NEW POLL: Buttigieg surges in poll ahead of New Hampshire primary

[Warlord]

MANCHESTER, N.H. — Democratic presidential hopeful and former South Bend, Ind., Mayor Pete Buttigieg's support has surged in New Hampshire ahead of the state's primary, according to a new WBZ/Boston Globe/Suffolk University daily tracking poll released on Thursday night.

Buttigieg's support shot up four points to 23 percent in the state over the past 24 hours, according to the survey. Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) still leads with 24 percent support, but the latest results put the two candidates closer in a virtual tie.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) came in with 13 percent support in the poll, and former Vice President Joe Biden garnered 11 percent support in the Granite State.

The latest tracking poll number comes as Buttigieg and Sanders are locked in a dead-heat in Iowa after the first-in-the-nation caucuses with 100 percent of the results in.

Buttigieg leads by a narrow margin with 26. 2 percent among Iowa State Delegate Equivalents, while Sanders is on his heels at 26.1 percent.

Despite the tight race, both campaigns declared victory on Thursday night.

"It's fantastic news to hear that we won," Buttigieg said at a CNN town hall in Manchester, N.H. "I want to say that Senator Sanders had a great night too, and I want to congratulate him and his supporters."

Meanwhile, senior Sanders campaign adviser Jeff Weaver released a statement touting what they said was a win in Iowa.

“Tonight's release of data by the Iowa Democratic Party confirms Sen. Bernie Sanders won the Iowa caucus,” Weaver said.

The WBZ/Boston Globe/Suffolk University daily tracking poll is made up of a two-day rolling sample of 500 likely New Hampshire Democratic primary voters. The poll's margin of error is plus or minus 4.4 percent.

It's a great podcast. He makes a lot of the points we were making in the SOTU thread. Debt, deficits etc. weren't even mentioned. Big spending Donald doesn't want to be honest with Americans.

Theres going to be another tie between Mayor Buttplug and Sanders.

Yeah, you are better than this Warlord. I am guilty of calling him Bootyjudge, so I am calling myself out too.

Sorry Buttigieg! Your ideas are trash, but I should be more mature.

If he wins the nomination it guarantees a Trump win. The thread title and replies are a good example of why he will never be President.

You could say a similar thing about any of the other candidates. With different details to why... But never say never.

He can always change his last name to avoid these kinds of nicknames. He's probably had to deal with people making fun of his last name his whole life.

Christians voted for a noted womanizer who brags about it and a multi- divorced man who cheated on his wives.

The difference being Trump when it comes down to it is a hetero family man with flaws. A sinner, that did not make his sin the center piece of his life.

Buttigeig is also a flawed family man and a war veteran. He was married at the Cathedral of Saint James Episcopal Church in South Bend, Indiana. Parents are teachers at Notre Dame.

You can try to normalize and propagandize homosexuality all you like but there is a large segment of Christians in this country that will not accept a gay man as President.

Saying Trump has flaws is an understatement. I will vote for Trump but Trump is a bad person. His whole life is one long lie.

The list of Trump being awful is endless whether it is personal life, the way he conducts himself in business dealings, the compulsive lying, etc. Trump is would be an evil villain in an Ayn Rand novel.

If Sanders barely wins, Bloomberg is going to be the nominee.

This kind of statement could hit a nerve with GOPA wing bases already somewhat demoralized after recent neoconish manifestaions.

Trump did not boast about cheating on his wife with a stripper. It was a private matter that should have been kept private. It was the news media that damaged the moral fabric of this country by exposing a private matter. Buttplug on the other hand is openly gay. Big difference here.

Trump despite his flaws is a family man and has done some good in this world compared to far worse choices or behavior I wanted or expect in his position. But it was all that was available compared to a list of evil scumbags.

If he was a family member or friend I would accept him and treat him as I would anyone else. Not accepting a person with a moral defect in a position that effectively represents the moral authority of this country does not make one a bigot.

Sad we have reached a time in history that people are becoming afraid to speak to the truth due to the militant gays calling everyone bigots.

He loves being in the media. He would alert them about his affair with Marla Maples while married to Ivana. He flew both of them to Aspen at the same time.

https://www.newsweek.com/how-many-ti...d-wives-780550

Trump's first marriage imploded on the covers of all of New York's tabloids after he brazenly took his mistress, Marla Maples, on a family vacation in Aspen along with his wife, Ivana, and attempted to hide her away until she approached Ivana and said, "I'm Marla and I love your husband. Do you?"

A famous issue of the New York Post in 1990 featured a quote from Maples plastered across its front page—"Best sex I ever had!" referring to Donald—while he was still married to Ivana. Trump famously pushed the story forward and called the tabloids to make sure his name stayed in the papers. At the time, he was a prominent New York real estate figure, but not known for much more than that.

In a recent memoir, titled Raising Trump, Ivana refers to the mistress as "freaking Marla."

Marla Maples (1993-1999)

When Trump was dating his one-time mistress, Marla Maples, he famously posed as his own spokesman, "John Miller," and told a People reporter that he'd never marry Maples, and that he had "three other girlfriends" at the time.

"He may be immoral- but he is OUR immoral guy!"

Actually Trump has boasted about his cheating. He did with Marla Maples. (edit I wrote this before Zippy pounced in that as well.)

Trump steals from people. He makes stiffing people a business strategy where if they want to get paid they have to sue to recoup costs.

Trump University was a boiler room crock if $#@!.

Trump even compulsively cheats at golf. I won't even say what should happen to golf cheaters because he is an elected official.

Trump is is the single biggest sleazeball ever to hold the presidency but Buttigieg being gay is the problem?

You can be against homosexuality. You can say it is disqualifying morally to be president. You can't say Pete Buttigieg isn't morally fit but then support Trump. Trump is vile trash.

[kahless]

....

A family man that cheated on his wife 15-30 years ago is not seen the same as an openly gay man in the here and now.

The choice being a very flawed example of a moral character or one that celebrates their immorality. Which one do you think people are going to pick, not how you would like people to think?

None of that really matters because people do not care about him cheating on his wives in the past as much as Pete being an openly gay man.

Democrats don't care about Clinton's abuse of women, Republicans don't care about Trump's. So I take neither party's dramatics seriously.
