Latest New Hampshire poll shows Marco Rubio closing in on Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton within striking distance of Bernie Sanders

February 6, 2016

 The Boston Globe has released a new poll which shows Marco Rubio closing in on Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton closing in on Bernie Sanders. Here is more:

Front-runner Donald Trump holds a nearly 10 percentage point lead over his rivals in New Hampshire’s Republican primary race, but Senator Marco Rubio is closing the gap in the final days, according to a new poll released Friday.

Twenty-nine percent of voters surveyed said they backed Trump, and Rubio of Florida took second place with 19 percent. That’s the highest level of support Rubio has shown in any public survey since Trump entered the race in the summer.

The Suffolk University/Boston Globe survey also showed former secretary of state Hillary Clinton in striking distance of Senator Bernie Sanders, who has a 9 percentage point lead in the Democratic primary.

  Of course the Boston Globe has an agenda and this poll runs contrary to every other poll we have seen to this point. The last Democratic poll we saw had Bernie Sanders leading Hillary Clinton by 31 points and most polls show Donald Trump with at least a 20 point lead, I find it hard to believe things have changed in so short a period of time.

  The Boston Globe has endorsed Hillary Clinton and I would bet the paper would much rather see an establishment candidate such as Marco Rubio win the Republican nomination rather than Donald Trump so it appears as if this is an attempt by the paper to influence the outcome of the election rather than reporting what is going on in the Granite State.

  Something is fishy here…

    Bullshit. This poll has the lowest number for Trump and the largest number for Rubio seen any other. Also is in the heart of commie NE.

    Why wouldn’t or should t the left wing media shill for Rubio after being outed as a do nothing Senator by his buddy Rick Santorum. Surely the NH voters will eat this up and run not walk to the polls to vote for the poor son of Cuban refugees (playing that card for all its worth) who as someone unable to manage his personal finances will be the perfect guy to manage our $ 19 trillion deficit while at the same time pays back his billionaire backers.

      Well, the golden boy, Jeb, is pretty much not going to be President, he blew it, so guess they are starting to prop up Rubio. We know how that goes, don’t we?
