RENO, Nev., Feb. 17 (UPI) -- Days out from the Nevada Democratic caucuses, a new poll shows former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders nearly tied.
The Nevada poll, released by CNN and ORC on Tuesday, found 48 percent of likely Democratic caucus-goers said they'd choose Clinton as the party's nominee, while 47 percent chose Sanders. The new numbers close a gap since the last time the poll was taken in October, when Sanders was 16 points behind Clinton. The Nevada Democratic caucus is Saturday.
