The Big Number: 4
American Research Group (R) released polls in 8 states just after The Hotline's deadline today. In each state, 600 likely primary voters of each party were surveyed; margin of error +/- 4%.
As further prrof that the Dem primary is coalescing less around its front-runners than the GOP primary, no fewer than 4 Dems lead in different states. Sure, Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-NY) takes the lion's share of states and the only other winners take their home states (save a tie in MI), but at least other candidates are leading. On the GOP side, only 2 front-runners lead among the 8 states polled [REID WILSON].
