With four days to go until voting, a new WBUR poll finds a somewhat tightening race in the Democratic presidential primary.

The poll (topline, Democratic crosstabs) -- conducted over three nights this week after the Iowa caucuses -- has U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders, of Vermont, leading former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, 54 percent to 39 percent. That's a tighter margin than many other recent polls.

"The Democratic side, we have what looks like a possible contest," said Steve Koczela, of The MassINC Polling Group, which conducted the survey for WBUR.

On the Republican side, the poll (Republican crosstabs) finds businessman Donald Trump still way ahead of the pack. Trump leads with 29 percent of likely voters -- well ahead of U.S. Sens. Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz, who are both at 12 percent in the survey....

Another poll another day and now we have Rubio and Cruz tied for 2nd place. Everyday there is someone else in 2nd.

Per HuffPost Pollster, this is the 8th NH poll released today. I find this one somewhat interesting in that Rubio is low in this poll and they made a point to state that there has been no Rubio surge, which is opposite the media narrative. Another day, another poll, we’ll see Tuesday I guess.

Oh my! Jim Gilmore is surging, he went from 0% to <1%.

Okay, okay ... from Dec. 6-8, small movement within the MoE among the top 5.
