Morning Consult - Trump 40-14 over Carson
Morning Consult ^ | 10/20/2015 | usafa92

Real estate mogul Donald Trump continues to lead the field seeking the Republican presidential nomination with a whopping 40 percent of the vote, up from 34 percent in last week’s survey. Carson is a distant second, at 14 percent.

Trump absolutely dominating here 40-14 over Carson. Yeb at a paltry 6%. Rubio and Cruz at 5%. Nobody else even worth mentioning. Again, Morning Consult is an Internet conducted poll using statistical sampling methods. Trump dominates this poll and the Reuters poll coming out at 5 should mirror. I believe that the media is using their polls to prop up Ben and minimize Trump's support. Bottom line is Trump is winning everywhere.

Hard to know what polls to believe but this comes closest to how I sense things. Trump is absolutely dominating in terms of media, excitement and activity. Carson is the second "non politician" choice but well behind. Then you have Cruz and Rubio vying for the number three spot - the establishment outsider vs the new golden boy of the GOPe.

As for Jebbie Bush, I see absolutely no enthusiasm for him whatsoever, anywhere. I don't know what the GOPe was doing handpicking him. Even if he was a half decent candidate, his last name is toxic to a lot of voters.

This poll didn’t say what I wanted it to say, so it must be fake or untrustworthy or a push-poll or something.

/Carson and Cruz supporters

FOX will respond with a poll showing Carson jumping ahead of Trump.

Polls are being used to achieve their sponsors ends. i don’t trust any of them anymore. But...what I see is Trump selling out at every event he conducts. I see other candidates talking to hundreds and Trump speaking before thousands and tens of thousands. It’s clear as day to me that Trump is so far ahead that the others can’t even see his dust anymore.

Holy Moly!! + or - 2% !! What is astounding here is that they measured “self Declared Republicans and Leaning Republican” on the Republican side. If you measure “likely to vote in primaries and caucuses , Trump would even be higher!! I knew the the WSJ/NBC poll was modified to fit their narrative. This one is independent an totally exposed the NBC/WSJ poll as a fraud!! Trump is running away with this !!!It has turned into a band wagon.

Any poll from Fox is a fraud. It is a propaganda too of the dying GOPe.

I believe Carson will fade....and Rubio and Cruz will gain.

In the end....only No. 1 counts.

And although it's just to tease, the polls that make you pick two or three should be discounted except for No. 1.

No. RCP never includes these polls for Trump. They don’t include Reuters either. Apparently the Internet based polls are not scientific enough for them but somehow the hack polls with samples of 250 work just fine.

If Rubio had not tried to double-deal us on immigration he could well be challenging for the lead.

OH BOY!!! I haven’t gotten anything but a hat and some signs....I’m chicken....I went to the store the other day to pick up some pumpkins and I was walking out of the store and here are these two guys in the parking lot, just going at it, (words) the one guy had a TRUMP bumper sticker and the other guy was going nuts....and I live in a Republican state, Utah, but I guess our ‘leader’ Hatch took it upon himself to say Utah was for Bush...

I just don’t have it right now to wear the hat or put out my signs....I have a lot on my plate right now and need to have my strength on it....

But you go and wear it proudly and yell to the top of your voice if someone says anything HELL YA TRUMP!!!

No RCP doesn’t include this poll. Their polls are handpicked.

It is politics. But it is far from clear and it plays fast and loose with reality.

Everyone knows that the new polling has undertaken scientifically to INCLUDE those with cellphones. RCP relies almost exclusively on low number, low representation landline phones.

If other polls start coming into line with this, it’s basically lights out. The nomination is his.

Yes these polls like CNN and Fox News showing Carson 2 pts behind Trump are just skewed. There is no way. 40-14 sounds more realistic.
