AMES, Iowa -- As the candidates make their final push across Iowa, many caucus-goers are still trying to decide which candidate they'll support. Democrat Hillary Clinton and Republican Ted Cruz lead their respective parties, according to a new Iowa State University/WHO-HD Iowa Caucus Poll released Monday. However, there is little room separating them from the next candidate.

On the Democratic side, 47.4 percent of likely caucus-goers surveyed said they support Clinton. That's compared to 45 percent who said they favor Bernie Sanders. This is a significant jump from the first Iowa Caucus Poll in November, in which Sanders came in a distant second at 27.8 percent. Less than 1 percent of those surveyed in this latest poll said they'll caucus for Martin O'Malley.

On the Republican side, 25.8 percent of likely caucus-goers are backing Cruz, while 18.9 percent say they support Donald Trump. Ben Carson came in third (13.4 percent) followed by Marco Rubio (12.3 percent), Rand Paul (6.9 percent), Jeb Bush (3.8 percent), Mike Huckabee (3.7 percent) and Carly Fiorina (1.1 percent). Rick Santorum, Chris Christie and John Kasich registered less than 1 percent....

Trump leads by 6 points in both Huff Post and RCP averages for Iowa, dominating the past 6 or 7 polls. This poll isn’t even counted among them.

Well, they can only mean PAST caucus goers, unless the lines are already forming at the caucus sites a week ahead of time.

Guess they’re still assuming that the thousands who’ve stood in line to get into a Trump rally venue as just too uninterested to attend a caucus.

It's not mere disinterest that will keep them away. There are a whole raft of considerations at play; indolence and apathy not the least of them.

Stupid reply. I was referring to the Huff Post averaging of all the polls. RealClearPolitics gives the same average. As for "Iowan radio station," that's the stupidest appeal I ever heard in an attempt to get us to believe one poll over another. By the way, this poll even has Hillary beating Sanders, even though Sanders is leading Hillary in the Iowa polls right now too.
