New Iowa Poll Gives Leads to Clinton, Romney

A new American Research Group poll in Iowa continues to be an outlier among the various public surveys that have been released this week.

On Democratic side, Sen. Hillary Clinton leads with 31%, followed by John Edwards and Barack Obama at 24% each.

Key findings: 46% of Clinton supporters say Edwards is their second choice and 23% say Obama. 32% of Edwards supporters say Obama is their second choice, followed by Richardson at 19% and Clinton at 18%. 55% of Obama supporters say Edwards is their second choice, followed by 24% for Clinton.

On the Republican side, Mitt Romney leads with 32% support, followed by Mike Huckabee at 23%, and Sen. John McCain at 11%.

Key findings: Romney now leads McCain among no party voters 43% to 22%. Romney also appears to be consolidating the anti-Huckabee support. Support for Huckabee remains the weakest as only 60% of Huckabee supporters say they will definitely vote for Huckabee on Janurary 3.

For both parties, 21% of respondents say they could change their minds between now and the caucuses next week.

Other surveys this week -- from Research 2000, LAT/Bloomberg and Strategic Vision -- have all shown a much tighter race on the Democratic side and Huckabee leading the GOP race.
