Despite President Bush's efforts to rebuild his political base, Gov. Bill Clinton is holding on to both a significant lead in this race and the support of important elements of the Reagan-Bush coalition, according to the latest New York Times/CBS News Poll. The poll shows Mr. Clinton with strong backing from young people, suburbanites, independents, Roman Catholics and Democrats who said they voted for Ronald Reagan and Mr. Bush. Emphasis on the Economy Riding a wave of economic discontent, the Democratic nominee now has the backing of 49 percent of the voters over all, compared with 37 percent who say they are supporting Mr. Bush, the poll shows. Despite Mr. Bush's efforts to refocus his campaign and repackage his economic agenda, those standings are essentially unchanged from the last Times/CBS poll three weeks ago.

The campaign for the Democratic Senate nomination from New York ground to a bitter end yesterday in a whirlwind round of street-corner rallies, appeals for upstate support and an emotional paid-television plea by Geraldine A. Ferraro, asking voters to reject what she called her rivals' efforts to exploit "the poisoned well of fear and stereotype." With no reliable statewide statistical picture available from public polls, aides to both Ms. Ferraro and State Attorney General Robert Abrams described a tight contest between them in the Senate race, in which turnout is expected to be crucial to the outcome. Both candidates fought for the one-third of registered Democrats who live upstate, with Mr. Abrams replacing all his existing television commercials in Buffalo with a new one stressing his warm endorsement by The Buffalo News, and with Ms. Ferraro issuing a new position paper pledging her support for farmers.
