Poll: Cruz cuts into Trump's SC lead
The Hill ^ | February 19, 2016 | Tristan Lejeune

Posted on 02/19/2016 4:56:54 AM PST by Cincinatus' Wife

An NBC News/Wall Street Journal/Marist poll released Friday finds Donald Trump leading the GOP presidential field by only 5 points in South Carolina, down from 16 points a month ago.

The RealClearPolitics average of polls still finds Trump ahead of the pack by double digits going into Saturday's South Carolina primary, but Friday's survey reports Trump has 28 percent support among likely Republican voters, down from 36 percent in January. Nearest rival Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) gets 23 percent, up from 20 last month.

Trump and Cruz are followed by Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) with 15 percent, former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush at 13 percent and Ohio Gov. John Kasich and Ben Carson tied at 9 percent.

Don’t forget the $250K that CRuz campaign gave to Midge McConnell’s NRSC.....just as Midge was in a testy race against Matt Bevin and Thad was pulling NRSC shenanigans against McDaniel.

And don’t forget the millions that CRuz’s largest donor, Robert Mercer gave to Club for Mexico’s Growth and Karl Rove’s Crossroads PAC.

You seem to have overlooked the above, for your “list”.

Cruz’ campaign is a mess? How so? He’s done a bang-up job in two states so far. He spent $421 per vote in Iowa compared to Carson’s $2,303 and Bush’s $795. His spending per vote was lower than I think everybody else’s in NH. He’s got carefully managed spending combined with high performance...how does this translate to being a bad executive again?

Poll: Cruz cuts into Trump’s SC lead


Are they trying to set up a bit of VOTE FRAUD — to make it look like it was REAL ?????????

======= :

Bev Harris of BlackBoxVoting

www.CoasttoCoastAM.com

Date: Thursday - February 4, 2016 Host: George Noory , Guests: , Bev Harris—the last 2 hours.

[ bit from the show summary :

In the latter half (2 hours), founder of Black Box Voting (blackboxvoting.org), an investigative reporting and public education organization for elections, Bev Harris, talked about voting issues related to the presidential primaries, and past elections.

- - - - - - - [ some on NH - - - - -

South Carolina, which uses a completely paperless touchscreen that sends results to a company in Tampa for counting, also has a troubled history when it comes to elections, she cited.

The state is so under the thumb of political party bosses in the most invisible way possible...

What I expect to see in South Carolina is that the candidates who are not favored with their state political parties will be dropped down considerably, she remarked.

This has the largest number of voters polled, the lowest margin of error of any poll I have seen in the campaign. If those folks turn out.... Trump crushes the field and Cruz is barely above the margin of error with Jebby.

How I wish we *could* vote today in beautiful South Carolina! My husband and I are (still) stuck in The People's Republik of Connecticut, where - believe it or not - you also need an ID to vote.

We've been checking out SC... it's one of those states that we hope to move to "someday"... :)
