New Hampshire poll shows Bernie Sanders surging, Joe Biden faltering

Sen. Bernie Sanders is expanding his lead in New Hampshire — as former Vice President Joe Biden falters, according to a new poll released on the eve of the primary election in the Granite State.

Sanders, who won New Hampshire in 2016, has 25 percent support — an increase of two percentage points from a week ago — while Biden dropped eight percentage points to 14 percent, a UMass Lowell Center for Public Opinion poll showed.

Former South Bend, Ind., Mayor Pete Buttiegieg finished in second place with 17 percent, followed by Sen. Elizabeth Warren of neighboring Massachusetts with 15 percent.
