Fueled by a big lead among first-time Iowa likely Republican Caucus participants, Donald Trump jumps to a 31 - 24 percent lead over Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released today. Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida has 17 percent, with Dr. Ben Carson at 8 percent and no other candidate above 4 percent.
This compares to results of a January 26 survey by the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN- uh-pe-ack) University showing Trump at 31 percent, Cruz at 29 percent and Rubio at 13 percent.
Today, 3 percent are undecided and 28 percent of those who name a candidate say they still might change their mind.
Also relying on first-time Iowa likely Democratic Caucus participants, Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont has 49 percent, with 46 percent for former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and 3 percent for former Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley. Only 2 percent remain undecided and 14 percent of those who name a candidate say they might change their mind.
The key for both Trump and Sanders is first-time caucus goers:
Trump leads Cruz 40 - 22 percent among these first-timers, while Republicans who attended prior caucuses go 26 percent for Cruz and 25 percent for Trump;
Sanders tops Clinton 62 - 35 percent among Democratic first-timers, while Clinton leads 52 - 41 percent among voters who attended prior caucuses;
44 percent of Republicans and 38 percent of Democrats say this is their first caucus.

I think Trumps going to win by a huge margin. I also think Sanders will win by a huge margin. Hillary doesn’t get it...people don’t trust her. Of course, her sheep will always follow her.
Got to turn them out!
These results would really shock the political class.
Emerson does not get it. LOL
I predict: Trump over Cruz by 7 points in Iowa.
Nice!
This by far the most important outcome. He rolls her in Iowa and NH and Cankles is fighting from behind just like 2008 - something she really sucks at. And no Operation Chaos from Limbaugh to help her this time...
I agree with you!!! I notice you have been saying that for weeks!
But but Trump doesn’t have a ground game...Cruz & his followers have told us this time & again :)
Go Trump!!!
“I predict: Trump over Cruz by 7 points in Iowa.”
Good call!
On to NH!! Woo Hoo!
