Coming hot off his win in New Hampshire -and with a significant amount of his time devoted to South Carolina- it’s little surprise that Trump is 16-17 points ahead. It appears that the only demographics that Trump isn’t currently winning are 18-29 year-old voters and self-described “very liberal†voters, who prefer Rubio and Kasich, respectively. Evangelists prefer Trump to Cruz by a margin of 10 points – a significant change from Iowa, where Cruz led with evangelical voters by four points.
When respondents were asked of their second choice for the nomination, Rubio and Cruz command the first and second spots (within 2 points), with others trailing closely.
The poll was conducted for the Augusta Chronicle, Morris News Service, and Fox 5 Atlanta.

It’s The Art of the Deal.
For Donald Trump this is like a business deal. He is buying up GOP stock and it’s a hostile takeover. Sorry GOPe, sorry faux conservatives, you are losing the company. Better get out your golden parachutes. ;-)
TAKE BACK AMERICA. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN. GO TRUMP!
he had one up there in the Clemson area two days ago with ten thousand people.. not far from Greenville.. it’s in evangelical land
As FReeper xzins so perfectly pointed out (on another thread).....
The “Trump Effect” = all of his positives, name recognition, minus negatives
And he still has 44% of the electorate!
Go Trump, GO!
Agree...and right now, this is war. Every candidate is punching out and attacking. Win the war, then we work on ‘tone’ :)
This is YUGE!!!! :0 Marco Bot making a comeback???
:-))
This looks like a legit poll, not an “internet poll”, though I know that just because it is a polls using non-internet based response doesn’t make it a great poll since, for example, if a phone call is used to gather data, well likely I won’t be home at the time and I never answer any call ever unless I recognize the phone number that pops up on my big screen TV or on the monitor.
That aside, I think it is probably legit and looking good for Trump. I only like to deal in reality, so I am not taking this poll as the outcome, no way, every supporter for their candidate can participate and push for their gal or guy, but in the end I think Trump has S.C.. I know he has California, just from everyone I know here, but as with anything else “birds of a feather flock together”... but as with anything, I will not lie and say I check out these polls to get a “heads up” even though they are just another business.
I think Cruz is way over hyped and will be fading.
In today’s Morning Consult Trump is at 44%, Cruz 17. Trump favorables are at 67%.
[Which commandment is that?]
Lying is the NINTH Commandment.
We get called no less than 10 times a day some days for either candidates or polling.....we never answer the phone so we never participate in the polls. Thing is, most folks I know are the same way. They either don’t answer these calls or they don’t have a home phone any longer. Just not sure how reliable these polls can be any longer.
He knows he has SC wrapped up so it’s time to go to Tampa and lock up Florida.
Sure you are. Which is why Cruz’s immature attacks on Trump don’t bother you at all.
Evangelicals PREFER Trump to Cruz by 10 points - I guess the narrative is falling apart. Watch out for Cruzers imploding.
People underestimate how effing smart Trump is. His rough language and occasional profanity is an assault on "political correctness" which is, as we all know warfare of the Marxist left using diction and word choice. HIS LANGUAGE IS A POLITICAL STRATEGY!!!
Trump is single handedly setting the political correctness, cultural fascism movement back decades. He is bulldozing. The real estate guy is bulldozing the land and resetting the foundations. Trump IS not a candidate, he is a counter revolution.
Fantastic news. Fingers crossed!
Which commandment is that?
The 9th.
By the way, I also think all of Cruz’s momentum came BEFORE he hooked up with the Beck cult thing. I think THAT is why we are seeing him start to fade now, hooking up with the Becker nut jobs has and will sour his appeal to America in no small way, and we are now seeing it happen and it is because Glenn Beck is a disaster for Cruz and you watch, this wingnut will go off script (not that his current script is anything sane) and he will go into some bender that will totally embarrass the Cruz campaign, the time bomb is ticking. In fact, you Cruz supporters better be ready for this nut to at any moment suddenly turn on Cruz and start saying some bizarre things or somehow Beck feels some personal insult if his “commands” are not heeded to, he is much like Levin who is all about his ulcer hatreds of competitors, and by the way the ruin of Levin all started with him hooking up with the nutcase Glenn Beck as well. You watch, next Becker Boy is going to do some anti-Jew thingy as part of his religious fanatic post-alcoholic brain damage, and don’t think Beck might start hitting the bottle again even if he thinks he was saved by the angel Raphael who appeared to him one night and said, “You are my chosen one, Glenn, put down that bottle of gin and look into my Face”...
Just listened to it on YouTube. Rowdy is an understatement! ☺
Go Trump
