Trump bests Ted Cruz in Iowa and now receives 34 percent support among Republican caucus-goers. Trump was at 23 percent in the Fox News Poll two weeks ago (January 4-7).

Cruz is second with 23 percent -- down a touch from 27 percent. Marco Rubio comes in third with 12 percent, down from 15 percent. No others garner double-digit support.
Haha
just proves trump is right again - FOX News is unreliable.

I'm really not concerned about Trump. He did what he needed to tonight. Its a long process. I would be concerned if he lost NH. That's a state hes been leading big time for a long long time (see below). Rubio got a couple endorsements in SC which could make that state interesting if endorsements even matter these days.










As of Feb 1:


According to RealClearPolitics polling averages, Trump has an 21.7-point lead with 33.2 percent of the vote, followed by Cruz and Kasich tied at 11.5, Jeb Bush at 10.3 and Rubio at 9.5.


New Hampshire Polling Averages (by RealClearPolitics)

Donald Trump: 31.3%
John Kasich: 11.5%
Ted Cruz: 11.5%
Jeb Bush: 10.3%
Marco Rubio: 9.5%


FiveThirtyEight’s polls-plus forecast gives Trump a 61 percent chance to win New Hampshire, with Cruz at 14 percent and Rubio at 10. Their polls-only forecast bumps Trump to 73 percent, with no one else in double digits.

FiveThirtyEight Polls-Plus Forecast

Iowa GOP officials expressed concerns Sunday that the lack of predictive power in the state caucus may lead to Iowa being bumped further down the primary schedule. Every GOP nominee since 2000 has done so without winning Iowa

Let’s check in on something that we haven’t touched on in a bit: GOP delegate math. If current results hold up, Cruz will win 8 delegates, Trump and Rubio 7 delegates each. By our estimates, Cruz and Trump needed 12 to be “on track” for the nomination, and Rubio needed 10. Granted, Iowa accounts for just 1.2 percent of all delegates to the GOP convention. However, so far Rubio is 70 percent on track, Cruz is 67 percent on track, and Trump is only 58 percent on track.


Also from 538
That's akin to saying the Chicago Bulls are up 4-2, 2:00 minutes into the first quarter of the game. You'll need a bigger sample size.

Iowans are apparently stupid for voting for Hillary to win..

Then again, I'd probably say the same had they voted for Sanders to win.
