Nearly twenty-five percent of those likely to vote in New Hampshire's Democratic Party presidential primary support Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., putting him in first place in a new Boston Globe/WBZ-TV/Suffolk University poll.

Former South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg moved into second place with almost 19% support. Buttigieg had surged from 11% in a Monday poll.

Here is how the candidates polled:

  • 24.8% for Sanders.
  • 18.6% for Buttigieg.
  • 12% for former Vice President Joe Biden, who had polled at 18% on Monday.
  • 11% for Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts.

No other candidate scored in the double digits.

"Buttigieg's movement is real," said David Paleologos, director of the Suffolk University Political Research Center. "This is beginning to shape up to be a two-person race."

The poll, conducted Tuesday and Wednesday, surveyed 500 likely voters. It has a margin of error of plus or minus 4.4 percentage points.
