Gallup: Obama Increases Lead To 10

By Justin Gardner | Related entries in 2008 Election, Barack, Democrats, Hillary, Polls

Good trending for Barack going into the middle of the week.

Today’s 10 percentage point spread, based on Gallup Poll Daily tracking from April 6-8, is only the second time since January that Obama has achieved a double-digit lead over Clinton, the first being his 10-point lead in interviewing conducted March 27-29.

Although Obama’s lead was much narrower at several points recently in the campaign, Clinton has not led Obama by any amount since March 18-20.

More tomorrow…
