(Yesterday) Trump and Cruz (Were) in Virtual Tie for SC
Conservative Review ^ | February 15, 2016 | Phil Shiver

Posted on 02/16/2016 6:56:55 PM PST by 2ndDivisionVet

Pro-Jeb Bush Super PAC Right to Rise has conducted an internal poll in SC that finds Donald Trump and Ted Cruz in an extremely tight race.

The results list Trump at 26 percent, and Cruz at 24 percent, with Bush and Marco Rubio coming in a distant third and fourth with 12 and 11 percent respectively, according to a report by Politico.

Right to Rise polling is now being conducted by South Carolina veteran political strategist Richard Quinn.

In the Politico report Quinn states: "This is clearly a tight, volatile race that could produce most any result over the next six days."

What's more is that Right to Rise has shown precision accuracy in their internal polls of late. On February 8th, just hours before the New Hampshire Primary, Right to Rise released a poll showing Bush rising to 12 percent and notching third place while Rubio fell to fifth.

The results were eerily similar as Bush just narrowly missed third place and 12 percent, and Rubio did indeed fall to fifth.

The most recent SC poll was conducted between Thursday and Saturday, which is interesting because it does not take the candidates' debate performances into account. Bearing that in mind, this primary race may be even more volatile than expected.

An internal poll of whom—GOP-e donors?

Geez, Vet. You're better than this.

It's highly unlikely that any regular readers of FR have missed seeing this poll, and of course you know that.

Brother, you're just looking more and more desperate, by pushing stuff like this.

Chill. It's gonna be what it's gonna be. We'll all still be here together, come what may.

LOL, which is no one, since it’s been posted about 10,000 times in the last 4 days.

But thanks for sharing the Jeb Bush super PAC poll, the only one that shows Jeb in third so he can make the case to his donors to give him a few more millions to flush. I like being reminded of all the wasted PAC money. :)

What I don’t understand is why a Bush super PAC would release this polling data.

You mean both of those who haven’t seen at least one of the 20 threads about this internal Yeb poll?

I really don’t believe this poll but if Cruz did somehow beat Trump in SC he would become the front-runner in the minds of many.

It’s literally been reported for one whole week. Started with Bill Kristol several days before the debate. There’s literally been almost 10 polls since then all with different results from this unverified SuperPac poll, from the same team that brought you the Red Head posing as a feminist to embarrass Trump.

Mike Murphy got the hook because of that fake poll. Donors are furious. Grab some popcorn!

No, 2ndDivisionVet had habit of repeating old polls everyday. In this poll, his guy was doing better, so its kind of healing process.

BTW, also cute how “Conservative Review,” which has Cruz buddies and a speech writer on board, with editor Mark Levin, is the one to make a big deal about an internal poll where we don’t even get to see the internals or methodology. CR is becoming as unhinged as the rest of the Cruz-o-sphere.
