People keep quoting Trump’s unfavorable rating. If it actually has meaning why did Trump get one less delegate in IA while spending 10% of what Cruz did? Why did trump blow out NH??
I have the feeling the unfavorable rating is bunk.
They’re not national elections.
Point one: One less delegate, 6,239 fewer votes than Cruz and a crowded field; only ~8,500 votes separated the top three and only 2,262 votes between Trump and Rubio.
Point two: NH isn’t exactly the most conservative state in the country.
Final point: You may very well be right, but I wouldn’t assume so; Hillary’s 50%-plus unfavorable rating sounds about right, if not too low.
