The death penalty issue has not been raised much, if at all, in the Prez horse race. So, here's a bit of what can be found.
Hillary Clinton: Supports Death Penalty:

Barak Obama: supports (for "most heinous crimes"), supports "reform", voted to punish countries that won't return suspects to the USA because of the death penalty, etc.
