Possibly, Save Jerseyans, at least in Iowa according to the Monmouth University poll’s latest results showing Trump stagnant and Ben Carson collapsing in the early caucus state while Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio have seen their support levels spike by 14-points and 7-points, respectively, since October:

Ted Cruz earns 24% support when likely caucusgoers are asked who they will support in the Republican contest. This marks a clear lead over Donald Trump (19%), Marco Rubio (17%), and Ben Carson (13%). Jeb Bush stands at 6% and Rand Paul is at 4%, while Carly Fiorina and John Kasich earn 3% each. None of the other six candidates tested in the poll draws more than 2% support.”

“Trump will need a huge organizational effort to get independent voters to show up in a contest where they have historically participated in small numbers,” explained Patrick Murray, director of the Monmouth Poll. “Without this dynamic, the underlying fundamentals appear to favor Cruz and Rubio.”
