Governor Bill Clinton won his sixth straight primary election by 55%, a drop from previous years. The poll also found that the Democratic race for president is very close with Hillary Clinton, Bernie Sanders and Martin O’Malley all within single digits. He counters, "a business wouldn't fire a 43-year old with ten years of experience who's doing a good job." Clinton has focused on improving Arkansas' educational system and calls himself the candidate of change. He was elected first in 1978 but lost in 1980. He won again in '82, '84, and '86, when the term was increased to four years. Nelson, who hopes to paint Clinton as a tax-and-spend Democrat, said the primary election results show the governor is on the ropes. He has implied that if he is elected this year, he will not run for president in 1992.
