DURHAM, NH – Donald Trump has taken the lead in the New Hampshire Primary race. This marks the first time that any Republican candidate has held a statistically significant lead in the Granite State. Trump is an extremely divisive candidate within the party as he is the candidate that New Hampshire Republicans say they are least likely to vote for. These findings are based on the latest WMUR Granite State Poll, conducted by the University of New Hampshire Survey Center. Seven hundred and twenty-two (722) randomly selected New Hampshire adults were interviewed by landline and cellular telephone between July 22 and July 30, 2015. The margin of sampling error is +/- 3.6 percent. Included were three hundred nine (309) likely 2016 Republican Primary voters (MSE = +/-5.6), two hundred seventy-six (276) likely 2016 Democratic Primary voters (MSE = +/-5.9), and six hundred and fifty-two (652) likely 2016 presidential election voters (MSE = +/- 3.8).
Walker doing surprisingly well in favorability.
Bush and Trump are tied?
Lots of insane, crazy voters out there.
That's why he's winning.
Why would people put Trump in the lead in the polls, and not like him? This doesn’t make sense to me.
From some Freepers, it’s like when the MSM pollsters gave McCain and Mittens the ratings, but annihilated them later right after the nominations. It looks like a set up so tread lightly..
And NH is not a conservative or libertarian state...nor is the NH GOP primary a Republican event.....
Bush is wishywashy, And Trump has a strong loud personality. Walker comes across as nice.
That's why he's winning.
Well, he's not a dumbocrap either! Good for us!
Trump is a Trumpist party member. Unique except for maybe his kids. ;)
Lots of very tired and depressed Republican voters out there!
Truth to that but of course you know why that is happening? Please explain.
Like u said, it’s NH, it’s not a republican event.
I wonder why they don’t poll us here in Texas?
Yes, and wish more here could understand that! We have been here for years and voting for the most Conservative candidate only to be again demonized by both the media and our own party. Well, to hell with them!
I guess folks are watching.

People vote for their candidate and them hit dislike on anyone who they know are higher in poll; thereby giving the likes of Rove the ammunition he needs to minimize the person ahead of his candidate. It’s political posturing! And is a technique used masterfully by Gopee to get their candidate elected.
Well, we have the Democrat Party, and the Republican Establishment Party, and now the Trump Party.
Seems to me that what we really need is America’s Party.
