Poll: Trump expands lead in Oklahoma
The Hill ^ | 2/24/2016 | Bradford Richardson

Posted on 02/24/2016 12:04:34 PM PST by BlackFemaleArmyColonel

Republican primary front-runner Donald Trump has widened his lead in Oklahoma, according to a new poll.

The poll by Cole Hargrave Snodgrass and Associates finds Trump leading the state with 29 percent support, followed by Marco Rubio with 21 percent and Ted Cruz with 20 percent.

Ben Carson places fourth in the poll with 6 percent, followed by John Kasich with 5 percent.

Trump is up 5 points since the last version the poll two weeks ago, while Cruz has dropped 5 points over that same span.

The poll comes a week ahead of the state's March 1 primary.

Pollster Pat McFerron told NewsOK that the top three candidates are in a statistical tie among reliable GOP primary voters, but Trump wins among voters who have rarely voted in previous Republican primaries.

"Trump performs best among lower income households, those over 45 and those with a history of rarely voting in Republican primaries, though there is a statistical tie among the top three candidates among the most reliable primary voters," McFerron said.

There are 43 delegates up for grabs in Oklahoma, which will be allocated proportionally.

The poll surveyed 400 likely Republican voters from Feb. 22-23 and has a margin of error of 4.9 percent.

Trump will win around a dozen states or more on Super Tuesday.

Rubio’s number one problem is the fact that he betrayed all he ever met:

He betrayed his friend, Jeb Bush, who supported him morally and sent him a check even, in his FL congressional and senatorial, state and federal endeavors.

He betrayed the TEA party, who worked avidly to make him Senator of FL, instantly, as soon as he saw the big columns in DC.

He betrayed legal Americans and America with his Gang of Eight.

He still betrays the two, above, when he speaks in Spanish to Jorge Ramos and tells 180 degrees different on amnesty, saying in Spanish that he’ll “keep president Obama’s amnesty deal”, but tells the viewers in English that he wouldn’t.

He betrayed all the FL residents by being absent from DC and not performing his senatorial duties, in pursuit of yet another position.

He never has staying power for more than a few months, after he wins any position.

The media all call him an “establishment insider candidate.” He ran for the senate as an outsider, in the TEA party, and was a total deceiver as soon as he hit DC.

He is, in simple words, Benedicto Arnold to all he ever met, depending on what his incredible political ambitions are.

His second biggest problem is inexperience in the real world.

He has never produced or built anything. He was a lawyer for a very brief time. Other than that he has never even run a taco stand.

Trump/Cruz 2016

My Super Tuesday prediction is 13 states and 1 territory will be won by Trump and the remaining Super Tuesday states split between Cruz and Rubio.

I like your spelling better!

I was trying to be funny, imagining there is a kind of grass called snodgrass. But apparently there no such thing.

Rubio is far closer in these polls than he should be.

Oh wait, it does mean something:

Snodgrass Name Meaning
Scottish: habitational name from a place near Irvine in the former county of Ayrshire, named with northern Middle English snod ‘smooth,’ ‘sleek’, ‘even’ + grass ‘grass’.

So it’s basically it’s an old timey way of saying “smooth grass”

“What had embraced our crankbaits was “snot grass,” a disparaging but appropriate name given by local fishermen to a black algae which has become prevalent at Tuckertown Lake.”

I am guessing Rubio closes the gap in many of the March 1 states. He is close enough to win some of them. The debate tomorrow could have significant impact. There are a lot of undecideds that need to make a decision this weekend.
