Trump Leads Rubio by 6 Points on the Eve of the South Carolina Republican Primary – 31-25%
Overtime Politics ^ | 02/19/2016 | Fred

A day away from the South Carolina Republican Primary and things are looking interesting. Donald Trump holds a 6 point lead, but Marco Rubio seems to be nipping at his heels, trailing 31-25%.

Donald Trump leads in support among most demographics, with some fluctuation among income levels. Rubio and Ted Cruz are well within striking distance, but it appears as though Donald Trump will win the South Carolina primary. He may not win by much, but the state awards 29 delegates to the statewide winner, while each Congressional district winner receives 3 votes per district. A Trump win by a significant margin statewide would probably mean he walks away with 44-50 delegates, leaving the rest of the pack 6 delegates at most

Cruz is pretty steady just under 20%. Rubio is charging forward. Big time. Once I saw his strong comeback in Iowa, it was clear he was going to finish this thing either as the nominee or last man standing behind Trump. The anti-Trump, if you will.

People who can’t vote for Trump but can vote for Cruz due to lack of integrity. You asked.

This is the first poll I have seen ever with anyone winning the “over $65,000” demo from Trump.

No doubt about it.

Haven’t you heard? He’s the “new JFK”.

So this is the second poll to show Trump with a 5-6% point lead in SC, and this poll was probably taken before his statement supporting the Obamacare mandate.

He could actually lose SC, having lost 10% in the past week.

His debate performance was terrible, and his post-debate comments have only added to his collapse.

Not much on this polling firm on the internet at all, just a few entries on google and most of the comments say they are not reliable.

The Establishment had 40% of the vote in NH.

This is the Establishment consolidating behind Rubio.

The bad news is that he still has room to grow if Kasich and Bush ever drop out.

“His debate performance was terrible, and his post-debate comments have only added to his collapse.”

As I always say, nothing beats an objective, disinterested analysis.

I think, possibly, maybe, but I'm not sure...it *could* have something to do with what you just said:

"You joined here in Dec 2015 or two months ago to Rubio Astroturf push polls from some fourth rate polling firm...

LOL!

This is the poll, I believe, that weights “very conservative” voters as half of the primary electorate. Trump dominates that grouping but not by as wide a margin as he does other demographics. IOW, this is a trash poll.

We can’t let scRubio the amnesty pimp get in the top two. He needs to be sent back to the private sector.
