The dirty little secret here is that this was not a two-answer question. It was:
Obama
Trump
Someone Else
Undecided
Trump + Someone Else + Undecided = 51%
Was “someone else” described as being 3rd party, or did people assume another GOP candidate, which wouldn’t be representative of a real General Election.
My guess is that is why the GOP numbers were lower than expected. The wording says that 65% would prefer Trump over Obama, but does not say that they would vote Obama instead. The other 35% could be in the “someone else” column, but they make you assume they would vote Obama.
Looks deceptive to me.

The author seems bias against Trump The wording says only 65%...
