The Republican nomination fight continues to be dominated by political newcomers Donald Trump and Ben Carson. In Iowa, Carson has moved up to tie Trump.

In South Carolina and New Hampshire, there is Donald Trump with a large lead, and then there is everyone else.

Iowa is first but their process involves several steps before they actually select
their nominee. This first is a precinct caucus at each of the 1682 precincts. They
select people to attend the next level which selects a smaller number to attend the
next level until they get to the state convention where the winning nominee is selected.

Sounds much easier to me to go pull the lever and let each voter make his/her preference
known at that time..

“I know Carsons Iowa numbers are complete BS.”

How do you know that?

How has he moved up to tie? He was supposedly up by eight points.

And when Carson goes behind Trump by eight points, he will be "surging" and "nipping at Trump's heels."

I'm starting to learn how to interpret these polling results.

It’s so bogus. until they release the pics of CARSON packing in crowds of 10-20k, I don’t believe it.

If Carly even hints at such treachery, such betrayal, she is through as a conservative. The Dems will use her, but not trust her either. She may as well go into the Green Party next time.

Strange as it seems, it looks like Carson has picked up Fiorina’s voters.

Trump support is being under counted

I agree. The media has to keep this interesting. If they show Trump totally running away with this (which I believe he is), folks will start tuning out of the "all Trump, all the time" coverage which has garnered them such great ratings since July.

There is not a dime’s worth of a difference between an establishment RINO iCarly and Obama’s 3rd term Hillary. They are both run by the cheap labor express.

“Iowa is not a vote! It’s some sort of corn pone system where gas0h0lic addicts/whores stand in a tent, a barn or some such place to ‘vote’ for the Pimp/candidate promising to continue to support their Gas0h0l $ addiction by keeping or increasing the gas0h0lic federally mandated % per gallon.”

Not really strange. Both Fiorino and & Carson are AGAINST deporting illegals.

That’s right! Trump actually gained in Iowa. He usually poled around 20%!

Carson is a one-state pony. After Iowa his campaign collapses.

Share your secret with us. If you don't like a poll, it is wrong. If you like a poll, it is right.

Your life must be topsy turvy.

The secret is called LOGIC.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logic

“Consistency, validity, soundness, and completeness[edit]
Among the important properties that logical systems can have are:

Consistency, which means that no theorem of the system contradicts another.[14]

Validity, which means that the system’s rules of proof never allow a false inference from true premises. A logical system has the property of soundness when the logical system has the property of validity and uses only premises that prove true (or, in the case of axioms, are true by definition).[14]

Completeness, which means that if a formula is true, it can be proven (if it is true, it is a theorem of the system).

Soundness, which has multiple separate meanings, creating a bit of confusion throughout the literature. Most commonly, soundness refers to logical systems, which means that if some formula can be proven in a system, then it is true in the relevant model/structure (if A is a theorem, it is true).”

Carsons poll numbers in Iowa are due to intentionally skewed samples in a DESPERATE attempt by the Political Enemedia class to stop Trump.

By the the way, Trump is going to make sure this is the last time Iowa with its 97% non black population has much to say about who the GOP POTUS Nominee should be.

In fact, maybe he’ll figure out a way to pay black families on welfare an extra $10,000 bucks a pop to move there.
