Could be that the over 62 age group are the most likely to vote. Trump wins all age groups, and in all sections of the state.
According to this, it will be a good day for Trump tomorrow.
“How is Trump doing with young people (20-30 yo), compared to Cruz, Rubio, Clinton and Sanders? Do you think Trump can win in the general election?”
Take a look at the demo breakdown in the linked poll and it shows basically the same support levels for 18-25 as all other demos shown in the poll results.
“Trump WILL get some crossover too”
probably not many Dems though: they have their dogfight to duke out as well. Only 3% Dem cross-overs in New Hampshire.
“I bet Trump is behind it.”
So, your theory is that Trump is pulling the strings of the South Carolina Republican House Caucus to manipulate their survey in his favor? Pretty sweet if he could actually do that.
BTW, here’s the actual poll methodology:
Methodology
Likely Republican presidential primary voters were selected at random from a list of registered voters based on party participation and registration date. Household ages and locations were extracted as well from this list. In excess of 200,000 households were called over the duration of the poll. Each household participant was asked to opt-in to the survey if they planned to vote in the 2016 SC presidential primary.
Using automated voice response technology allows each participant to hear the questions exactly the same way, from the same voice, spoken with the same tone and nuance. Calls are placed to randomly-selected phone numbers through a stratified process that insures appropriate geographic representation. These calls were placed from 10:30am to 8:30pm
“Those who would be happy if either Sanders (socialism heavy) or Clinton (Socialism lite), can vote their choice for Republican nominee.”
Dems are in a huge dogfight over those two and did not cross over because of that in New Hampshire. Only 3% Dems crossed over in NH.
Reports say that there has bee a record number of absentee ballots cast in the SC primary.
We know that South Carolina is an open primary state.
We also know that SC requests an ID, but a photo ID is not required. How does SC handle absentee ballots?
Is only the signature proof of ID on absentee ballots?
Does SC allow multiple (40 or more) absentee ballots from the same address?
Have the Democrats run massive voter registration drives this year, where they bundle registrations and turn them in as a large batch?
Isn't it interesting, that those registering voters under “voter registration drives”, can keep copies of the registrations (with signatures), and then have the ability to vote for the homeless, disabled, and disinterested.
Isn't it also strange how people who have registered through these drives, find they have already voted, when they go to the polls.
Isn't it also interesting how the dead vote with absentee ballots in ID and Non-id states, and both ways where no ID is required.
Actually the winner gets 29 delegates and the rest are devided up with the losers.
At the present time no.
I haven’t seen folks going after voters.
Let any criticism roll off your back.
We all get to make our choices ourselves.
Thank you.
Ah...wiki was wrong again! Thank you. I should know better than to use Wiki.
Trump and Sanders both have a similar message to young people, but Sanders is pulling in the young people more than Trump. It would be an interesting contest to see which one with similar messages would win. Even Trump confused Sanders message with his.
Thank you!
True, but the independents are voting.
Rubio is the GOPe candidate. He will bet there to the bitter end. The GOPe hopes that once the race gets down to three people, Rubio will emerge as the challenger to Trump. They are hoping for a brokered convention.
Seniors vote at a higher percentage than anyone else.
“Even Trump confused Sanders message with his.”
yeah, we know: you’ve posted that nine thousand times here how.
You need to find a more contemporary anti-Trump slur: that one is past its due date.
It just happened. And some people may not have heard about it yet.
Plus that’s how it works. Trump is still crying about Iowa and that’s how old now? When Trump stops crying about Iowa I’ll stop pointing out Trump thinking Sander’s platform was his. Deal?
That might be a problem except in Trump’s case they did not support him at any higher rate than the average of the other age groups.
