New Hampshire, whose primary is not fully closed, can be difficult to poll because of the uncertainty about how many undeclared voters will turn out for the Democratic primary.

The state has 413,000 undeclared voters, 288,000 registered Republicans and 275,000 registered Democrats.

The survey comes eight days ahead of the nation’s first Democratic primary in New Hampshire and hours before the Iowa caucuses on Monday.

A number of recent national polls show Biden and Sanders emerging as Democratic primary voters’ top picks.
