1 ABC NEWS/WASHINGTON POST POLL: CAMPAIGN 2000, N.H. and National EMBARGOED FOR RELEASE AFTER 6:30 p.m. Thursday, Dec. 16, 1999 N.H. Voters Boost Insurgents But Does it Translate Nationally? Anti-establishment credentials have vaulted Bill Bradley and John McCain to very competitive positions in the New Hampshire presidential primaries but the Granite State's fondness for insurgents hasn't translated nationally for either candidate. Bradley has 48 percent support to Al Gore's 45 percent among likely Democratic primary voters in New Hampshire, but Gore leads nationally by 64 to 31 percent, two new polls by ABC News and The Washington Post have found. On the Republican side, McCain has 40 percent support to George W. Bush's 39 percent in New Hampshire. But Bush leads McCain nationally by 72 percent to 13 percent among Republicans and independents who lean toward the Republican Party. Vote Preference Democrats Republicans Bradley Gore McCain Bush New Hampshire 48% 45 40% 39 Nationally Some strategists speculate that strong showings in New Hampshire can boost McCain and Bradley in the weeks that follow. It's possible but not a sure bet: Six in 10 of Gore's primary backers nationally support him "strongly," as do seven in 10 of Bush's supporters. Both, especially Gore, have greater strength of support nationally than their opponents. GENERAL - If McCain and Bradley did manage to win their parties' nominations, it could make for an exciting general election race: Head to head nationally, they run even. A Gore/McCain race also is close, while Bush leads Gore by 16 points and Bradley by 20. National Trial Heats General Election Bush vs. Gore Bush vs. Bradley Gore vs. McCain Bradley vs. McCain These national trial heats are little changed, other than a better showing by McCain versus Gore. But there is movement beneath the surface for the national frontrunners, with Bush's leadership ratings weakening and Gore's improving; yet with Gore losing
2 ground in other personal qualities such as honesty and trustworthiness. The rough and tumble of campaigning may be dulling some of both candidates' luster. INDIES There's a structural difference in New Hampshire that's complicating life for Bush and Gore: Its primaries attract many more independent voters than usual for a state primary, and independents are Bradley's and especially McCain's biggest backers. McCain trails Bush by 12 points among self-identified Republicans, but leads him by 20 points among independents who plan to vote in the GOP primary. That's important because a third of likely Republican voters in New Hampshire say they're independents, same as it was in By contrast, in the seven-state 1996 Super Tuesday primaries three weeks later, just 19 percent of GOP voters were independents. New Hampshire independents also are important to Bradley, but less so. Among N.H. Likely Voters McCain Bush Bradley Gore Republicans 32% 44 Democrats Independents Independents LA DIFFERENCE There are other important differences in New Hampshire. For one thing, its voters are paying much closer attention to the election campaign, and more feel they know the candidates well. That's a more hopeful sign for Bradley and McCain, suggesting they could do better elsewhere as voters tune in. Following the campaign Feel well-informed "very closely" about the candidates New Hampshire 33% 68% Nationally But it also seems that the two insurgents have tapped into a culture of anti-establishment politics an aversion to pandering and an admiration for plain speaking, even iconoclasm at least some of which may be particular to New Hampshire (view its votes for Pat Buchanan in 1996 and Paul Tsongas in '92.) For example, 56 percent of likely Republican voters in New Hampshire think McCain is "not a typical politician," compared to just 40 percent for Bush. While 57 percent think Bush would "bring needed change to Washington," that jumps to 77 percent for McCain. Most tellingly, while 52 percent think Bush "says what he really thinks, even if it's not politically popular," a whopping 85 percent say that's true of McCain. McCain also has capitalized in New Hampshire on Bush's perceived weakness in world affairs, and on Bush's comparatively late start there; considerably more Republican voters think he takes the state seriously, and understands their personal concerns.
