Entrance polls: Nevada caucus-goers split on Obama policies
WASHINGTON (AP) — About 4 in 10 Nevada Democratic caucus-goers said they want the next president to be more liberal than the current one, while about half want a continuation of President Barack Obama's policies, according to early results of an entrance poll of Democratic voters arriving at caucus sites in Nevada.
The top issues named by early arrivals at the Nevada caucuses were the economy, followed by income inequality and then health care, according to the entrance poll.
About half of early arrivals at Nevada caucus sites said they think the next president should generally continue President Barack Obama's policies, while about 4 in 10 said they want the next president to have more liberal policies.
The survey was conducted for AP and the television networks by Edison Research as voters arrived at 25 randomly selected sites for Democratic caucuses in Nevada.
The survey had a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 5 percentage points, with higher margins of error for subgroups.
