Donald Trump has returned to the lead in Iowa while Ted Cruz has now surged past Ben Carson into second place. Carson has slipped from a first-place tie into third.
Cruz's move has come directly at the expense of Carson, as nearly one-quarter of his voters switched.
In New Hampshire, Donald Trump keeps his commanding lead, keeping up support from conservatives, Republicans and the independents who say they're coming into the GOP primary to vote for him. This month finds Marco Rubio nearly doubling his support and pushing into second place -- albeit far back of Trump -- at 13 percent now, up from 7 percent, enough to edge past Carson and Cruz in the nation's first primary.

This poll is a week old...why post it?
Spock “ Interesting “
I don’t know. It is still fun to look at. I want Fiorina to pas Jed
While no one was looking, Pataki has had a dramatic surge in the polls. Former NY Gov. and certain-to-be nominee George Pataki has gone from O to 0.9% in just a few days! => http://polling.reuters.com/#poll/TR130/filters/PARTY_ID_:2,LIKELY_PRIMARY15:1,PARTY_ID_:2/dates/20150823-20151127/type/smallest
I thought New Hampshire was the bellwether state for how the nomination should go. Here’s the Nov. 18th Fox News poll out of New Hampshire:
1. Donald Trump: 27%
2. Marco Rubio: 13%
3. Ted Cruz: 11%
4. Jeb Bush: 9%
4. Ben Carson: 9%
6. John Kasich: 7%
7. Chris Christie: 6%
I'm glad he did, I hadn't seen it yet. Bump!
Because I like to see my guy, the little skinny bobby jindal, still gets 2% even after he quits. Hey, he's still beating linda.
Gilmore, Pataki, and Graham leveling off at 0.
Pataki has skyrocketed. See post #5
My sense is that Cruz supporters are more “solid” than Trump supporters. Cruz appears to move only in one direction: Up
but I have also never seen where he was not in the lead.

Let me help you out a bit. Since this mentioned IA click the following link to polls
in Iowa and scroll down and look at the polls ending in the last two weeks of Oct.
You’ll see some where Trump is not the leader in IA.
I am new here and just figuring out the coding to post. I came here for Trump and making America great again. But every one of my posts is censored for approval. It is getting tiring posting and figuring out this code and then it taking a day for each post to post.
Welcome.
It's OK....there are some here that monitor the threads 24/7
Having said that,
Here is a nice pic of what the Donald is doing to the assembled GOPe, K-Street, the Super Pacs, La-Raza, BLM, the "consultants", dims, lefties and assorted progressives and communists...
“While no one was looking, Pataki has had a dramatic surge in the polls. Former NY Gov. and certain-to-be nominee George Pataki has gone from O to 0.9% in just a few days!”
Practicing for a job interview at the New York Times, now are you?
“I have seen several times where Trump is retaking the lead but I have also never seen where he was not in the lead. “
yeah, polling sure ain’t what she used to be ...
“My sense is that Cruz supporters are more ‘solid’ than Trump supporters. Cruz appears to move only in one direction: Up”
Which would hardly indicate the “solidness” of Cruz voters since the GROWING numbers means he’s their SECOND choice if they’ve switched from supporting someone else.
The Trump supporters are the broken glassers, because we’ll support Trump no matter what outrageous thing he says and no matter who attacks him just so long as he doesn’t reverse course on illegal immigration.
It is easy to drop by the polls after work and vote for somebody. It takes more time to go sit at a caucus. So you need to poll true believers in Iowa. And because of that, I think Bernie is going to do very well against the Hilldebeast.
On the R side, I can go either way on Trump's support, which makes it interesting. He is getting a lot of non-traditional voter support, which makes me wonder whether people who support him, the non-political, will take the time to go caucus for him. But on the other side, he draws huge crowds. Those people are obviously taking the time to go see him.
Having participated in several Iowa caucuses, I think Cruz will win Iowa. And if I have to pick up top 3 (because the nominee will be one of the top 3 in Iowa), I think the order will be Cruz, Trump, Rubio.
