GOP presidential hopeful Ted Cruz is getting a big polling bump after his announcement that he will seek his party's nomination, Public Policy Polling reports.
Support for the first-term Texas senator, who opened his national campaign office in Houston on Tuesday, rose from 5 percent to 16 percent, PPP noted, pushing Cruz into the top-tier of Republicans who will likely make a primary run.
Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker is leading the pack, followed by former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush and then Cruz, whose popularity with conservatives in his party is growing, PPP said of its latest survey of likely GOP primary contenders. Bush and Walker narrowly lead polling in New Hampshire, one of the early primary states, according to a Suffolk University poll reported last week by The Wall Street Journal.
Others in the PPP survey include Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul, who ties retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson with 10 percent, followed by Florida Sen. Marco Rubio and former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee at 6 percent apiece. Rounding out the bottom are New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie with 4 percent and former Texas Gov. Rick Perry at 3 percent.
PPP noted of Cruz's gains in a release Wednesday: "Cruz has really caught fire with voters identifying themselves as 'very conservative' since his announcement....

For all of those who were panicking because Cruz was at like 4-6% in most polls....and for all of those who were happy about that — you were BOTH wrong to read too much into it.
And I’ll not read that much into this one either, other than to say Walker and Cruz are being helped by this early push - but things will change a hundred times between now and Iowa, let alone SC-Florida and so on.

From the article:
PPP noted of Cruz's gains in a release Wednesday: "Cruz has really caught fire with voters identifying themselves as 'very conservative' since his announcement. After polling at only 11 percent with them a month ago, he now leads the GOP field with 33 percent to 25 percent for Walker and 12 percent for Carson with no one else in double digits."
The North Carolina-based pollsters added: "Last month Walker led with that group and almost all of the decline in his overall support over the last month has come within it as those folks have moved toward Cruz. Cruz's name recognition with Republican voters has increased from 61 percent to 82 percent since his announcement. Besides Cruz the other candidate with momentum over the last month is Rand Paul. His support has increased from 4 percent to 10 percent."

"PPP noted of Cruz's gains in a release Wednesday: "Cruz has really caught fire with voters identifying themselves as 'very conservative' since his announcement...." Makes sense in that Cruz is the only one that is very conservative on all the issues.
