The poll stands in contrast from the most recent polls in New Hampshire compiled by RealClearPolitics, which have showed Biden leading in the critical primary state, followed by Sanders.
Gravis Marketing polled 250 Democratic primary voters on Aug. 2-6 using interactive voice responses and an online panel of cell phone users. The primary question had a margin of error of 6.2 percentage points.
“It is important to note that Sen. Sanders won the New Hampshire Democratic Primary in 2016,” Doug Kaplan, president of Gravis Marketing, said in a statement.
“However, it is unlikely that Sen. Sanders will have a repeat of his 2016 performance in the state due to the number of candidates in the race this time.”

As a Sanders supporter, this looks like a really bad poll. 250 people, margin of error over 6%?

Rooting for Sanders. He's making strong progress, one step at a time.

I looked at the 538 aggregate of polling of NH and there was a poll that covered the same time frame as this poll that had Biden up 4 points, while this poll has sanders up 6 points. That means it's probably a close race, but does not mean Sanders is the clear front runner in the state.
