Poll shows support for Hillary Clinton is still strong in Iowa

Hillary Clinton

A Quinnipiac University poll released Thursday shows that Hillary Clinton's recent scandals haven't harmed her image in the eyes of Iowa Democrats.

The poll, which surveyed 692 likely participants in Iowa's Democratic caucuses, found that 60 percent of respondents would back Clinton in the vote. That's only a one percent decrease from a Quinnipiac poll that surveyed respondents prior to the revelation that Clinton used a private email for government work. Fifteen percent of respondents in the new poll, meanwhile, indicated support for Bernie Sanders.
