NC Policy Watch ^ | February 22, 2016 | Clayton Henkel

The latest polling data shows solid support in North Carolina for Donald Trump with less than a month to go before the March 15th primary.

The Elon University poll finds Republican registered voters and Independents who describe themselves as leaning Republican favor Trump over all other candidates vying to be the GOP's presidential nominee.

The real estate mogul was favored by 28% of those voters surveyed, compared to 19% for Ted Cruz, 16% for Marco Rubio, and 10% for Ben Carson.


Trump v. Clinton

Donald Trump: 41 percent

Hillary Clinton: 47 percent

Neither/Someone Else: 9 percent

Don’t Know: 4 percent


Cruz v. Clinton

Ted Cruz: 46 percent

Hillary Clinton: 46 percent

Neither/Someone Else: 5 percent

Don't Know: 4 percent

Like Perot, Trump is a billionaire who will help elect a Clinton by hurting the Republican nominee.

First the nomination. Then we get into the Presidential election! Personally I believe Hillary will get Schlonged by Trump.

I find most college polls are worthless. Then again NBC/WSJ was in a class all its own.

They told me Cruz was “wildly popular” in the South and that New York values would doom Trump there.

So far that’s not the case.

Such is my worry.

I have heard quite a few indies and even GOPers say they would never vote for Mister trump in the general.

I would, but sadly trump is a loser of a general election candidate.

Trump will beat Hillary like a rented mule!

Why any Freeper would use a Democrat push poll and post it on Free Republic is beyond me.

Carter was up on Reagan by 20 points at this time in 1980

Silly. FWIW I have watched the polls for eight months and noticed that for whatever reason, this particular group is way to the left of the rest. PPP is supposed to be the “Dem” poll but it has been much more accurate than Elon.

Once Trump starts an all out assault on Hillary, she’ll crumble much like Jeb Bush.

Hillary has provided endless ammunition to be used against her in the general matchup. I also would believe that many disaffected bernie voters will end up voting Trump.
