Howard Dean | 5630 | 18.0% | -1.0 | 1 | 6280 | 19.0% |
3 | Wesley Clark | 4380 | 14.0% | -3.4 | 2 | 5730 | 17.3% |
4 | John Edwards | 3960 | 12.6% | +0.8 | 4 | 3900 | 11.8% |
5 | Joe Lieberman | 3620 | 11.6% | +1.4 | 5 | 3340 | 10.1% |
6 | Dick Gephardt | 3010 | 9.6% | -0.3 | 6 | 3260 | 9.9% |
7 | Dennis Kucinich | 2110 | 6.7% | -0.2 | 7 | 2280 | 6.9% |
8 | Al Sharpton | 1730 | 5.5% | -0.6 | 8 | 2010 | 6.1% |
9 | Carol Moseley Braun | 1130 | 3.6% | +0.2 | 9 | 1120 | 3.4% |
Whoa! I don't know what has resulted in the sudden dramatic rise in Kerry's media share. It might be the increased attacks by him on Dean, but Gephardt has been making similar attacks and his share continues to drop (this despite the fact that many people believe Gephardt has a better chance of defeating Dean than Kerry does). Wesley Clark's assault on Dean continues to fade as well.
So Dean continues to be the #1 story. It remains to be seen who will win the battle for #2.
