\"\"<\/a>Polls continue to show Gov. Bill Richardson\u2019s<\/a> support edging closer to 10 percent in a number of states. <\/p>\n

<\/o:p><\/p>\n

The newest American Research Group poll<\/a> of Colorado<\/st1:state> has Richardson<\/st1:place><\/st1:city>\u2019s support at 8 percent in that state, up from 2 percent in March. Hillary Clinton<\/a> leads in that poll with 39 percent, Barack Obama<\/a> has 22 percent and John Edwards<\/a> has 10 percent. Fourteen percent are undecided.<\/p>\n

<\/o:p><\/p>\n

The poll of 600 likely Democratic primary voters, conducted from Sunday-Wednesday, has a margin of error of plus or minus 4 percent.<\/p>\n

<\/o:p><\/p>\n

The newest Strategic Vision poll<\/a> of New Jersey<\/st1:state> has Richardson<\/st1:place><\/st1:city>\u2019s support at 7 percent in that state. The last poll in that state, conducted about three weeks ago by Qunnipiac University<\/a>, had Richardson<\/st1:place><\/st1:city> at 4 percent. In the new poll, Clinton<\/st1:place><\/st1:city> is at 46 percent, Obama is at 20 percent and Edwards is at 10 percent. Eleven percent are undecided.<\/p>\n

<\/o:p><\/p>\n

The larger poll of 800 likely voters, which sampled Democrats and Republicans, was conducted July 13-15 and has a margin of error of plus or minus 3 percent. The margin of error for those questions asked only of likely Democratic voters is likely higher but wasn\u2019t released.<\/p>\n

<\/o:p><\/p>\n

A third poll isn\u2019t as positive for the Richardson<\/st1:city><\/st1:place> campaign.<\/p>\n

<\/o:p><\/p>\n

The newest American Research Group poll<\/a> of Florida<\/st1:state> has Richardson<\/st1:place><\/st1:city> at 3 percent, which is where he was in the group\u2019s last poll in that state conducted in May. Clinton<\/st1:place><\/st1:city> leads with 45 percent, followed by Obama with 25 percent and Edwards with 9 percent. Eleven percent said they are undecided.<\/p>\n

<\/o:p><\/p>\n

The poll of 600 likely Democratic primary voters was conducted July 12-15 and has a margin of error of plus or minus 4 percent.<\/p>\n

<\/o:p><\/p>\n

An interesting note: Edwards\u2019 decline isn\u2019t unique to New Hampshire<\/st1:state>, where he has actually fallen behind Richardson<\/st1:city><\/st1:place> in the most recent poll<\/a>. He\u2019s dropping rapidly in polls in a number of states.<\/p>\n

<\/o:p><\/p>\n

While we\u2019re on the topic of Richardson<\/st1:place><\/st1:city>, the Associated Press<\/a> has an interesting article about how the governor\u2019s personal assets have increased tenfold since he left federal government in 2001. Check it out if you get a chance.<\/p>\n

Update, 11:15 a.m.<\/p>\n

<\/o:p><\/p>\n

A new CNN poll<\/a> out today shows that Richardson<\/st1:City> still isn\u2019t making any progress in the important primary state of South Carolina<\/st1:place><\/st1:State>. He\u2019s in fourth place, at 2 percent, and far behind third-place candidate Edwards, who is at 17 percent. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
