Donald Trump is surging in GOP presidential polls ahead of next week’s first Republican debate among the party’s presidential candidates, but the controversial businessman finished third in a sampling of conservative activists, according to a survey released Saturday by the St. Louis Tea Party Coalition.

In email polling of 122 coalition members conducted July 26 through July 29, Texas Senator Ted Cruz came in first at 29 percent, followed by Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker at 27 percent, with Trump at 19 percent. The rest of the crowded GOP field finished in single digits. You can see the entire poll here.

The poll also asked respondents who they would support if their first choice was not on the ballot. Governor Walker finished first at 28 percent and Senator Cruz at 19 percent

In the growing field of candidates for Missouri Governor, Lt. Governor Peter Kinder topped the field at 42 percent, followed by NAVY Seal Eric Greitens and Businessman John Brunner, who both had 24 percent support.

The entire poll had a margin of error of 8 percent.

Get a DLP projector, can get a picture on the whole wall like in the theaters, and possibility cheaper than a 70 inch TV..

Actually some DLP projectors have just a good of a picture as a plasma TV.

I’d rather have the Sony PlayStation 4 over a X-Box.

Sorry to get off subject.

Chuck fe la sandwiches rock.

Go Cruz Go !

The Tea Party is like how grass is in the winter, when it’s brown it’s not dead, but once the sunlite of spring hits it it turns green and grows.

Because they didn’t have the votes to over ride the repeal attempt to repeal Obamacare, that’s why.

Not according to this poll from this article.
Ted Cruz Trumps Donald Trump in this poll.

Not is Ted Cruz lagging in fund raising donations, in which is a true indicator of base support before the primaries and polls in about 6 months.

Sounds about right and it's also a very respectable showing for people who remember his past positions.

Let's see how this evolves...

Sounds about what one might expect - Cruz top of Tea Party list with Walker second and Trump showing because of what he has brought to the deal. I believe they are our best possible choices from the field we have to work with with Cruz on top of my list and Walker and Trump rubbing shoulders for now but Trump may pass Walker in my pea-brain....

An “email polling of 122” is a joke.

Add a 0 to the end of 122 and you MIGHT have a valid polling base.
