Clinton and Trump, who have been in the public spotlight for decades, enjoy nearly 100 percent name recognition.

According to a Monmouth University Poll released today, Clinton, 68, leads Sanders in Iowa by just five percentage points. On that question, Trump scored better than Senator Ted Cruz, a Baptist; former neurosurgeon Ben Carson, a Seventh Day Adventist; and Senator Marco Rubio, a Roman Catholic.
“It’s hovered in the 30s and 40 percent who say they don’t know enough to have an opinion about him”. Bernie Sanders (34 percent) and Martin O’Malley (four percent) in a trial ballot test.
In South Carolina, Clinton – largely fueled by the support of African American voters – beats her Democratic rival by more than a two-to-one margin. The New York billionaire developer’s 16-percentage-point lead is on par with several other S.C. polls taken over the past month.
Clinton is the top candidate of 47 percent of self-described Democrats in Tennessee, according to the same poll, a 3-to-1 lead over Bernie Sanders who has backing from 15 percent of Democrats. The poll also found that 61 percent of respondents do not want Walker to seek a third term, identical to the Marquette poll’s November results.
The Marquette poll, which is the most extensive in the state, also looked at presidential preferences among Wisconsinites who said they will vote in the primaries.
The race for president in Wisconsin appears to be centering on three Republican candidates, and two Democrats. Trump is followed by U.S. Sens.
While Donald Trump continues to lead other Republican presidential hopefuls in New Hampshire with just over a week until the first-in-the-nation-primary election, the businessman could lose support to other candidates in a hypothetical three-way general election match-up, a new poll has found. Feingold’s lead over Johnson has actually improved since November, expanding from a 12 point lead up to 13 points. And, of course, basic probability theory says that the odds of both Mr. Trump and Mr. Sanders being nominated are far less than the chances of either one of them being chosen.
