Inside the numbers:
So what's the secret of Christie's strength against Clinton?
"He
performs particularly well among independents, winning nearly six in 10
in that key group," CNN Polling Director Keating Holland said. "He also
wins a majority of suburbanites and older voters, something that no
other GOP hopeful [that was] tested was able to do against Clinton."
"Christie
doesn't win in the Northeast, although he does hold Clinton to a bare
majority there, but he has a solid edge in the Midwest while playing
Clinton to a draw in the South and West," Holland said.
Not
surprisingly, the survey indicates a gender gap: Christie has a
14-point lead among men but loses women to Clinton by 10 points.
