PPP's newest North Carolina poll finds that Donald Trump's momentum just keeps on building. He's the top choice of Republican primary voters in the state, getting 16% to 12% for Jeb Bush and Scott Walker, 11% for Mike Huckabee, 9% for Ben Carson and Marco Rubio, 7% for Rand Paul, 6% for Ted Cruz, 5% for Chris Christie, 4% for Carly Fiorina, 2% for Rick Perry, 1% each for Lindsey Graham, Bobby Jindal, and Rick Santorum, and less than 1% each for John Kasich and George Pataki.
Trump's favorability rating in North Carolina is 55/32, much higher than we were finding in national polls prior to his entry into the race. Trump's really caught fire with voters on the far right- 66% of 'very conservative' voters see him favorably to only 24% with a negative view of him. Trump is polling particularly well with younger voters (29%) and men (20%).
Jeb Bush had been leading our previous few polls in North Carolina. But he continues to struggle with conservatives. Among 'very conservative' Republicans, only 37% see him favorably to 44% who have a negative opinion of him and only 7% of those voters support him for the nomination, putting him in 7th place in the GOP field. Bush's overall 43/35 favorability is the second worst of any of the 10 candidates we measured that for, besting only Chris Christie's 27/41 standing.

He had his turn at the Mexican Immigrant problem.

Oops. there = their
Telephone polls (which the major polling outfits use) don’t work anymore anyway.
Analyzing web traffic would probably tell you a lot more, with the right algorithm.
Google knows, but they ain’t tellin’.
This one is shaping up to be Trump and Cruz. Hope the GOPe will unify for the General.
Yup.....Jeb has proved himself to be a laughingstock. The family dragged him out of bed & had him lose a quick 25 pounds so they can run him for what they think is their rightful seat in the White House.
I agree, but they do to some extent influence where people donate to.
Let this be the beginning of the financial starvation of Sanctuary City Jeb.
That’s okay, they will be back in 20 with George P...

I think it was Jeb that wanted to run.
It’s like W got a toy and he didn’t. Jeb wants his toy too.
Amen!
40% drop in support for Jeb Bush in ONE MONTH!
MSM, GOPe, GOP, GOP pundits and all Trump haters are shocked.
ROTFLOL.
There’s a *yuge* SILENT MAJORITY that’s just starting to rumble!
Are you disappointed the polls have Jeb dropping?
See post #30.
I used to think all 3 of them were conservatives. Now I am convinced they only like the mild mannered, go along to get along, do not cause waves and hurt my stock portfolio, country clubber type republicans. They are all rich and live in gated sub-divisions so illegals are no problem.
Ya think Jeb’s that smart & ambitious:) From what I’ve seen he comes across as clueless.
They don’t want to have to argue tough issues. They would rather sit in their towers and watch the village burn. Georgie needs to stick to baseball.
Um, Graham is from South Carolina, but 1% is still right what he deserves.
From what Ive seen he comes across as clueless.

Jeb is clueless. Imagine there are people that sank $100 million in it for him to run. These folks are delusional.
It’s interesting....I never paid much attention to Jeb. I disliked his dad & GWB even more so, but to watch Jeb try & run as a republican on open borders & Common Core is astounding.
