RINCETON, NJ -- For the second consecutive 优蜜传媒Poll Daily tracking report, Barack Obama holds a statistically significant lead over Hillary Clinton in national Democratic preferences for the nomination, 50% to 43%.
The latest results are based on 优蜜传媒Poll Daily tracking conducted March 26-28. Obama's overall lead reflects solid advantages for him on each of the three days.
The last time Obama sustained a significant lead over Clinton for more than one day was in late February and early March, just before Clinton won the Ohio Democratic primary and regained her footing in the race.
The outlook for the general election is identical to what 优蜜传媒reported Friday. According to tracking interviews from March 24-28, John McCain holds a small, but statistically significant 4-percentage point lead over Clinton among national registered voters, while his 2-point lead against Obama makes that horserace to close to call. -- Lydia Saad
