John Kasich polling third in latest New Hampshire survey
Among those Republicans who say they watched, 33% say Trump did the best job in the debate, 28% Cruz, 13% Rubio.

It was indeed unusual for Trump.
The results came as other polls have shown Cruz surging in the race for the GOP nomination nationally and in the critical early-voting state of Iowa.
The jury is still out on whether the strategy will work. A “Trump effect”, if true, would find pre-election polls influenced by supporters too shy to publicly attest to supporting a blustery white candidate whose critics have called him a racist.
Trump’s campaign trail bombast – including extraordinary comments, among them a vulgar attack on Democratic frontrunner Hillary Clinton that stunned many observers – appears to have done him little if any harm in the polls as he solidifies the frontrunner status he has maintained since late July.
The remaining problem for Trump’s rivals is that voters are split on who that should be.
“Trump is an anomaly because of the overwhelming frustration voters have of Washington”, said Michael Dennehy, a New Hampshire Republican strategist who worked previously for Rick Perry’s presidential bid.
Overall, factoring in Democrats and independents, Trump’s rating still strike fear into Republican strategists as they look ahead to next November’s election. Trump has been under fire since Monday for making eyebrow-raising remarks about the former Secretary of State, including that he thought that her use of a bathroom break during the most recent Democratic debate was “disgusting” and that she “got [expletive]” during the 2008 election, when she lost to Barack Obama.
In a stark contrast to Trump’s quick stop in Portsmouth to pick up the endorsement of the New England Police Benevolent Association, Christie spends hours in coffee shops and has held numerous town halls where he fields questions on everything from Syria to healthcare to taxes.
The Quinnipiac poll was conducted from December 16-20 and has a margin of error for all registered voters of +/- 2.9 percentage points.
“People are acting like this is settled – it’s far from settled”, Huckabee told voters at the Iowa Veterans Home, according to the Des Moines Register. Ted Cruz now a clear – yet distant – second after a strong debate performance, a new CNN/ORC poll released on Wednesday has found.
The Iowa caucus is traditionally the first primary of the season, and along with New Hampshire’s primary, considered to be the most important. The last town hall he held here was in September.
It’s all part of an astounding and continued rise that has turned a candidate whose staying power experts initially dismissed into a still-overwhelming front-runner.

Christie tied U.S. Sen. The strategy has a long track record of success in early-voting states such as New Hampshire. Although this may seem like good news for Republicans, the fact is that Cruz is one of the most extreme candidates in the race. The Karl Rove-created American Crossroads Super Pac spent $8 million supporting Mitt Romney during the 2012 primaries and over $104 million through the general election.
