New Hampshire poll: Trump on top, Rubio in second
CNN ^ | February 4, 2015 | Jennifer Agiesta

Posted on 02/04/2016 2:29:31 PM PST by McGruff

Donald Trump continues to hold a wide lead among likely Republican primary voters in New Hampshire, according to a new CNN/WMUR tracking poll, with the pack vying for second place is beginning to break up.

Behind Trump's field-leading 29% support, Florida Sen. Marco Rubio climbs to second place with 18% following his strong third place finish in Iowa, followed by Ted Cruz (13%) and John Kasich (12%) in a near-tie for third. Jeb Bush holds fifth place at 10%, a hair behind Cruz and Kasich, with Chris Christie and Carly Fiorina well behind at 4% each. The fight for second place between Cruz, Rubio and Kasich remains within the survey's margin of sampling error.

The poll was conducted entirely after the Iowa caucuses.

You are joking - right!!

Ted's quaking in his large Texas boots at the mere thought of going up against the Trumpertanytrum and Flamenco Boots in the next debate!

He LENT his campaign 12.8 million, instead of writing a check.

This means he expects donors to put money in the campaign to pay himself back.

Also, he is a cheapskate at REGISTERING voters, getting analytics going and overall ground game.

He will run out money and infrastructure before the SEC primaries at this rate.

The trends are very dangerous. Trump and Cruz should unite on Rubio.

Rubio can catch Trump. Trump would be #2 with Cruz on his heels and the other RINOs blown out.

Rubio and Cruz are the winners and Trump the loser, again.

Would rather see Trump and Cruz finish #1 and #2.

Rubio second? You have got to be kidding. There must be a lot of used cars to sell in NH if Rubio is that high in the rankings. As the original “huckster”, he is good at that for certain.

Out doubt Trump can be overtaking in NH, but not long to go now. This is not Iowa where Trump almost won his weakest state.

Rubes gave a good speech in IA. The establishment is behind Rubes.

And the coup de grace is that Rubes has a decent ground game....

watch out Trump, you may be taken out by captain amnesty ...

I had no idea there were so many retarded voters in the USA.

Quite the sight isn’t it, my favorite part is when the other chip in to celebrate their editorial genius!

His lead of 28 points has evaporated to 11 !

That is 17 points and we have not had the debate yet which either Rubes or Cruz could well at.

You just KNOW ABC will be setting up Rubes. Finally, five days are an eternity

Cruz needs to drop out before Rubio gains any more ground.

If he dropped out, Rubio would get most of his votes. Trump has reached his ceiling. He can never get over 50%. Too many people can't stand him. He has no path to the nomination. It'll either be Rubio or Cruz. If Trump stays in, he helps Rubio.

So Trump is over his Megyn-iphobia now? She will be there. Trump might be the one quaking in his NY loafers.

37% will not vote Trump - almost 3x Cruz’s “No way” number 13%

Which is why Trump needs to drop out. All he does is pull votes away from Cruz, votes he will never have enough of to win the nomination, and ensure the RINO wins it in the end. It's Gingrich and Santorum splitting the vote to help Romney all over again.
