THE RACE: The presidential primary in New Hampshire for Republicans and Democrats.
___
THE NUMBERS_ DEMOCRATS
Hillary Rodham Clinton, 35 percent
Barack Obama, 16 percent
John Edwards, 16 percent
Bill Richardson, 8 percent
___
THE NUMBERS_ REPUBLICANS
Mitt Romney, 28 percent
Rudy Giuliani, 23 percent
John McCain, 12 percent
Fred Thompson, 11 percent
Mike Huckabee, 6 percent
___
OF INTEREST:
Among Republicans, Romney is slightly ahead of Giuliani. On the question of which candidate would be the strongest leader, 31 percent picked Giuliani, followed by 25 percent for Romney. However, when asked who would be the best to fight terrorism, McCain placed second to Giuliani, 22 percent to 34 percent. And on social issues such as abortion and gay rights, Romney and Giuliani are about even, with 25 percent of GOP voters saying Giuliani would be best followed by 23 percent for Romney.
Clinton's message of experience has given her a lead when voters are asked who they pick for president and who has the right experience to be president; 47 percent of Democrats said she has the experience, even among voters who don't plan to vote for her. John Edwards and Bill Richardson come in next, with 10 percent each; Obama posts 8 percent on the experience question. But when Democrats have to pick their second choice for president, Obama leads with 23 percent. Obama also leads among Democrats when asked who has new ideas; 35 percent say he has them, twice as many who pick Clinton's 17 percent. And 40 percent of Democratic voters agree new ideas is a top priority; 31 percent say experience is their top concern.
___
The Los Angeles Times/ Bloomberg poll surveyed 1,312 New Hampshire voters from Sept. 6-10, with a sampling error margin of plus or minus 3 percentage points. It included 618 Democratic primary voters with a sampling error margin of plus or minus 5 percentage points, and 430 Republican primary voters with a sampling error margin of plus or minus 5 percentage points.

(This version CORRECTS Corrects that Romney is slightly ahead of Giuliani overall, not in a statistical tie and about even with him on social issues.)
