Sunday Open Thread [2.15.16]

Today we have a big poll out from NBC Marist on South Carolina, New Hampshire, and Iowa. We have the primary and general election numbers, but I find the issue results most interesting. As for the GOP Primary, it’s Bush and Walker as the frontrunners. That is the key takeaway:

“Seven different possible Republican candidates get double-digit support in at least one of the states. But only two candidates — Jeb Bush and Scott Walker — are in double digits in all three states.”

IOWA–PRESIDENT–REPUBLICAN PRIMARY–NBC News/Marist: Huckabee 17, Bush 16, Walker 15, Christie 9, Paul 7, Rubio 6, Carson 6, Santorum 5, Perry 4, Cruz 2, Graham 1
IOWA–PRESIDENT–DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY–NBC News/Marist: Clinton 68, Biden 12, Sanders 7, Webb 1, O’Malley 1
IOWA–PRESIDENT–NBC News/Marist: Clinton 48, Bush 40; Clinton 49, Walker 38

NEW HAMPSHIRE–PRESIDENT–REPUBLICAN PRIMARY–NBC News/Marist: Bush 18, Walker 15, Paul 14, Christie 13, Huckabee 7, Carson 7, Cruz 6, Rubio 6, Perry 1, Graham, Santorum 1
NEW HAMPSHIRE–PRESIDENT–DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY–NBC News/Marist: Clinton, 69, Sanders 13, Biden 8, Webb 2, O’Malley 1
NEW HAMPSHIRE–PRESIDENT–NBC News/Marist: Clinton 48, Bush 42; Clinton 49, Walker 42

SOUTH CAROLINA–PRESIDENT–REPUBLICAN PRIMARY–NBC News/Marist: Graham 17, Bush 15, Walker, 12, Huckabee 10, Carson 10, Paul 7, Christie 6, Rubio 4, Perry 4, Santorum 3, Cruz 1
SOUTH CAROLINA–PRESIDENT–DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY–NBC News/Marist: Clinton 65, Biden 20, Sanders 3, O’Malley 2, Webb 2
SOUTH CAROLINA–PRESIDENT–NBC News/Marist: Bush 48, Clinton 45; Clinton 46, Walker 46

The voters of Iowa agree with Obama, Clinton and the Democrats on all issues but two by a wide margin. Those two issues repealing Obamacare and sending ground troops to Iraq and Syria.
