Hillary Clinton keeps moving further from Bernie Sanders' reach. A new Gallup poll out Friday reveals the former secretary of state has further increased her favorability lead over the Vermont senator, rising 8 points from late September and early October to secure a 21-point lead in favorability.

Now, 76 percent of Democrats say they have a favorable opinion of Clinton, while only 18 percent say they don't, giving her a net positive of +58 points. Sanders' net favorability is +37 points, with 51 percent favorable and 14 percent unfavorable.
