The polls are all over the place out there. I might add that New Hampshire’s polling over the last few elections has been notoriously wrong. Thirteen polls before Iowa this time around also got it wrong. Having said that, Real Clear Politics shows one thing for certain… Donald Trump has a commanding lead over the Republican field. I don’t believe a lot of what these polls have to say about the race in the Granite State, but I do believe that Donald Trump is far, far ahead there and looks to win that caucus. He leads by double digits and even though he is playing down whether he will win or not, it looks to me as though he has that state in the bag.
From The Wall Street Journal:
Donald Trump leads the crowded GOP presidential field by double digits in the final days leading up to New Hampshire’s primary Tuesday, according to the latest Monmouth University Poll released on Sunday.
Bernie Sanders holds a 52% to 42% lead over Hillary Clinton among likely voters in the Granite State’s Democratic primary.
Mr. Trump, a billionaire businessman, earns 30% support from voters likely to participate in Tuesday’s primary, with the next four candidates clustered within two percentage points but far behind Mr. Trump. The poll was taken before Saturday night’s Republican debate. With 14% support from likely voters, Ohio Gov. John Kasich has a narrow lead over Florida Sen. Marco Rubio and former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, who are tied at 13%, and Texas Sen. Ted Cruz at 12%. The four are within the margin of error of each other.

That's exactly what the polls had said in Iowa. But after the stunt Cruz pulled with Carson I hope he stomps the field from here on out. Tired of Fox news, Megan Kelly, Wallace and Baer.
ReplyDeleteTrump is toast.
ReplyDeleteWho can do the most once in the office of President? Doesn't anyone find it odd that US citizens are THIS fed up with politics in general,and that even foreign leaders are heralding Trump as the best thing in decades to happen to the US? The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few,especially in this country.If the many come out and vote the few will be forced to either better themselves or die.November can't get here quick enough.
ReplyDelete11:16 With butter and jam in your face.
ReplyDeleteTrump supporters are going to be disappointed much in the same way that Obama supporters were. The guy is making promises that he can't keep. Saying what the base wants to hear..Wake up! Trump is a farce!!
ReplyDeleteAnd which one is not doing that 11:42? We need someone with guts to kick PC liberal butt, nothing else will do at this point.
ReplyDeleteHis daughter is married to and has a couple of children with a Goldman Sachs son. He will represent the international bankers.
ReplyDeleteThis is a staggering lead. I've seen 34% for Trump with the closest being Rubio at 14%. Now that's a spread that's going to be shocking if Trump doesn't win NH. Pays to be an outsider in this Election Cycle.
ReplyDeleteWe'll have to see what happens.
3:57-Those ends are rapidly coming together as we speak,but not enough to anticipate a Trump loss.Don't let a single digit victory surprise you.
ReplyDelete"and that even foreign leaders are heralding Trump as the best thing in decades to happen to the US?"
ReplyDeleteOh my God. Please take a breath and THINK for a minute. These are the same 'foreign leaders' who were proclaiming Obama as the greatest thing since sliced bread, as well. Same bunch of goofballs that handed him the Nobel prize. How's that working out for you?
