On the Republican side, Trump still has a double-digit lead over Cruz, who finished second in the Granite State survey.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>And in South Carolina, where NBC\/WSJ\/Marist conducted its first survey of likely primary voters this \u00a0election season, both Trump and Clinton hold commanding leads, with Clinton besting her Democratic competitor 64 percent to 27 percent.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTrump is positioned to run the house in these first three states. His supporters are committed and plan to turn out,\u201d said Lee Miringoff, Director of The Marist College Institute for Public Opinion. \u201cWill it happen? The answer depends on when or if anti-Trump sentiment will coalesce to interrupt his march to the nomination.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>For Clinton, Miringoff said the data underscored the importance of the Iowa contest next week. \u201cif Clinton carries Iowa, she can absorb a defeat to Sanders who has a home field advantage in New Hampshire and then move on to South Carolina. But, if Sanders carries Iowa and then New Hampshire, this contest will, indeed, be a marathon.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Iowa<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In the Hawkeye State, real estate mogul Donald Trump now leads the GOP pack with 32 percent support from likely GOP caucus-goers. Texas senator Ted Cruz gets 25 percent, Florida senator Marco Rubio has 18 percent, retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson has eight percent and former Florida governor Jeb Bush has four percent. All other Republican candidates get just two percent backing apiece from likely caucus-goers.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The results are an improvement for Trump, who trailed Cruz 24 percent to 28 percent in the same poll less than three weeks ago.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The poll also shows Trump in a close race with Cruz among likely voters who are white Evangelical Christians, 31 percent to 28 percent. The two candidates have been battling over the influential bloc of voters in the state, with each touting endorsements from Evangelical heavyweights in recent days.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>As he has throughout the campaign, Trump has a big advantage with non-college graduates, winning 42 percent of their support compared to 24 percent for Cruz and 12 percent for Rubio.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Among likely caucus-goers who are Republican college graduates, Trump receives 20 percent, while Cruz gets 26 percent and Rubio gets 24 percent.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>On the Democratic side, Clinton and Sanders are at 48 percent and 45 percent, respectively, within the margin of error of +\/- 4.7 percent for likely Democratic voters. \u00a0Former Maryland governor Martin O\u2019Malley receives the backing of just three percent of Democratic likely caucus-goers in the state.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>A significant gender gap divides the two Democratic rivals. Men support Sanders by a margin of 58 percent to 35 percent, while women favor Clinton 57 percent to 37 percent.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Age also divides the core supporters of both Democratic candidates. Sanders has the backing of 70 percent of caucus-goers under 45, while Clinton wins a majority &#8211; 60 percent &#8211; of those over 45 years old.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>New Hampshire<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In New Hampshire, Sanders has increased his lead among likely Democratic primary voters, now besting the former secretary of state 57 percent to 38 percent. That\u2019s up from his four-point lead (50 percent to Clinton\u2019s 46 percent) earlier this month.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>O\u2019Malley received just two percent support in the most recent poll.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Among likely voters who identify as independents, Sanders wins 66 percent to Clinton\u2019s 27 percent.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>On the other side of the aisle, Trump remains the dominant frontrunner in New Hampshire, getting 31 percent support compared to 12 percent for Cruz, a margin largely unchanged from polling earlier this month. Rubio and Ohio governor John Kasich tie for third place at 11 percent, while Bush garners eight percent and New Jersey governor Chris Christie gets seven percent. No other Republican candidate polls at more than five percent in the state.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Again, Trump runs the table with key voting groups, leading with young voters (37 percent), Tea Party supporters (34 percent), independents (26 percent) and with white evangelicals (26 percent \u2013 although the share of evangelicals in New Hampshire is much smaller than in Iowa.)<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>South Carolina<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In South Carolina, Clinton \u2013 largely fueled by the support of African American voters \u2013 beats her Democratic rival by more than a two-to-one margin.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Clinton gets 64 percent of likely Democratic primary voters\u2019 support, compared to 27 percent for Sanders. O\u2019Malley stands at just two percent, while seven percent say they remain undecided in the race.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Clinton receives the backing of 74 percent of African American likely voters, compared to just 17 percent for Sanders. For white voters, it\u2019s 52 percent for Clinton and 41 percent for Sanders.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>She leads handily with voters of all income levels, and she performs better than Sanders by double digit margins with both men and women.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Trump wins 36 percent of likely Republican primary voters, 16 points ahead of Cruz, who finishes second at 20 percent. Rubio garners 14 percent support, Bush gets nine percent, and Carson gets eight percent. All other candidates receive two percent support or less.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Among white evangelicals in the Palmetto State, Trump wins 33 percent, while Cruz receives 25 percent.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Clinton, Sanders Within Margin of Error in Iowa \u00a0 In N.H., Sanders Leads Clinton by 19 Percent \u00a0 Clinton Bests Sanders With More Than Two-to-One Margin in S.C. &nbsp; JAN. 28, 2016 \u2013 With only four days until the Iowa caucuses, Republican presidential frontrunner Donald Trump now holds a seven point lead over Sen.
