The latest Rasmussen Reports statewide telephone survey of Likely Republican Primary Voters shows Romney with 33% of the vote, followed by Gingrich at 22%. Paul now picks up 18% support, his best showing in the Granite State so far. Former Utah Governor Jon Huntsman comes in fourth with 10% of the vote, with no other candidate reaching double digits. (To see survey question wording, click here.)

Support for Romney, Gingrich and Huntsman is little changed from the previous survey, but Paul has now closed the 10-point gap between him and Gingrich to just four points.

Just saw it. Good news! We're up, but Newt and Mitt are down a couple points. Getting interesting!

I was just gong to post this!

New Hampshire: Romney 33%, Gingrich 22%, Paul 18%, Huntsman 10%..

Not keen on Huntsman being 10%, I see part of that as confused antiwar vote that really wants to come to Ron....

Gingrich: You're done, Son!

Who's next? Who's next? *swings bat menacingly at Perry, Bachmann, Frothy*

Huntsman is somewhat charismatic and he has been betting his entire campaign on NH, so it's natural he'll pull some voters here. Thankfully, I think he hurts Romney the most. Romney was polling >40 in NH recently.

I'd rather see Paul at 28%, but I suspect many Huntsman voters have Paul as a second or close third choice, so it's better than another candidate having those 10% point.

I honestly think Huntsman pulls more votes from Romney than Paul. All of his ads have been against him and he's running as an alternative to Romney.

It's much easier to go from Huntsman to Paul than Romney to Paul though. So it's good for us, Huntsman knocks off some of Romney's support, and maybe some of it comes to us when they don't see Huntsman winning on election day.

Isn't this the same poll that put us low in Iowa?

an Iowa victory alone will add at least 5 points to Ron in NH

The 10% in Iowa Rasmussen poll was taken on 11/15. This is from yesterday.

I disagree. 90% of Mitt's 33% are the easiest to convert. These are the people that either are supporting him because they think he will win, or they are supporting him because their social group (e.g. Country club, church group members) are seen as supporting him.

To close the gap, we need to spread the idea that Ron is supported by the people that people want to like them. I think coordinating a cadre of rich/successful supporters cleverly implying that Ron is the eventual winner could once and for all close the gap.

Tied for second, but pushing Mitt down quick. We will have a solid 2nd place next poll.


Edit: And the next poll is here....that was quick. As I predicted, solid second place!
Gingrich 22%, Paul 21%, Romney 16%!!!!!!!!!!

18% in New Hampshire, 21% in Iowa. Our momentum is building.

Double digits for Ron in a Rasmussen poll, that's like having 50%

When we win Iowa, Ron Paul will be seen as the anti-Romney candidate in NH, and most of Gingriches soft support will go to Paul.

But we have to win Iowa. The dec 16th Moneybomb is vitally important. Paul needs a $6 Million Day!

Wow this is a Rasmussen poll?...I think I might faint!

Two things I found interesting. Not sure if someone else mentioned it already.


Support for Romney, Gingrich and Huntsman is little changed from the previous survey, but Paul has now closed the 10-point gap between him and Gingrich to just four points.


The margin of sampling error is +/- 4 percentage points with a 95% level of confidence.

Essentially we could be tied with Newt.
