12/10/15, "Donald Trump Solidifies His Lead, but Leaves Many Nervous," NY Times Upshot, Megan Thee-Brenan
The poll was taken
largely before his statement on Monday afternoon proposing to
temporarily bar Muslims from entering the United States....
Mr. Trump commands the
support of 35 percent of Republican primary voters, leading his closest
competitors, Senator Ted Cruz of Texas (16 percent) and Ben Carson (13
percent) by a more than 2-to-1 margin. While Mr. Carson’s support was
cut in half since the last time The Times and CBS News polled on the
race in late October, Mr. Cruz has quadrupled his share. Senator Marco
Rubio of Florida’s support stands at 9 percent, with the rest of the
candidates at 4 percent or less.
Enthusiasm for and
attention to the campaign are higher among Republican primary voters
than among their Democratic counterparts....Majorities of Trump and Clinton supporters say their
decision is firm....
The nationwide
telephone poll was conducted Dec. 4-8 with 1,053 registered voters,
including 431 Republican primary voters and 384 Democratic primary
voters. The margin of sampling error is plus or minus 4 percentage
points for registered voters and plus or minus 6 percentage points each
for Republican and Democratic primary voters.
