Rassmussen Calls Barack Obama Frontrunner

Filed Under Barack Obama, Election 2008, Hillary Clinton

Barack Obama “may now be considered the frontrunner for the nomination,” reports Rasmussen Reports today.

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Monday shows that Hillary Clinton’s national polling lead has collapsed. Before the Iowa caucuses, Clinton held a seventeen-point lead over Barack Obama. Today, that lead is down to four percentage points in a survey with a four-point margin of sampling error.

In the race for the Democratic Presidential Nomination, it’s now Clinton 33%, Barack Obama 29% and John Edwards 20% (see recent daily numbers). Next update Tuesday at 11:00 a.m. Eastern. RasmussenMarkets.com data suggests that Obama may now be considered the frontrunner for the nomination.

I’ll probably get excited about the GOP race later on in the year, but for now, the fun and excitement is all within the Democratic primaries.
