Too many undecideds. I think it's pretty clear Clinton will win NH regardless.

There's no way Huckabee trails by only two points here.

Not a useful poll.  It reminds me of those early 2008 polls that showed Barack Obama up 42-41 or so in North Dakota and South Dakota... he ended up losing those two states 54-46 or so.

Rand Paul could maybe be competitive with Hillary in NH, but the other results of this thread are laughable. New Englanders have never, and will never, vote for a southerner.

Not exactly a strong showing for Hillary.

Too many undecideds.

What? Bill Clinton won every New England state, twice.

[Skill and Chance]

I could see NH behaving a lot like Colorado if Hillary runs.  NH was well right of the nation in 1992.  The only ridiculous numbers in this poll are with Huckabee, who should be radioactive in the NH.

Wow, wishful thinking on your part.

Talk about missing the context - it was a solidly Republican state until '92. Arguably the only reason Clinton edged it was because he personally played well there (it's where "the Comeback Kid" comes from). He won it by a decent margin in '96, and Hillary won the primary.

The only other Dartmouth poll I found on here was from April '12 and had Romney +2 when similarly-timed polling had Obama up by high single-digits or more. And having both candidates in the thirties is just not realistic unless Perot's running again.  

[IceSpear]

This poll is junk for several reasons

a) Way too many undecideds.
b) Dartmouth said that both McCain and Romney would carry NH.
c) There's no way in hell Obama has a 28% favorability rating in NH. This isn't Wyoming or Utah.

Do you consider Kentucky a Midwestern state or...?

[GaussLaw]

Not the best poll, but I do think Rand is one of the stronger 2016 GOP candidates, unlike Cruz.  Paul has much more goodwill with younger folks and can bridge the libertarian/tea-party divide(which really isn't big) better than Cruz.

[windjammer]

Too many undecided.

But Rand Paul will definitely perform well here.
