Ahead of Super Tuesday, Donald Trump holds strong double-digit leads in the solidly Republican-majority states of Alabama and Oklahoma, according to the results of the latest Monmouth University polls from both states released Monday. Among likely Democratic primary voters, Hillary Clinton is head and shoulders above Bernie Sanders, but in Oklahoma, the race is within the margin of error, with Sanders holding an advantage.
In Alabama, where Trump on Sunday held a rally to announce the endorsement of Sen. Jeff Sessions, the real estate magnate has the support of 42 percent of likely primary voters. In second place is Florida Sen. Marco Rubio with just 19 percent, followed by Texas Sen. Ted Cruz at 16 percent, Ben Carson at 11 percent and former Ohio Gov. John Kasich at 5 percent.
Trump holds a wide advantage among evangelical voters in Alabama, leading with 43 percent to Rubio's 18 percent and Cruz's 15 percent, and he is statistically tied with Cruz with that group in Oklahoma, grabbing 29 percent to the Texas senator's 28 percent and Rubio's 21 percent. Likely primary voters in Oklahoma opted for Trump as well, though his margins were smaller. In Oklahoma, Trump earned 35 percent, compared with 23 percent for Cruz, 22 percent for Rubio, 8 percent for Kasich and 7 percent for Carson. Majorities of GOP voters in both states indicated they had either made up their mind or had a strong preference toward a particular candidate, with smaller shares of respondents having already voted. Of those who indicated that they will be voting for Trump, a full 60 percent in both states said they are completely decided on Trump.
