CA DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY: At Edwards' Expense, Obama Creeps to Within 15 Points of Hillary -- In a Democratic Primary in delegate-rich California today, 01/14/08, three weeks to the vote, Hillary Clinton defeats Barack Obama 50% to 35%, according to SurveyUSA tracking poll data conducted for KABC-TV Los Angeles, KPIX-TV San Francisco, KGTV-TV San Diego and KFSN-TV Fresno. Compared to SurveyUSA's most recent CA poll released one month ago, before Iowa and New Hampshire, Hillary Clinton is up 1 point, Obama is up 5 points, and John Edwards, who finishes today at 10%, is down 4 points. In October, Clinton led Obama by 37 points. Obama has gained material ground since then, but Clinton has not lost as much ground, so the advantage remains hers.
