NH Poll: McCain, Obama Make Gains

Pay attention, because this is a bit confusing. The University of New Hampshire Survey Center conducted a poll last week for CNN/WMUR from Dec 13-17. But they're also out with a new survey this week (Dec 16-20) for the Boston Globe and the new poll shows some serious movement. On the Democratic side Barack Obama has taken the lead from Hillary Clinton:

Democrats
Obama 30 (+4 vs UNH Survey conducted for CNN/WMUR Dec 13-17)
Clinton 28 (-10)
Edwards 14 (nc)
Richardson 7 (-1)
Undecided 12 (+4)

Overall, Clinton leads by 4.8% in the RCP Average for New Hampshire.

On the Republican side, there's been a solid swing in John McCain's favor:

Republicans
Romney 28 (-6 vs UNH Survey conducted for CNN/WMUR Dec 13-17)
McCain 25 (+3)
Giuliani 14 (-2)
Huckabee 10 (nc)
Paul 8 (+3)
Undecided 12 (+4)

Romney's lead over McCain in the RCP Average for New Hampshire is down to just 5.4%.
