Ruh-roh, Scooby. The latest poll from Public Policy Polling of New Hampshire voters is bad news for Hillary Clinton:
Clinton's fav with primary voters in NH is 78/10, compared to 86/10 in January 2014. Uncertainty up, not negatives: http://t.co/SCMdXlp7a8

And before Media Matters spins this away, this drop includes independents, which makes it relevant:
On the Democratic side Hillary Clinton has one of her weaker recent polling performances, getting 45% to 23% for Elizabeth Warren, 12% for Bernie Sanders, 7% for Joe Biden, 3% for Martin O’Malley, and 1% each for Lincoln Chafee and Jim Webb.
Part of that is a function of so many voters in Democratic primaries in New Hampshire not actually being Democrats- 36% are independents. Among Democrats Clinton gets 52%, pretty comparable to what we’ve been finding for her nationally and in other states recently. But it’s a much tighter race among all those independents- Clinton gets 31% to 28% for Warren, 12% for Biden, and 11% for Sanders with them.
More from PPP:
Clinton is actually at 52% with D's in NH, consistent with our recent polling other places. But a lot lower with I's: http://t.co/SCMdXl7wiA

As for the GOP, PPP finds Scot Walker in the lead:
The key to Walker's strength in NH is appeal across ideological lines- leads with both conservatives and moderates: http://t.co/SCMdXl7wiA

Interesting: Walker leads NH GOP trial heat with BOTH Tea Party types (32-25 over Cruz) & non-Tea Party (22-13 over Bush) in new @ppppolls

@ppppolls NH GOP primary poll is terrible news for @JebBush. Rather than a safe haven after Iowa, NH could be his undoing. Still early but..

And Gov. Christie is basically a goner:
When we last did a big NH GOP poll in January 2014 Chris Christie was first at 24%. Now tied for 5th at 8%: http://t.co/SCMdXlp7a8
