Hillary Clinton Lead Drops

Her lead over Manhattan attorney Edward Cox is down from 30 percentage points to 23, NY1 News reports.
The poll also found that two-thirds of state voters want Clinton to serve out her full six-year term if she's re-elected to the Senate next year.
So far, Sen. Clinton has refused to take a pledge that she won't use her Senate seat as a stepping board for a presidential run in 2008.
But 70 percent said that her decision whether or not to commit to serving her term would have no impact on their vote.
