MANCHESTER, N.H. (WHDH) - This time tomorrow, some of the voting places in New Hampshire will already be open. And our final tracking poll gives us a last look at where the candidates stand right now.

The Republicans are the big story...Because we know who's on top, but that's about all we know. The Democratic race is much easier to predict:
Bernie Sanders is now beating Hillary Clinton by 16 points- 56% to 40%, after he lost a point overnight, and she kept what she had.
Undecided is up to 4%, an increase of two points since yesterday.

The tracking poll shows Sanders is too far ahead of Clinton for her to catch him by Tuesday.
All she can do now is try to cut the margin her loss..
But the Republican race is more complicated, and the outcome is a mystery.
Donald Trump stays in the top spot, with 34%, after dropping two points overnight..

Then, a tie for second--at 13%--after Marco Rubio lost a point, and there was no change in Ted Cruz's support.
John Kasich and Jeb Bush also are now tied, at 10%. Kasich gained one point...While Bush held steady.

cruz is surging, now all he has to do is tell rubio’s voters that rubio is dropping out and cruz is the obvious choice for rubio voters.
If Cruz pulls out 2nd place, in New Hampshire, that would be big news. It wouldn’t beat Trump’s victory, but it would crush Rubio/Kasich/Christie/Bush, which would be good enough for me.
if the polls get this one wrong, they should just be outlawed...
Another poll, another day, and the musical chairs for 2nd place continues. Donald maintains his strong first place finish in every poll.
I have yet to find a Cruz hater who could cite ANY article with an Iowa Carson supporter saying they changed their vote because of what happened. Maybe you will be the first.
Betting he will or pull some other stunt.
+21% for Trump. The rest sucking wind.
Let Cruz and Trump exchange wins until it is a two man race with the establishment stuck trying to figure out which poison it wants.
In the morning the Cruz campaign will send out a text saying Bush is dropping out & going to Florida for a 3 day rest. Wednesday, Cruz will blame CNN....
I’m not sure Rubio has lost much ground.
The truth is that after you get past Trump and Cruz, there really isn’t much to choose from.
Jeb’s “strength” is in blue states, that won’t matter for Republicans anyway.
Wow Cruz at 13% in liberal NH. I think polls are setting Trump up for a “loss” by saying Rubio (Jeb, Christie, or Kasich) won by exceeding expectations.
MSM deceit this morning
FOX had on former Bush staff head John Sununu on tv this morning. FOX didn’t reveal he is for Jeb working as his NH campaign manager. Sununu is former Gov. of NH, he is working all his friends to get Bush into the top 3.
If Fox wasn’t on Jeb’s side, then why did they go after everyone in the interview except Bush?
Sununu says if Trump doesn’t win by more than 12 percent its a loss.
Excuse Me. Since when is a Double Digit win ever been a loss. Especially in a field so large many don’t even have Double Digits support for them.
I say Bush flops if he isn’t win, place or show with at least 12 percent vote. After all Jeb has spent over 100 million dollars, and he has total name recognition and a former Gov. of NH rounding up the vote for Jeb.
FOX is so biased and dishonest.
But so is Trump’s strength. Not saying he stinks in Red states, but clearly he out performs others in blue states.
Do you think Jeb will be as dumb as Carson to say he’s going back to Florida and not going to NH or SC? and then have CNN report it?
If so then yes it may happen again.
You mean just like Rubio was the first to do in Iowa?
Other Freepers have posted Rush is still pimping Rubio.
