CT Presidential Poll: Obama ahead by 21 points. Senator Lieberman would be drag on GOP ticket.

A just released Quinnipiac University Poll shows Democratic Presidential candidate Sen. Barack Obama [IL] "Crushing" GOP Presidential Candidate Sen. John McCain [AZ] if the election were held today.

"Illinois Sen. Barack Obama crushes Arizona Sen. John McCain 56 - 35 percent among Connecticut likely voters, topping the Republican among every sub-group except Republican voters." according to a Quinnipiac University poll.

A look at the Hampton Primary results show that if the combined party votes were transfered to a preference for the Party nominee the result would be 66% for Obama and 34% for McCain. This result may be different when unaffiliated voters are factored in. Unaffiliated voters did not have the opportunity to show a preference on Primary day. Democratic Voter turnout outnumbered Republicans 2:1 in this election. Will it be the same in November? Time will tell.
