Twenty-two percent (22%) of Democratic voters nationwide say that Hillary Clinton should drop out of the race for the Democratic Presidential nomination. However, the latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey found that an identical number-22%--say that Barack Obama should drop out.
A solid majority of Democrats, 62%, aren't ready for either candidate to leave the race. Nationally, Clinton and Obama are running essentiallyeven among Likely Democratic Primary Voters in the Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll.
Forty-seven percent (47%) of Obama supporters think Clinton should drop out. Thirty-eight percent (38%) of Clinton supporters say Obama should dropout. Those who remain undecided are a bit more likely to suggest that Obama should leave. But, it's worth noting that less than half of Obama supporterssay Clinton should withdraw, less than half of Clinton supporters say Obama should withdraw, and less than half of undecided voters say either should withdrawat this time.
Clinton leads Obama in Pennsylvania while Obama leads Clinton in North Carolina. New polling released today show that both candidates have lost ground in Missouri to Republican John McCain over the past month.
Interestingly, Republicans are more eager to see Clinton drop out rather than Obama. Forty-one percent (41%) of GOP voters say the former FirstLady should withdraw while just 24% say the same about the Senator from Illinois. Among unaffiliated voters, 30% say Clinton should drop out while 25% say thesame about Obama.
Six percent (6%) of Democrats would like both Clinton and Obama to drop out of the race.
The national telephone survey also found that 85% of all Democrats-and 87% of all voters-believe it is at least somewhat likely the Democraticnomination will remain unresolved until the Democratic convention in August. Fifty-two percent (52%) of all Democrats believe that a decision at the conventionis Very Likely.
Forty-seven percent (47%) of all voters say that Barack Obama would be the stronger general election candidate against John McCain. Thirty-fivepercent (35%) say Clinton would provide the bigger challenge. Among Democratic voters, 47% say Obama would be the stronger candidate while 42% say Clinton.Both Democrats currently trail John McCain nationally in the Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll.
Fifty-four percent (54%) of all voters say that Obama is likely to win the nomination. Twenty-four percent (24%) say Clinton is the likely nomineewhile 22% are not sure. Among Democrats 52% expect Obama to win while 28% say Clinton.