3 Among Rep. Voters in New Hampshire Bush McCain Gap He says what he thinks 52% He knows world affairs He'd bring change to Washington Takes N.H. concerns seriously He's not a typical politician He understands your problems Knows where he wants to lead He can be trusted in a crisis He's honest and trustworthy He's very intelligent He's a strong leader He has the right experience He has the right temperament Nationally, though, these issues aren't playing out for McCain nearly as well. One reason, which exposure can address, is that he's much less well-known, so many more people have no opinion of him. But Bush has much stronger ratings nationally than in New Hampshire on several qualities, with the notable exception of being a "typical politician." Bush Ratings N.H. Rep. voters National leaned Reps. He says what he thinks 52% 71 He knows world affairs He'd bring change to Washington He understands your problems He's not a typical politician DEMOCRATIC DANCE Many of the same elements are at play in the Gore-Bradley race. Seventy-six percent of likely Democratic voters in New Hampshire believe that Bradley says what he thinks, even if it's unpopular; only 45 percent say that of Gore. Fifty-four percent say Bradley is not a typical politician; that falls to 34 percent for Gore. And after his two terms as vice president, only 40 percent in New Hampshire say Gore would "bring needed change to Washington." Sixty-eight percent say Bradley would do so. At the same time, there are weaknesses for Bradley in New Hampshire, particularly in having "the right experience" and knowledge of world affairs. Among Dem. Voters in New Hampshire Gore Bradley Gap He says what he thinks 45% He'd bring change to Washington He's not a typical politician He understands your problems
4 Takes N.H. concerns seriously He's honest and trustworthy He's a strong leader Knows where he wants to lead He has the right temperament He's very intelligent He can be trusted in a crisis He has the right experience He knows world affairs As with McCain in his party, sizable numbers of leaned Democrats nationally have no opinion of Bradley on these qualities. For his part, Gore does better nationally than in New Hampshire on some qualities, such as bringing change to Washington; and worse on others, such as knowledge, experience and intelligence. Gore Ratings N.H. Dem. voters National leaned Dems. He says what he thinks 45% 54 He'd bring change to Washington He knows world affairs He's honest and trustworthy He has the right experience He's very intelligent He knows world affairs He's not a typical politician FINANCE/TAXES Another issue that has some legs in New Hampshire for Bradley, and especially McCain, is campaign finance reform: Voters there trust McCain first and Bradley second to handle it, though hardly any rate it as the most important issue in their vote. Again, though, these candidates' edge on this issue fades nationally. (See separate poll analysis on campaign finance, released this morning.) Taxes, meanwhile, is one of those issues on which Bush may not be giving himself much of a boost. Among likely Republican voters in New Hampshire, 52 percent think Bush would be able to cut taxes without pushing the budget back into a deficit a majority, but hardly an impressive one. Nationally, 58 percent of leaned Republicans think he could do it. But among all Americans nationally, 59 percent think not. BRADLEY'S HEALTH Another issue is Bill Bradley's health, following his hospital check-up last week for an irregular heartbeat. It could be a problem for him: Nationally, 21 percent of Americans say this does make them concerned about his physical fitness to serve as president, including as many Democrats and independents as Republicans. There's less concern about Bradley's health half as much in New Hampshire. Concerned about Bradley's health? Yes No N.H National 11 87
5 SIR YES SIR Finally, these polls test McCain's appeal as war hero by checking his support in households that include a military service member, veteran or reservist. There's something there: Nationally, McCain's support against Bush doubles in military households, from 10 percent to 20. And in New Hampshire, he's backed by 50 percent of likely Republican voters in military households, compared to 33 percent in others. Support for McCain in Rep. Primary Military households Non-military N.H. 50% 33% National ERRATA Note: An earlier version of this analysis made brief mention of "candidate qualities" data in the national poll. TNS Intersearch, the field house for this survey, later reported that a programming error created errors in some of these results. The errors were significant in some cases, but the data were not central to the analysis and did not affect its main conclusions. This report uses corrected data in the trend section under Q13. METHODOLOGY These ABC News/Washington Post polls were conducted by telephone Dec , one among a random sample of 1,006 adults across the nation and the other among a random sample of 1,371 adults in New Hampshire, of whom 744 were identified as likely New Hampshire voters 435 Republicans and 309 Democrats. Error margins depend on sample size. The national results have an error margin of three percentage points; in New Hampshire the error margins are 3.5 points for all likely voters, 4.5 points for likely Republican voters and 5.5 points for likely Democratic voters.
